Abstract

The aim of this study is to confirm the existence of a spontaneous evaporation molecular mass flux which takes a constant value independent of the degree of net evaporation/condensation. We carried out the numerical simulation based on the mean field kinetic theory during net evaporation/condensation and estimated the evaporation and reflection molecular mass fluxes by using a pair of boundaries. The simulation results showed that the reflection molecular mass flux varies with the increase of the degree of nonequilibrium, and the evaporation molecular mass flux takes a constant value during net evaporation and condensation.
