Hysteresis in the freeze-thaw cycle of emulsions and suspensions
Wilfried Raffi, Jochem G. Meijer, Detlef Lohse
Freeze-thaw cycles can be regularly observed in nature in water and are essential in industry and science. Objects present in the medium will interact with either an advancing soli…
Impacting spheres: from liquid drops to elastic beads
Saumili Jana, John Kolinski, Detlef Lohse +1
A liquid drop impacting a non-wetting rigid substrate laterally spreads, then retracts, and finally jumps off again. An elastic solid, by contrast, undergoes a slight deformation,…
Why and when merging surface nanobubbles jump
Yixin Zhang, Xiangyu Zhang, Detlef Lohse
Gas bubble accumulation on substrates reduces the efficiency of many physicochemical processes, such as water electrolysis. For microbubbles, where buoyancy is negligible, coalesce…
Upstream motion of oil droplets in co-axial Ouzo flow due to Marangoni forces
Steffen Bisswanger, Duarte Rocha, Sebastian Dehe +4
To explore the physicochemical hydrodynamics of phase-separating ternary liquids (Ouzo-type), a binary oil-ethanol mixture is introduced into a co-flowing stream of water. Oil drop…
Internal flow and concentration in neighbouring evaporating binary droplets and rivulets
Pim J. Dekker, Duarte Rocha, Christian Diddens +1
In this paper, the evaporation of neighbouring multi-component droplets or rivulets - often found in applications such as inkjet printing, spray cooling, and pesticide delivery - i…
Impact of boiling liquid droplets: Vapor entrapment suppression
Bernardo Palacios-Muñiz, Edgar Ortega-Roano, Yee Li +3
There hardly is a fluid mechanics phenomenon attracting more attention than the impact of a droplet, due to its undeniable beauty, many applications and the numerous challenges it…
