Thermocapillary migrating odd viscous droplets
arXiv:2306.00224 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.131.198201
Abstract
A droplet of a classical liquid surrounded by a cold gas placed on a hot substrate is accompanied by unremitting internal circulations, while the droplet remains immobile. Two identical cells with opposite sense of circulation form in the interior due to the thermocapillary effect induced by the gas and substrate temperature difference. Under the same conditions, a droplet composed of an odd viscous liquid exerts a compressive stress on the cell rotating in one sense and tensile on the cell rotating in the opposite sense resulting in a tilted droplet configuration. A sufficiently strong thermal gradient leads the contact angles to overcome hysteresis effects and induces droplet migration.
