Abstract
The dynamics of evaporation of wetting droplets has been investigated experimentally in an extended range of drop sizes, in order to provide trends relevant for a theoretical analysis. A model is proposed, which generalises Tanner's law, allowing us to smooth out the singularities both in dissipation and in evaporative flux at the moving contact line. A qualitative agreement is obtained, which represents a first step towards the solution of a very old, complex problem.
