Droplet Condensation and Isoperimetric Towers
We consider a variational problem in a planar convex domain, motivated by statistical mechanics of crystal growth in a saturated solution. The minimizers are constructed explicitly and are completely characterized.
متن کاملEdge effects on water droplet condensation.
In this study we investigate the effect of geometrical or thermal discontinuities on the growth of water droplets condensing on a cooled substrate. Edges, corners, and cooled and noncooled boundaries can have a strong effect on the vapor concentration profile and mass diffusion around the drops. In comparison to growth in a pattern where droplets have to compete to catch vapor, which results in...
متن کاملJumping-droplet-enhanced condensation on scalable superhydrophobic nanostructured surfaces.
When droplets coalesce on a superhydrophobic nanostructured surface, the resulting droplet can jump from the surface due to the release of excess surface energy. If designed properly, these superhydrophobic nanostructured surfaces can not only allow for easy droplet removal at micrometric length scales during condensation but also promise to enhance heat transfer performance. However, the ratio...
متن کاملBubble and droplet motion in binary mixtures: Evaporation-condensation mechanism and Marangoni effect.
Bubble and droplet motion in binary mixtures is studied in weak heat and diffusion fluxes and in gravity by solving the linearized hydrodynamic equations supplemented with appropriate surface boundary conditions. Without gravity, the velocity field is induced by evaporation and condensation at the interface and by the Marangoni effect due to a surface-tension gradient. In pure fluids, the latte...
متن کاملCorridors and towers.
Editorial Corridors and Towers When C P Snow wrote "The Corridors of Power" he sought to demonstrate the inner workings of the political process in Whitehall. Now that we are coming towards the end of the useful life of the building known as the "RVH corridor" it is time to consider some of the inner workings of our own profession. Wards 1-20 in the Royal Victoria Hospital represent only a smal...
