Summary
An analytical/numerical model is described for the evaporation and burning of a spherical fuel droplet in a subsonic crossflow. The external gaseous flowfield is represented using an approximate compressible potential solution, while the internal flowfield of the droplet is represented by the classical Hill's spherical vortex. This allows numerical solution for the external boundary layer and diffusion flame characteristics to be made, from which the droplet's effective drag coefficient, rate of mass loss, size, and flame shape are determined. Comparison with experimental data indicate good agreement, and thus the potential for such simplified models in performing parametric studies.
