The purpose of this work is to evaluate heat and mass transfer during the evaporation of a negligible thickness liquid film of acetone wetting the walls of a vertical or inclined channel, general conservation equations and the associated boundary conditions are discretized by means of the finite volume method and the pressure-velocity coupling is treated with SIMPLER algorithm. The study focuses on the analysis of the effect of the velocity and the relative humidity of the inlet air and the channel inclination angle, on the hydrodynamic thermal and mass behavior of the flow of moist air.
