Droplet Impact and Spreading on Inclined Surfaces

Langmuir, 2021
Introducing surface inclination in the case of droplet impact on solid substrates results in complicated dynamics post impact. The present work investigates the dynamics involved in the spreading phase of the droplet on inclined substrates. Experiments are conducted with water droplets impinging on inclined dry solid substrates with varying wettability

Drop impact on inclined superhydrophobic surfaces

Journal of Colloid and Interface Science, 2016
This paper discusses the dynamic behavior of water drops impacting on inclined superhydrophobic surfaces. For a normal impact on a smooth hydrophobic surface, the spreading (or expansion) and retraction dynamics of an impacting drop varies from complete rebound to splashing depending on its Weber number, (We(d)), calculated using the impact speed and ...

Impact of droplets onto inclined surfaces

Journal of Colloid and Interface Science, 2005
Drop impacts onto dry walls and liquid films at low impact angles and low normal Weber numbers are experimentally investigated. Measurements were performed using a high spatial resolution CCD camera and short exposure times, yielding both qualitative and quantitative information about the impact.

Droplet Splashing on an Inclined Surface

Physical Review Letters, 2019
Oblique droplet impacts onto a smooth surface at various inclination angles and at different ambient gas pressures were investigated using high-speed photography. It was found that the droplet splash can be entirely suppressed either by increasing the inclination angle or by reducing the ambient pressure.

Ballistic deposition onto inclined surfaces

Physical Review A, 1988
Simulations of ballistic deposition onto an inclined surface (deposition at non-normal incidence) have been carried out using two-dimensional lattice and off-lattice models and three-dimensional off-lattice models. For most of these models the relationship between the angle of incidence (\ensuremath{\theta}) and the angle of growth (\ensuremath{\varphi}

Flame spread on inclined surfaces

Fire Safety Journal, 1992
Abstract Experiments have been carried out to investigate the effect of slope on the rate of upward spread of flame over a combustible solid. There is a clear difference between the mechanisms of spread for thin and thick fuels. With the latter, a change in mechanisms is found to occur at an inclination of 15–20°.

Mixed Convection on Inclined Surfaces

Journal of Heat Transfer, 1979
An analysis is performed to study the effects of buoyancy force on the heat transfer characteristics of laminar forced convection flow over an inclined flat surface which is either maintained at a uniform temperature or subjected to a uniform heat flux.

Solar Radiation on Inclined Surfaces

Nature, 1965
IT is interesting to compare Dr. H. Heywood's proposed presentation of solar radiation data1 with a method developed at this Station2. This method makes the simplifying assumption that the diffuse sky radiation is uniformly distributed, except in the vicinity of the Sun where the radiance is known to be higher.

Solar radiation on inclined surfaces

Solar Energy, 1990
Measured solar radiation data for one location in Lesotho is used to test the applicability of two theoretical models for computing total solar radiation on inclined surfaces. The models selected for discussion are the isotropic model suggested by Liu and Jordan and the anisotropic model by Hay.

Monkey locomotion on inclined surfaces

American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 1969
AbstractMotion pictures were taken of a subadult, female squirrel monkey moving on level and inclined surfaces. The gaits for the various degrees of incline were compared. The noncontact periods were not affected by changes in inclination. The contact periods, which were inversely related to speed, were affected, by changes in slope and intersect ...
