Book Theoretical Study of Drop Impact on Structured Surfaces

Download or read book Theoretical Study of Drop Impact on Structured Surfaces written by Soseh Zadoorian and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Droplet impact on superhydrophobic surfaces has been studied extensively due to its abundance and importance in natural and industrial phenomena. As superhydrophobic surfaces may lose their superhydrophobicity due to droplet impact in many applications, the robustness of the superhydrophobic surfaces is important. The superhydrophobicity of a surface is characterized by the surface chemistry and roughness. The liquid on a rough surface forms a liquid-air interface due to the existence of air inside the surface cavities. To have a robust superhydrophobic surface, the liquid should not wet the entire surface cavities, but only the top of surface asperities. Thus, the liquid will be supported by a liquid-solid and a liquid-air interface. Liquid penetration into the air cavities will lead to an irreversible transition. To prevent this wetting transition, a design criterion for regularly patterned rough surfaces is established based on a pressure balance on the liquid-air interface. The effective pressure terms on the liquid-air interface for an impacting droplet condition are introduced first. To avoid liquid penetration, the wetting pressure, which is the Water-hammer pressure, must be smaller than the non-wetting pressure, which is the Laplace pressure. In this work, these two pressure terms are modified for rough structured surfaces. The Water-hammer pressure for structured surfaces is derived based on two different approaches, the impacting droplet model and the electrical circuit model. According to the derived equation for the Water-hammer pressure on structured surfaces, a correlation for the water-hammer coefficient is introduced for structured surfaces. The Laplace pressure on structured surfaces is modified based on two simplifying assumptions for the shape of the liquid-air interface. A spherical cap shape is assumed for the liquid-air interface and a sagging wetting transition mechanism is considered.It is shown that both pressure terms can be derived as a function of surface structures. Thus the pressure balance results in a design criterion for the surface structures. In addition to the pressure balance, another design criterion is presented based on the limiting penetration depth for the liquid-air interface inside the surface cavities at the moment of impact." --

Book Imaging and Analysis of Water Drop Impacts on Microstructured Surfaces

Download or read book Imaging and Analysis of Water Drop Impacts on Microstructured Surfaces written by Matheu Alec James Broom and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Thesis describes the study of water drop impacts on microstructured surfaces. Previous studies of liquid droplets impacting on solid surfaces have mostly been concerned with smooth flat surfaces. The introduction of an array of micrometre-scale pillars (microstructure) adds new research avenues. This work systematically studies the effect of the microstructure design on droplet impact phenomena. The experiments in this study include over 800 high speed videos of water drop impacts on 23 different surface designs. Droplets with an average diameter D0 = 2.51 ± 0.04 mm are produced with 11 discrete impact velocities in the range of 1.5 - 2.5 m/s producing a range of impact Weber numbers (We) from 50 to 250. Soft-lithography methods are used for the production of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) surfaces. The microstructures consist of 20 μm width pillars of both circular and square cross sectional shape arranged in square arrays. A selection of pillar spacings (40 μm, 60 μm and 80 μm) and pillar heights (15 μm, 22 μm and 30 μm) is investigated. The creation of a dual view time-synchronized high-speed imaging system is demonstrated. Using this system, drop impact events can be recorded at frame rates between 10,000 and 42,000 frames per second (fps), with an exposure time between 10 μs and 2 μs. High magnification optics produce a spatial resolution range of ± 20 μm to ± 4 μm. A Matlab image processing script is created for the automatic extraction of data during real time (25 fps) playback. These methods are first employed to study phenomena that are observed promptly after the impact event (

Book Drop Impact on an Inclined and a Moving Surface

Download or read book Drop Impact on an Inclined and a Moving Surface written by Salman Buksh Sookran and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis has made progress in two different areas related to drop impact onto a surface. Firstly, a systematic experimental study has been performed to understand asymmetric spreading of low and high surface tension liquids on a moving surface. A new time evolution model for droplet spreading on a moving surface was developed. This model regardless the value of surface tension of the liquid can predict the spreading of low viscous (1-4cSt) liquids on a moving surface. Secondly, liquids with viscosity (1-5cSt) and surface tension (17.4-72.8mNm) were used to study the drop impact on moving and inclined surface. Experiments performed with similar normal (0.9-2.9m/s) and tangential (0.8-2.9m/s) velocities on both surfaces to test our hypothesis that spreading/splashing for these two surface conditions should be same. Results indicates that our hypothesis is true, except for some special conditions when, normal and tangential velocities are greater than the range of our analysis.

Book Droplet Interactions and Spray Processes

Download or read book Droplet Interactions and Spray Processes written by Grazia Lamanna and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-03-14 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a selection of contributions to the DIPSI workshop 2019 (Droplet Impact Phenomena & Spray Investigations) as well as recent progress of the Int. Research Training Group “DROPIT”.The DIPSI workshop, which is now at its thirteenth edition, represents an important opportunity to share recent knowledge on droplets and sprays in a variety of research fields and industrial applications. The research training group “DROPIT” is focused on droplet interaction technologies where microscopic effects influence strongly macroscopic behavior. This requires the inclusion of interface kinetics and/or a detailed analysis of surface microstructures. Normally, complicated technical processes cover the underlying basic mechanisms, and therefore, progress in the overall process modelling can hardly be gained. Therefore, DROPIT focuses on the underlying basic processes. This is done by investigating different spatial and/or temporal scales of the problems and by linking them through a multi-scale approach. In addition, multi-physics are required to understand e.g. problems for droplet-wall interactions, where porous structures are involved.
