Boundary‐layer solutions are given for heat and mass transfer at mobile interfaces. The results are asymptotically valid for small thermal and material diffusivities, or for short exposure times. Phase breakup and coalescence are formally included, but Marangoni effects are not. Effects of rapid mass transfer, chemical reactions, and variable boundary conditions are evaluated. The treatment is a generalization of the penetration and surface‐renewal theories.
