Wetting failure and contact line dynamics in a Couette flow
M. Sbragaglia, K. Sugiyama, L. Biferale
Liquid-liquid wetting failure is investigated in a two-dimensional Couette system with two immiscible fluids of arbitrary viscosity. The problem is solved exactly using a sharp int…
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…
