The behavior of droplets collision in a flash evaporation ambient widely exists in various fields. In this work, the deformation analysis and thermal analysis models were established under the condition of flash via a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method. First, the effects of initial temperature and collision velocity on heat and mass transfer during evaporation were considered. Then, the morphology change of the liquid phase, the mass change, and their influencing factors during the droplet evaporation process were analyzed. A very good agreement is observed between the results of this paper and the published literature. The results show that the interaction between the initial collision velocity and the initial temperature affects the heat and mass transfer performance.Theinitial collision velocity influences the heat and mass transfer process of the evaporating droplet by affecting the deformation characteristics of the droplet. The collision velocity and the liquid temperature have a competitive relationship with the evaporation process. Under a low-initial temperature, the collision velocity played a leading role in the evaporation of the liquid phase and the mass transfer of steam.
