Maximum speed of dewetting on a fiber
Tak Shing Chan, Thomas Gueudré, Jacco H. Snoeijer
A solid object can be coated by a nonwetting liquid since a receding contact line cannot exceed a critical speed. We theoretically investigate this forced wetting transition for ax…
Air Entrainment by Viscous Contact Lines
Antonin Marchand, Tak Shing Chan, Jacco H. Snoeijer +1
The entrainment of air by advancing contact lines is studied by plunging a solid plate into a very viscous liquid. Above a threshold velocity, we observe the formation of an extend…
Flow reversals in thermally driven turbulence
Kazuyasu Sugiyama, Rui Ni, Richard J. A. M. Stevens +7
We analyze the reversals of the large scale flow in Rayleigh-Bénard convection both through particle image velocimetry flow visualization and direct numerical simulations (DNS) of…
