Droplet evaporation is a widely encountered heat and mass transfer phenomenon. Due to its
3D in nature, it is challenging to simulate the complex 3D droplet evaporation process. Here …

In this paper, a three-dimensional symmetric lattice Boltzmann (LB) model is built up to
investigate evaporation of a sessile droplet on pillar structured surfaces. Parametric effects …

Previous studies have pointed out that adding a single protrusion on the superhydrophobic
surface can effectively reduce the contact time of droplets, which is of practical importance in …

Condensation heat transfer on the hierarchical microstructured surfaces is simulated using a
three-dimensional phase-change lattice Boltzmann method. Parametric effects raised by …

The liquid contact angle on a solid surface is important in evaporation processes, which
characterizes the wettability, and the spread of liquid films or droplets on the working …

The PP scheme (primitive pseudopotential-based scheme), the MP scheme (modified
pseudopotential-based scheme) and the IVD scheme (improved virtual-density scheme) are …

Quartet structure generation set (QSGS) method is improved to numerically reconstruct three-
dimensional heterogeneous porous wicks with uniform pore size distribution. The capillary …

A superhydrophobic surface with a contact angle greater than 160° and a sliding angle∼ 2°
was fabricated by a simple, low-cost chemical etching method. The evaporation …

液滴黏附于固体壁面上的受力, 变形, 运移, 破裂和分离机理的研究涉及到提高原油采收率等多种
领域. 以微孔道中黏附在岩石表面上的残余油和驱替液作为研究对象, 采用有限差分方法并结合 …

The evaporation characteristics of self-rewetting fluids have attracted much attention in
recent years. However, the evaporation dynamics as well as the underlying evaporation …
