Journal ArticleDOI
Impacting-freezing dynamics of a supercooled water droplet on a cold surface: Rebound and adhesion
TL;DR: In this article, the impacting-freezing dynamics of a supercooled water droplet on a cold surface is studied experimentally and numerically using a numerical model that considers both the effects of the supercooling degree on the physical properties and of the dynamic contact angle on the contact line motion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Simulation and experiment on supercooled sessile water droplet freezing with special attention to supercooling and volume expansion effects
TL;DR: In this paper, the freezing process of supercooled water droplets on cold plates is studied experimentally and numerically, and a numerical model that considers both the supercooling effect on physical properties and the volume expansion effect on the droplet freezing profile is established to simulate the droplets freezing behaviors using the Solidification/Melting model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modelling of sessile water droplet shape evolution during freezing with consideration of supercooling effect
TL;DR: In this paper, the freezing process of a supercooled water droplet on a cold plate is studied theoretically and experimentally, and a novel model that considers both the supercooling effect on the physical properties and the gravity effect on droplet shape is developed to simulate the droplet freezing behaviors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spreading of droplets impacting different wettable surfaces at a Weber number close to zero
Xin Liu,Xuan Zhang,Jingchun Min +2 more
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of surface wettability on the impact process and post-impact oscillation were investigated on six different surfaces ranging from superhydrophilic to super-hydrophobic.
Journal ArticleDOI
Maximum spreading of droplets impacting spherical surfaces
Xin Liu,Xuan Zhang,Jingchun Min +2 more
TL;DR: In this article, a volume of fluid numerical model coupled with a dynamic contact angle model with consideration of the gravity effect is established and validated by comparing the evolutions of droplet profiles and spreading factors obtained from the simulations and the experiments in both the present work and literature.
