Macro textured superhydrophobic surfaces are reported to be highly effective in contact time reduction and thus a potential candidate for anti-icing applications. However, we find that the macro textured superhydrophobic ...

We present Galerkin Finite Element computations of the temperature profile and Nusselt Number associated with the mixed electroosmotic and pressure driven flow of a power law non - Newtonian fluid through a micro/nano ...

We observe the impact of bouncing and floating of water drops on a pool of immiscible volatile oil pools at low Weber numbers. The residence time of the impacting drop ranges from a few milliseconds to a few seconds before ...

Water drop impact onto hydrophobic cylindrical surfaces with four different curvature ratio were experimentally investigated. At lower Weber number impact droplet asymmetrically bounces from all curvature cases with increase ...

A systematically designed study has been conducted to understand and demarcate the degree of contribution by the constituting elements to the surface tension of nanocolloids. The effects of elements such as surfactants, ...

This article reports the dominant governing role played by the direction of electric and magnetic fields on the internal advection pattern and strength within salt solution pendent droplets. The literature shows that solutal ...

While a body of literature is there on the sessile evaporation of droplets, literatures dealing with the evaporation characteristics of the complex nanocolloidal systems are scarce. While a few literatures deals with the ...

We propose a comprehensive analysis and a quasi-analytical mathematical formalism to predict the surface tension and contact angles of complex surfactant-infused nanocolloids. The model rests on the foundations of the ...

The article demonstrates that the internal circulation velocity and patterns in sessile droplets on superhydrophobic surfaces is governed by the surface curvature. Particle Image Velocimetry reveals that increasing convexity ...

Experimental investigations were carried out to elucidate the role of surface wettability and inclination on the post impact dynamics of droplets. Maximum spreading diameter and spreading time were found to decrease with ...
