The numerical simulation of a droplet deformation and solidification on a cold substrate was performed with SMAC algorithm. The substrate temperature histories and the degree of deformation were measured by use of a droplet of n-eicosane and n-cetane. The numerical results showed good agreement with
The present article reports on a numerical study of heat transfer and fluid flow characteristics during the impact and solidification of liquid droplets on a cold substrate. The impact dynamics and the associated thermal phenomena have been modelled by adopting a fixed grid (Eulerian) approach with
The spontaneous spreading of small liquid droplets on solid surfaces is examined with the objective of developing closed-form expressions for the spreading dynamics, both for the case in which there is complete equilibrium spreading, that is the equilibrium contact angle is Oo, and for the case in w
