Query: Evaporation and condensation of spherical interstellar clouds.
  Self-consistent models with saturated heat conduction and cooling   Shortened version: The fate of IS clouds embedded in a hot tenuous medium
depends on whether the clouds suffer from evaporation or whether material
condensates onto them. Analytical solutions for the rate of evaporative mass
loss from an isolated spherical cloud embedded in a hot tenuous gas are deduced
by Cowie & McKee (1977). In order to test the validity of the analytical
results for more realistic IS conditions the full hydrodynamical equations must
be treated. Therefore, 2D numerical simulations of the evolution of IS clouds
%are performed with different internal density structures and surrounded by a
hot plasma reservoir. Self-gravity, interstellar heating and cooling effects
and heat conduction by electrons are added. Classical thermal conductivity of a
fully ionized hydrogen plasma and saturated heat flux are considered. Using
pure hydrodynamics and classical heat flux we can reproduce the analytical
results. Heat flux saturation reduces the evaporation rate by one order of
magnitude below the analytical value. The evolution changes totally for more
realistic conditions when interstellar heating and cooling effects stabilize
the self-gravity. Evaporation then turns into condensation, because the
additional energy by heat conduction can be transported away from the interface
and radiated off efficiently from the cloud's inner parts. I.e. that the
saturated heat flux consideration is inevitable for IS clouds embedded in hot
tenuous gas. Various consequences are discussed in the paper.
