Particles accelerate the detachment of viscous liquids
Merlijn S. van Deen, Thibault Bertrand, Nhung Vu +3
During detachment of a viscous fluid extruded from a nozzle a filament linking the droplet to the latter is formed. Under the effect of surface tension the filament thins until pin…
Propulsion Mechanisms for Leidenfrost Solids on Ratchets
Tobias Baier, Guillaume Dupeux, Stefan Herbert +2
We propose a model for the propulsion of Leidenfrost solids on ratchets based on viscous drag due to the flow of evaporating vapor. The model assumes pressure-driven flow described…
Fracture of a viscous liquid
Frederic Restagno, Elise Lorenceau, David Quere
When a viscous liquid hits a pool of liquid of same nature, the impact region is hollowed by the shock. Its bottom becomes extremely sharp if increasing the impact velocity, and we…
Water spring: a model for bouncing drops
K. Okumura, F. Chevy, C. Clanet +2
It has been shown that a water drop can bounce persistently, when thrown on a super-hydrophobic substrate. We present here scaling arguments which allow us to predict the maximal d…
