Measurement of Nanoscale Surface Disturbances on Liquid Jets Using the Mie Scattering Method
Dingwei Zhang, Qiyou Liu, Hu Sun +3
The Plateau--Rayleigh instability of liquid jets governs a wide range of natural and industrial processes. While the classical linear stability theory accurately predicts disturban…
How Surface Viscoelasticity Eliminates Satellite Drops
Xiaocong Yang, Qingfei Fu, Lijun Yang +1
Satellite drops form widely during the breakup of liquid threads and constitute deleterious byproducts across a broad range of industrial technologies, yet their complete suppressi…
Electric modification of mode competition in viscous films with insoluble surfactants on vertical fibers
Jun Gao, Xiaocong Yang, Senlin Zhu +2
This study investigates the coupled effects of an insoluble surfactant and a radial electric field on the stability of a viscous liquid film flowing down a vertical fiber. Starting…
Compression-thinning behavior of bubble suspensions
Hu Sun, Qingfei Fu, Chiyu Xie +2
Rheology of bubble suspensions is critical for the prediction and control of bubbly flows in a wide range of industrial processes. It is well-known that the bubble suspension exhib…
