Role of droplet distortion and break-up in large droplet aircraft icing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Experimental and analytical evidence is presented to illustrate droplet distortion and potential break-up in the flow conditions similar those of a drizzle droplet in the vicinity of an aerofoil.

A Facile Strategy for Visualizing and Modulating Droplet-Based Microfluidics

open access: yesMicromachines, 2019
In droplet-based microfluidics, visualizing and modulating of droplets is often prerequisite. In this paper, we report a facile strategy for visualizing and modulating high-throughput droplets in microfluidics. In the strategy, by modulating the sampling

Coalescence preference dynamics for droplet growth during single-component fluid phase separation

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2022
When two unequal sized droplets coalesce to form a final product drop, the product forms closer to the larger of its two parents—a phenomenon known as the coalescence-preference dynamics.

Droplet-Droplet, Droplet-Wall and Microorganism-Wall Interactions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The first study investigates the outcomes in droplet-droplet collision. Droplet-droplet collisions in a gas occur when droplets move towards each other in flight and come into direct contact. The “outcome” is defined herein to be the state of the liquid matter after the collision process is completed and generally can be classified as an agglomeration

Introducing purely hydrodynamic networking mechanisms in microfluidic systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Microfluidic is a multidisciplinary field with prac- tical applications to the design of systems, called Lab-on-a- Chip (LoC), where tiny volumes of fluids are circulated through channels with millimeter size and driven into structures where precise ...

The measurement of microbial air contamination index in the pulmonary ward, intensive care unit and pediatric intensive care unit at dr. Zainoel Abidin hospital, Aceh, Indonesia

open access: yesJurnal Natural
Nosocomial infections are one of the major problems in hospitals. Air is one source of nosocomial infections. Hospitals are filled with many patients, their families, and health workers daily.

Condensation droplet sieve

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
AbstractLarge droplets emerging during dropwise condensation impair surface properties such as anti-fogging/frosting ability and heat transfer efficiency. How to spontaneously detach massive randomly distributed droplets with controlled sizes has remained a challenge.

Effect of Transverse Confinement on a Quasi-One-Dimensional Dipolar Bose Gas

open access: yesCondensed Matter, 2023
We study a gas of bosonic dipolar atoms in the presence of a transverse harmonic trapping potential by using an improved variational Bethe ansatz, which includes the transverse width of the atomic cloud as a variational parameter.

Mixing characterization inside microdroplets engineered on a microcoalescer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We use a microdevice where microdroplets of reagents are generated and coalesce in a carrier continuous phase. The work focuses on the characterization of the mixing step inside the droplets, in the perspective to use them for chemical kinetic data ...

Droplets Sliding Down Partially Wetted (Non-Superhydrophobic) Surfaces: A Review

open access: yesLiquids
Droplets sliding down a partially wetted surface are a ubiquitous phenomenon in nature and everyday life. Despite its apparent simplicity, it hinders complex intricacies for theoretical and numerical descriptions matching the experimental observations ...
