A model has been developed to investigate the evaporation effect of water droplets in a uniform duct flow under gas turbine compressor environments. The temperature of a water droplet has been calculated by treating the droplet as a lumped mass with a representative temperature uniformly distributed in the droplet. The proposed model consists of two steps. The 1st step is the heat transfer calculation between a water droplet and surrounding air flow and the 2nd step is the calculation to take the latent heat of vaporization into consideration.
