RELAXATION PHENOMENA IN NONSTATIONARY EVAPORATION OF LIQUID
O. G. Martynenko and P. P. Khramtsov UDC 533.6.011:536.423.4 Based on the phenomenological theory - the thermodynamics of irreversible processes - an analysis of nonstationary process of liquid evaporation is carried out. It is shown that a sharp change in the heat-flux magnitude causes the occurrence of processes of oscillating relaxation of vapor generation in the system. Academic Scientific Complex "A. V.
