contents Evaporation of multicomponent droplets is important in a wide range of applications, albeit complex, and requires a careful investigation. We experimentally and numerically investigate the evaporation characteristics of spherical, ethanol-water droplets with different initial concentration ratios in the acoustic levitation field. Imaging techniques and infrared thermometry are used for acquiring volume and surface temperature variations of droplets, reflecting their mass and heat transfer characteristics. Numerical simulations are conducted using modified parameters based on a theoretical model to consider the effect of the acoustic field. The calculation results show good agreement with the experimental data. The concentration and temperature distribution within the droplet is further investigated based on the numerical results.
