Droplet migration on hydrophobic–hydrophilic hybrid surfaces: a lattice Boltzmann study
In this paper, the fundamental features and mechanism of droplet migration on hydrophobic–hydrophilic hybrid surfaces are investigated using the lattice Boltzmann method. The hybrid surfaces are textured with pillars, which consist of hydrophobic side walls and hydrophilic tops. First, we study the cases with wettability differences between the sides and the tops of the pillars. It is found tha...
متن کاملDroplet Spreading on Heterogeneous Surfaces Using a Three-Dimensional Lattice Boltzmann Model
We use a three-dimensional lattice Boltzmann model to investigate the spreading of mesoscale droplets on homogeneous and heterogeneous surfaces. On a homogeneous substrate the base radius of the droplet grows with time as t for a range of viscosities and surface tensions. The time evolutions collapse onto a single curve as a function of a dimensionless time. On a surface comprising of alternate...
متن کاملLattice Boltzmann Simulation of Deformation and Breakup of a Droplet under Gravity Force Using Interparticle Potential Model
Abstract In this paper interparticle potential model of the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) is used to simulate deformation and breakup of a falling droplet under gravity force. First this model is applied to ensure that the surface tension effect is properly implemented in this model. Two tests have been considered. First, it has been checked an initial square drop in a 2D domain can freely def...
متن کاملDynamic Behavior of an Oil Droplet Adhered to the Wall Surface in a Channel Flow by the Lattice Boltzmann Method
The Lattice Boltzmann Method is used to simulate the dynamics of droplet deformation in a channel flow under various conditions. The droplet behavior has been investigated under transient conditions. For cases where the droplet remains attached to the surface, the shape deformation of the droplet during crawling is captured. It has been shown that there is a limiting value for the droplet volum...
متن کاملLattice Boltzmann modelling of droplets on chemically heterogeneous surfaces
A lattice Boltzmann method which can simulate droplet dynamics on partial wetting surface with large liquid-gas density ratio is proposed. The interaction between the fluid-fluid interface and the partial wetting wall is typically considered. Using the method, the dynamics of liquid drops on chemically heterogeneous surfaces are numerically simulated. The corresponding mechanisms including drop...
