Summary:Available experimental data and theory for heat and mass transport in turbulent liquid jets are critically reviewed. It is shown that masstransfer in turbulent jets is an entrance region problem and that experimental data must be analyzed accordingly. Finite difference numerical solution of the entrance region problems shows that turbulent transport has a minor effect on mass transfer for the parameter range investigated. New experimental data for evaporation from turbulent jets are presented for a 4 mm dia. jet. Comparisons are made with data from various condensation studies, and an attempt made to explain the trends and apparent discrepancies.
