Colloid-Colloid Interactions Impact Network Morphology of Confined Colloidal Drying Patterns
Andreas Andersen Hennig, Natalia Kizilova, Ilaria Beechey-Newman +1
Colloidal suspensions that are confined between two closely spaced plates and left to evaporate slowly form maze-like labyrinth patterns in the final stage of evaporation. The fing…
Transparent 3D-printed flow cells for porous media studies with proof-of-concept on two-phase flow-reversal asymmetry
Yann Dumay, J. Kevin Pierce, Julie Delhaie +2
Porous media experiments commonly rely on geometry-controlled and optically transparent experimental flow cells. Examples include studies of flow structure, solute mixing, multipha…
Heat and super-diffusive melting fronts in unsaturated porous media
Eirik G. Flekkøy, Erika Eiser, Alex Hansen
When water is present in a medium with pore sizes in a range around 10nm the corresponding freezing point depression will cause long range broadening of a melting front. Describing…
Confined colloidal droplets dry to form circular mazes
Ilaria Beechey-Newman, Natalya Kizilova, Andreas Andersen Hennig +2
During drying, particle-laden sessile droplets will leave so-called coffee-stain rings behind. This phenomenon is well-known and well-understood (Deegan et al., Nature 389, 827-829…
