Multicomponent and multiphase modeling and simulation of reactive wetting
Physical Review E—Statistical, Nonlinear, and Soft Matter Physics, 2008•APS
A multicomponent and multiphase model with fluid motion is developed. The model is used
to study reactive wetting in the case where concentration change of the spreading liquid and
the substrate occurs. With the introduction of a Gibbs energy functional, the governing
equations are derived, consisting of convective concentration and phase-field equations
which are coupled to the Navier-Stokes equations with surface tension forces. The solid
substrate is modeled hydrodynamically with a very high viscosity. Arbitrary phase diagrams …

A multicomponent and multiphase model with fluid motion is developed. The model is used to study reactive wetting in the case where concentration change of the spreading liquid and the substrate occurs. With the introduction of a Gibbs energy functional, the governing equations are derived, consisting of convective concentration and phase-field equations which are coupled to the Navier-Stokes equations with surface tension forces. The solid substrate is modeled hydrodynamically with a very high viscosity. Arbitrary phase diagrams, surface energies, and typical dimensionless numbers are some input parameters into the model. An axisymmetric model with an adaptive finite element method is utilized. Numerical simulations were done revealing two stages in the wetting process. First, the convection-dominated stage where rapid spreading occurs. The dynamics of the wetting is found to match with a known hydrodynamic theory for spreading liquids. Second, the diffusion-dominated stage where we observed depression of the substrate-liquid interface and elevation of the contact line region.
