Evaporation Modelling of a single droplet resting on a heated duct with air flow
 
Hello everyone,

I am trying to set up simulation of a single droplet evaporation which is initially at rest on a heated wall, and hot air is blowing from the other end.
The boundary conditions are : mass flow rate of inlet air and temp.
Temperature of the heated wall
Initial diameter of the droplet and its temp.

Now depending upon the interaction of the droplet with the wall, the contact region shape will change but I believe that is too complicated to model for me at present.
Basically what I did is created a two separate zones, and patched water in one of them and filled the rest of the domain with air.
I used Multiphase mixture model and I have attached a link for the case and data file of the project.

I am sure that I am not setting up the simulation correctly, and any suggestions on how to do this is highly appreciated.

Thanks
