An infrared thermographic technique is developed to obtain the transient solid surface temperatures surrounding the droplet during vaporization. This technique is appealing because it is non-intrusive, detailing the surface response to the droplet without affecting the evaporation process. Surface recovery can also be monitored using this thermographic method. The transient temperature distribution of a Macor solid is detailed. It is found that contact temperature is held in the vicinity of the droplet during the majority of the droplet's evaporation until the droplet thickness diminishes greatly, where upon the temperature of the solid surrounding the droplet begins to rise. The non-dimensional radius of influence of droplet cooling is also detailed. The data obtained on the cooling effect induced on aluminium and Macor from previous studies is used in concret with new data obtained on a quartz surface to characterize the induced cooling of a hot surface by an evaporation droplet. The role of the droplet size and shape is investigated for various high and low thermal conductivity surfaces. Droplet evaporation time,surface heat transfer coefficient and droplet shape parameter are also examined.
