Capillary filling with randomly coated walls
Fabiana Diotallevi, Andrea Puglisi, Antonio Lamura +1
The motion of an air-fluid interface through an irregularly coated capillary is studied by analysing the Lucas-Washburn equation with a random capillary force. The pinning probabil…
Evidence of thin-film precursors formation in hydrokinetic and atomistic simulations of nano-channel capillary filling
S. Chibbaro, L. Biferale, F. Diotallevi +6
We present hydrokinetic Lattice Boltzmann and Molecular Dynamics simulations of capillary filling of high-wetting fluids in nano-channels, which provide clear evidence of the forma…
Front pinning in capillary filling of chemically coated channels
F. Diotallevi, L. Biferale, S. Chibbaro +2
The dynamics of capillary filling in the presence of chemically coated heterogeneous boundaries is investigated, both theoretically and numerically. In particular, by mapping the e…
