TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate the final stages of evaporation of Leidenfrost droplets and reveal a universal 1/3 scaling law for the dimensionless explosion radius versus contaminant fraction.

TL;DR: This work reports on the final stages of evaporation of Leidenfrost droplets and validate this hypothesis by introducing controlled amounts of microparticles and reveal a universal 1/3-scaling law for the dimensionless explosion radius versus contaminant fraction.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied a unique explosive gasification process of a tricomponent droplet consisting of water, ethanol, and oil, by high-speed monitoring of the entire gasification event taking place in the well-controlled, levitated Leidenfrost state over a superheated plate.

TL;DR: In this article, the impact of Leidenfrost drops on superheated inclined substrates was studied. But the authors focused on the impact on solid walls with various inclinations and did not consider the effect of the We number on the sliding behavior.

TL;DR: In this article, a hybrid VoF-IBM method was developed for the simulation of freezing liquid films and freezing drops, which is coupled with the temperature equation to solve the icing front, the dilatation induced by the density difference between the liquid and the ice as well as the drop deformation induced by balance of the surface tension and gravity.
