This work investigates the capillary rise dynamics of highly wetting liquids in a divergent U-tube in the microgravity conditions provided by 78th European Space Agency (ESA) parabolic flight. This configuration produces a capillary-driven…
The flow near a moving contact line is primarily governed by three key parameters: viscosity ratio, dynamic contact angle, and inertia. While the behavior of dynamic contact angles has been extensively studied in earlier experimental and…
The flow near a moving contact line depends on the dynamic contact angle, viscosity ratio, and capillary number. We report experiments involving immersing a plate into a liquid bath, concurrently measuring the interface shape, interfacial…
The motion of a gas-liquid interface along a solid wall is influenced by the capillary forces resulting from the interface's shape and its interaction with the solid, where it forms a dynamic contact angle. Capillary models play a…
We investigate the radial thermocapillary flow driven by a laser-heated microbead in partial wetting at the water-air interface. Particular attention is paid to the evolution of the convective flow patterns surrounding the hot sphere as the…
We developed a sharp interface level-set approach for two-phase immiscible flow with moving contact lines. The Cox-Voinov model is used to describe the moving contact line. A piecewise linear interface method is used to construct the signed…
In this article, we construct a novel 1D-model of microfluidic laminar flows in tapered circular and rectangular channels assuming the flow in channels fully developed. In the model, we take into account the inertance and dynamic pressure…
We study the forced displacement of a fluid-fluid interface in a three-dimensional channel formed by two parallel solid plates. Using a Lattice-Boltzmann method, we study situations in which a slip velocity arises from diffusion effects…
The contact angle between a gas-liquid interface and a solid surface is a function of the dynamic conditions of the contact line. Classic steady correlations link the contact angle to the contact line velocity. However, it is not clear…
We account for the presence of surface charges towards describing variations in the dynamic contact angle of an advancing liquid-gas meniscus. Starting from the thin-film based formalism, we present closed-form analytical expressions…
The conventional no-slip boundary condition leads to a non-integrable stress singularity at a moving contact line. This makes numerical simulations challenging, especially when capillary effects are essential for the dynamics of the flow.…
Curtain coating, in which a moving plate is coated by a falling liquid sheet, sustains advancing contact lines at large capillary numbers Ca ~ O(1), based on plate speed. Steady states exist up to a critical capillary number, beyond which…
A moving contact line occurs at the intersection of an interface formed between two immiscible liquids and a solid. According to viscous theory, the flow is entirely governed by just two parameters, the viscosity ratio, $\lambda$, and the…
The problem of two-phase flow in straight capillaries of polygonal cross section displays many of the dynamic characteristics of rapid interfacial motions associated with pore-scale displacements in porous media. Fluid inertia is known to…
Capillary-driven transport offers a simple, self-sustained alternative to externally pumped microfluidic systems, yet achieving precise control of such flows remains challenging. We experimentally and theoretically investigate capillary…
In this stub article, we show that laminar quasi-periodically developed flow is characterized by velocity and pressure modes which decay exponentially along the main flow direction. As the amplitudes of these modes exhibit streamwise…
Self-driven nanofluidic flow at the liquid-air interface is a non-intuitive phenomenon. This flow behaviour was not driven by classical pressure difference or evaporation only. Depending on the position of the nanofluidic pore we can…
We present an experimental and numerical study of immiscible two-phase flow in 3-dimensional (3D) porous media to find the relationship between the volumetric flow rate ($Q$) and the total pressure difference ($\Delta P$) in the steady…
Microfluidic devices offer unique opportunities to directly observe multiphase flow in porous media. However, as a direct representation of flow in geological pore networks, conventional microfluidics face several challenges. One is that…
This work investigates the wetting dynamics of cryogenic fluids in inertia-dominated conditions. We experimentally characterized an oscillating gas-liquid interface of liquid nitrogen in a partially filled U-shaped quartz tube. The…
