In this study, we numerically investigate the external gaseous flow around an evaporating sessile droplet, especially the interaction between different transport mechanisms of the evaporation-induced flow and evaporation dynamics. A sharp-interface algebraic volume-of-fluid (SA-VOF) solver which inc...
