Spin-affected reflexive and stretching separation of off-center droplet collision

Chengming He, Lianjie Yue, Peng Zhang

Recent studies have demonstrated the significant roles of droplet self-spin motion in affecting the head-on collision of binary droplets. In this paper, we present a computational…

Non-axisymmetric flow characteristics in Head-on Collision of Spinning Droplets

Chengming He, Peng Zhang

Effects of spinning motion on the bouncing and coalescence between a spinning droplet and a non-spinning droplet undergoing the head-on collision were numerically studied by using…

Approximate Reconstruction of Torsional Potential Energy Surface based on Voronoi Tessellation

Chengming He, Yicheng Chi, Peng Zhang

Torsional modes within a complex molecule containing various functional groups are often strongly coupled so that the harmonic approximation and one-dimensional torsional treatment…

Unified Viscous-to-inertial Scaling in Liquid Droplet Coalescence

Xi Xia, Chengming He, Peng Zhang

This letter presents a theory on the coalescence of two spherical liquid droplets that are initially stationary. The evolution of the radius of a liquid neck formed upon coalescenc…

Viscous Dissipation, Helicity and Enstrophy of Bouncing Droplets undergoing Off-center Collision

Chengming He, Xi Xia, Peng Zhang

The off-center collision of binary bouncing droplets of equal size was studied numerically by a volume-of-fluid (VOF) method with two marker functions, which has been validated by…

Scalings in Coalescence of Liquid Droplets

Xi Xia, Chengming He, Peng Zhang

This letter presents a scaling theory of the coalescence of two viscous spherical droplets. An initial value problem was formulated and analytically solved for the evolution of the…
