Abstract
This paper is concerned with the evaporation of single drops of binary mixtures composed of an explosive solute in a solvent (ammonium azide in water and ozone in liquid oxygen) and a spontaneous flammable solute (white phosphorus) in carbon disulphide. The equations are general and may be applied to more complex systems. The work is easily expanded to groups of drops to simulate a spray and to sprays if a distribution function is known.
