The Marangoni effect refers to fluid flow induced by a gradient in surface tension at a fluid-fluid interface. We determine the full three-dimensional Marangoni flow generated by a non-uniform surface tension profile at the interface of a…
The dissolution or growth of a droplet in a host liquid is an important part for processes like chemical extraction, chromatography or emulsification. In this work we look at the dissolution of a pair of vertically aligned droplets immersed…
We develop a model for the thermodynamics and evaporation dynamics of aerosol droplets of a liquid such as water, surrounded by the gas. When the temperature and the chemical potential (or equivalently the humidity) are such that the vapour…
The article demonstrates that the internal circulation velocity and patterns in sessile droplets on superhydrophobic surfaces is governed by the surface curvature. Particle Image Velocimetry reveals that increasing convexity deteriorates…
The Marangoni instability of cylindrical drops in vertical Hele-Shaw cells immersed in stably stratified liquids has been studied previously, yet the underlying mechanism has not been explored thoroughly. Here we study the onset of the…
The interface between a pure liquid and its vapor is usually close to saturation temperature, hence strongly hindering any thermocapillary flow. In contrast, when the gas phase contains an inert gas such as air, surface-tension-driven…
The evaporation of sessile droplets placed in close proximity is influenced by complex vapor-vapor interactions, producing a shielding effect that can significantly extend droplet lifetimes. This study presents a systematic experimental…
This paper presents an experimental study on thermal transport to single water droplets evaporating on heated bi-phobic surfaces consisting of a superhydrophobic matrix with a circular hydrophobic pattern with strong contact line pinning. A…
We consider evaporation of pure liquid drops on a thermally conductive substrate. Two evaporative models are considered: one that concentrates on the liquid phase in determining evaporative flux, and the other one that centers on the…
The evolution of a single raindrop falling below a cloud is governed by fluid dynamics and thermodynamics fundamentally transferable to planetary atmospheres beyond modern Earth's. Here, we show how three properties that characterize…
The evaporation of a sessile droplet spontaneously induces an internal capillary liquid flow. The surface-tension driven minimisation of surface area and/or surface-tension differences at the liquid-gas interface caused by…
An analysis of the projectile motion in stagnant air is presented for an evaporating respiratory micro-droplet which has been ejected from the mouth as an isolated droplet. It is assumed that the air resistance is a nonlinear function of…
We investigate the dynamics of micron-scale drops pushed across a hydrophobic or superhydrophobic surface. The velocity profile across the drop varies from quadratic to linear with increasing height, indicating a crossover from a sliding to…
We numerically study the behavior of self-propelled liquid droplets whose motion is triggered by a Marangoni-like flow. This latter is generated by variations of surfactant concentration which affect the droplet surface tension promoting…
Capillarity always favors drop fusion. Nevertheless sessile drops from different but completely miscible liquids often do not fuse instantaneously upon contact. Rather, intermediate non-coalescence is observed. Two separate drop bodies,…
Leidenfrost drops were recently found to host strong dynamics. In the present study, we investigate both experimentally and theoretically the {flows structures and stability} inside a Leidenfrost water drop as it evaporates, starting with a…
The study of vapor bubble growth following droplet vaporization in a superheated liquid involves research areas such as hydrodynamics, heat transfer, mass transfer, and thermodynamics. The interplay between these multiscale aspects is…
We discuss a thin film evolution equation for a wetting evaporating liquid on a smooth solid substrate. The model is valid for slowly evaporating small sessile droplets when thermal effects are insignificant, while wettability and…
We present an experimental and theoretical description of the kinetics of coalescence of two water drops on a plane solid surface. The case of partial wetting is considered. The drops are in an atmosphere of nitrogen saturated with water…
The evaporation of sessile drops in quiescent air is usually governed by vapour diffusion. For contact angles below $90^\circ$, the evaporative flux from the droplet tends to diverge in the vicinity of the contact line. Therefore, the…
