A stationary flow of three-component gas in a laminar boundary layer on a flat plate is considered at adiabatic evaporation of a two-component liquid film. Numerical modelling were carried out at atmospheric pressure, air flow velocity of 2 m/s and temperature from 20 to 500 °C in the whole range of concentrations of a low-boiling component of binary solutions: ethanol/water, acetone/water, and acetone/ethanol. Data on the local specific evaporation rate of ethanol/water and acetone/water solutions into dry air and superheated mixture of ethanol, acetone and water vapors were obtained depending on the temperature of the inlet flow. Composition of superheated vapor mixture was taken to be equilibrium relative to the liquid solution. With an increase in the molar fraction of ethanol or acetone in the water solution, the evaporation rate increases, and when evaporated into superheated vapor, the growth of evaporation rate with increasing vapor temperature is significantly higher than at evaporation into air. With an increase in ethanol or acetone concentration in the liquid solution, the inversion temperature decreases from down to 155…165°C.
