Recent experiments with droplets impacting a macro-textured superhydrophobic surfaces revealed new regimes of bouncing with a remarkable reduction of the contact time. We present here a comprehensive numerical study that reveals the physics…
We experimentally investigate impact dynamics of a microliter water droplet on a hydrophobic microgrooved surface. The surface is fabricated using photolithography and high-speed visualization is employed to record the time-varying droplet…
Viscous droplets impinging on soft substrates may exhibit several distinct behaviours including repeated bouncing, wetting, and hovering, i.e., spreading and retracting after impact without bouncing back or wetting. We experimentally study…
Droplet impact on solid surfaces is a fluid phenomenon widely involved in additive manufacturing, heat management, and coating, in which the ability to exert control over the impact dynamics and duration is critical. While past studies have…
Droplet impact in airflow environments is ubiquitous in nature and industry, making the understanding of this multiphase behavior crucial for technologies such as anti-icing and spray cooling. In this study, the dynamics of droplet impact…
Microdrop impact and spreading phenomena are explored as an interface formation process using a recently developed computational framework. The accuracy of the results obtained from this framework for the simulation of high deformation…
Experimental investigations were carried out to elucidate the role of surface wettability and inclination on the post impact dynamics of droplets. Maximum spreading diameter and spreading time were found to decrease with increasing…
Existing models for droplet impact prescribe the spreading contact time and effective spreading velocity from asymptotic arguments, which prevents a self-consistent prediction of the maximum spreading ratio across regimes. Here, the total…
Breakup of liquid drops occurs in several natural and industrial settings. Fully resolved Volume of Fluid based simulations presented in this study reveal the complete flow physics and droplet dynamics that lead to the breakup of a drop in…
Droplet impact phenomena are ubiquitous in both nature and industry. Existing studies of droplet impact have focused on the kinematics of droplet impact on flat surfaces, whereas research on cylindrical surfaces remains relatively limited,…
Predictive modelling of agglomeration in spray drying and particle capture in aerosol scavenging requires a fundamental understanding of droplet-particle collisions. The study complements prior work by investigating mid-air collisions…
In the present paper, experimental and numerical studies of interaction between different liquid droplets with different hot metal surfaces had been carried out and the obtained results were interpreted using graphs and pictures. Droplet…
Liquid wetting of a surface is omnipresent in nature and the advance of micro-fabrication and assembly techniques in recent years offers increasing ability to control this phenomenon. Here, we identify how surface roughness influences the…
The dynamics of drop impact on a rigid surface -- omnipresent in nature and technology -- strongly depends on the droplet's velocity, its size, and its material properties. The main characteristics are the droplet's force exerted on the…
Droplet impact behavior has attracted much attention recently due to its academic significance and diverse industrial applications. This study employs the lattice Boltzmann method to simulate the impact of a droplet on a hydrophobic plate…
Existing energy balance models, which estimate maximum droplet spreading, insufficiently capture the droplet spreading from low to high Weber and Reynolds numbers and contact angles. This is mainly due to the simplified definition of the…
