Abstract

Droplet evaporation is currently widely used in medical diagnosis, materials and other aspects, but there is still little research on Baijiu. Previous research found that the deposition pattern of feng-flavor Baijiu was highly sensitive to temperature and humidity conditions. Therefore, this study explored the best temperature and humidity environment and materials in the evaporation process of feng-flavor Baijiu. The findings reveal that the temperature significantly modulates the evaporation rate of feng-flavor Baijiu droplets, while elevated humidity leads to incomplete deposition patterns. Furthermore, substrates with varying hydrophilic properties produce markedly different deposition morphologies. Optimal conditions were identified as 25 °C, 60% relative humidity (RH), and an indium tin oxide (ITO) substrate. These insights provide a novel approach for quality assessment in feng-flavor Baijiu production.
