Asymmetric freezing of a sliding droplet on an inclined surface
Sivanandan Kavuri, George Karapetsas, Chander Shekhar Sharma +1
We investigate the asymmetric freezing of a liquid droplet sliding on an inclined cold surface using numerical simulations based on the lubrication approximation. The combined effe…
Evaporation of sessile drops on a heated superhydrophobic substrate
Sivanandan Kavuri, Chander Shekhar Sharma, George Karapetsas +1
We experimentally investigate the evaporation dynamics of sessile water droplets on a micro-nano textured superhydrophobic aluminum substrate at various temperatures using shadowgr…
Evaporation-driven coalescence of two droplets undergoing freezing
Sivanandan Kavuri, George Karapetsas, Chander Shekhar Sharma +1
We examine the evaporation-induced coalescence of two droplets undergoing freezing by conducting numerical simulations employing the lubrication approximation. When two sessile dro…
Freezing of sessile droplet and frost halo formation
Sivanandan Kavuri, George Karapetsas, Chander Shekhar Sharma +1
The freezing of a sessile droplet unveils fascinating physics, characterised by the emergence of a frost halo on the underlying substrate, the progression of the liquid-ice interfa…
