Directed motion of liquid droplets is of considerable importance in various industrial processes. Despite extensive advances in this field of research, our understanding and the ability to control droplet dynamics at high temperature remain…
We study the distribution of colloidal particles confined in drying spherical droplets using both dynamic density functional theory (DDFT) and particle-based simulations. In particular, we focus on the advection-dominated regime typical of…
By varying the oil volume fraction, the microscopic droplet size and the macroscopic rheology of emulsions are investigated in a Taylor-Couette (TC) turbulent shear flow. Although here oil and water in the emulsions have almost the same…
We consider two dimensional dispersions of droplets of isotropic phase in a liquid with an XY-like order parameter, tilt, nematic, and hexatic symmetries being included. Strong anchoring boundary conditions are assumed. Textures for a…
We present novel numerical simulations investigating the evolution of liquid droplets into bag-like structures in turbulent airflows. The droplet bag breakup problem is of significance for many multiphase processes in scientific and…
The impact of droplets on an inclined falling liquid film is studied experimentally using high-speed imaging. The falling film is created on a flat substrate with controllable thicknesses and flow rates. Droplets with different sizes and…
Nanodroplets on a solid surface (i.e. surface nanodroplets) have practical implications for high-throughput chemical and biological analysis, lubrications, lab-on-chip devices, and near-field imaging techniques. Oil nanodroplets can be…
The presence of gas or vapour bubbles may strongly influence the forces that occur during the impact of a liquid mass onto a solid. Here, we study this effect numerically, in a well-controlled manner, by simulating the short-time…
A fluid droplet in general deforms, if subject to active driving, such as a finite slip velocity or active tractions on its interface. We show that these deformations and their dynamics can be computed analytically in a perturbation theory…
We consider the time evolution of a sessile drop of volatile partially wetting liquid on a rigid solid substrate. Thereby, the drop evaporates under strong confinement, namely, it sits on one of the two parallel plates that form a narrow…
The number of droplets which may be formed with a supersaturated vapor in presence of a gas cannot exceed a number proportional to (pv-pvo)4 where pv and pvo denote at the same temperature the pressure of the supersaturated vapor-gas…
The transport and deformation of confined droplets and flexible capsules are central to diverse phenomena and applications, from biological flows in microcapillaries to industrial processes in porous media. Inspired by experiments, we…
Reliable estimates of the fluxes of momentum, heat, and moisture at the air-sea interface are essential for accurate long term climate projections, as well as the prediction of short term weather events such as tropical cyclones. In recent…
We consider the dynamics of thin two-dimensional viscous droplets on chemically heterogeneous surfaces moving under the combined effects of slip, mass transfer and capillarity. The resulting long-wave evolution equation for the droplet…
Proceeding from the Clausius-Clapeyron equation, the relation is derived that establishes a correlation between the partial enthalpy of evaporation from binary solutions, concentrations of components, and equilibrium vapor pressures. The…
This work presents a numerical study of a diffusion flame in a reacting, two-dimensional, turbulent, viscous, multi-component, compressible mixing layer subject to a large favorable streamwise pressure gradient. The boundary-layer equations…
In this study the Leidenfrost temperature during spray cooling of very hot substrates is experimentally measured. The spray parameters, i.e. the drop diameters and velocities and the mass flux, are very accurately measured. Astonishingly,…
This work covers the effect of droplet deformation on its evaporation rate under convective flow conditions. The evaporation behavior of a freely deforming droplet of single component jet fuel surrogate, n-decane, is investigated by varying…
In this work, the van der Waals fluid model, a diffuse-interface model for liquid-vapor two-phase flows, is numerically investigated. The thermodynamic properties of the van der Waals fluid are first studied. Dimensional analysis is…
Controlling the shape and position of moving and pinned droplets on a solid surface is an important feature often found in microfluidic applications. However, automating them, e.g., for high-throughput applications, does rarely involve…
