Droplet evaporation is a widely encountered heat and mass transfer phenomenon. Due to its 3D in nature, it is challenging to simulate the complex 3D droplet evaporation process. Here, we propose an axisymmetric lattice Boltzmann (LB) model to simulate the dynamics of contact line motion during sessi...
