Effects of Asymmetric Cooling and Surface Wettability on the Orientation of the Freezing Tip
Anton Starostin, Vladimir Strelnikov, Leonid A. Dombrovsky +3
Freezing of water droplets placed on the bare and superhydrophobic surfaces of polymer wedges are studied both experimentally and computationally. Two-dimensional numerical calcula…
A hierarchical levitating cluster containing transforming small aggregates of water droplets
Alexander A. Fedorets, Leonid A. Dombrovsky, Edward Bormashenko +1
A new type of a levitating droplet clusters composed of often transforming small aggregates of water droplets is described for the first time. Unlike earlier observed droplet clust…
Thermophoretic Levitation of Solid Particles at Atmospheric Pressure
Pritam Kumar Roy, Irina Legchenkova, Leonid A. Dombrovsky +7
Separation and transportation of small particles are important processes in various applications such as the food and pharmaceutical industries. Although mechanical, chemical or el…
On relative contribution of electrostatic and aerodynamic effects to dynamics of a levitating droplet cluster
Alexander A. Fedorets, Leonid A. Dombrovsky, Edward Bormashenko +1
New experimental results and their physical analysis are presented to clarify the behavior of a relatively stable self-arranged droplet cluster levitating over the locally heated w…
Comment on Levitation and Self-Organization of Liquid Microdroplets over Dry Heated Substrates
Alexander Fedorets, Leonid Dombrovsky, Michael Nosonovsky
In a recent letter [1], Zaitsev et al. report observations of evaporating water micro-droplets over a heated solid substrate and suggest a model for the mechanisms of both droplet…
