Morphology of ice structures induced by a freezing rivulet
Hélie de Miramon, Wladimir Sarlin, Christophe Josserand +2
We investigate the solidification of a water rivulet flowing over a cold inclined substrate and the resulting formation of three-dimensional ice structures. Using a controlled hydr…
The macroscopic contact angle of water on ice
W. Sarlin, D. V. Papa, R. Grivet +4
Wettability quantifies the affinity of a liquid over a substrate, and determines whether the surface is repellent or not. When both the liquid and the solid phases are made of the…
Free surface topography of capillary flows using spatiotemporal phase shifting profilometry
Hélie de Miramon, Wladimir Sarlin, Axel Huerre +3
We present a novel experimental technique to characterize the free surface of capillary flows adapted from the Spatio-Temporal Phase Shifting Profilometry (ST-PSP) method introduce…
Freezing receding contact lines
Rodolphe Grivet, Axel Huerre, Thomas Séon +2
We investigate experimentally the receding of a contact line when a Peltier module is pulled out of a water bath at constant speed, while a ice layer is also growing at constant sp…
Role of melting and solidification in the spreading of an impacting water drop
Wladimir Sarlin, Rodolphe Grivet, Julien Xu +3
The present study reports experiments of water droplet impacting on ice or on a cold metallic substrate, with the aim of understanding the effect of phase change on the impingement…
Making superhydrophobic splashes by surface cooling
R. Grivet, A. Huerre, T. Séon +1
We study experimentally the enhancement of splashing due to solidification. Investigating the impact of water drops on dry smooth surfaces, we show that the transition velocity to…
Contact Line Catch Up by Growing Ice Crystals
R. Grivet, A. Monier, A. Huerre +2
The effect of freezing on contact line motion is a scientific challenge in the understanding of the solidification of capillary flows. In this letter, we experimentally investigate…
Solidification of a rivulet: shape and temperature fields
Axel Huerre, Antoine Monier, Thomas Séon +1
The freezing of a water rivulet begins with a water thread flowing over a very cold surface, is naturally followed by the growth of an ice layer and ends up with a water rivulet fl…
Freezing a rivulet
Antoine Monier, Axel Huerre, Christophe Josserand +1
We investigate experimentally the formation of the particular ice structure obtained when a capillary trickle of water flows on a cold substrate. We show that after a few minutes t…
