Intricate Role of Thermal Properties and Volatility in Droplet Spreading: A Generalization to Tanner's Law
Zhenying Wang, George Karapetsas, Prashant Valluri +1
Droplet spreading is ubiquitous and plays a significant role in liquid-based energy systems, thermal management devices, and microfluidics. While the spreading of non-volatile drop…

Spreading and retraction dynamics of sessileevaporating droplets comprising volatile binary mixtures
A. G. L. Williams. G. Karapetsas, D. Mamalis, K. Sefiane +2
The dynamics of thin volatile droplets comprising of binary mixtures deposited on a heated substrate are investigated. Using lubrication theory, we develop a novel one-sided model…
