A unified relationship for evaporation kinetics at low Mach numbers

A unified relationship for evaporation kinetics at low Mach numbers

Evaporation plays a key role in applications such as cooling and desalination. Here, the authors experimentally demonstrated a unifying relationship between dimensionless flux and driving potential for evaporation kinetics under different working conditions.
