A predictive model for the wettability of chalk

open access: yesSN Applied Sciences, 2020
Wettability is usually measured in special core analyses of limited plug samples according to typically costly and time-consuming procedures. For comparative purposes, wettability is considered an index.

Wettability and Lenormand's diagram

open access: yesJournal of Fluid Mechanics, 2021
Fluid–fluid displacement in porous media has been viewed through the lens of Lenormand's phase diagram since the late 1980s. This diagram suggests that the character of the flow is controlled by two dimensionless parameters: the capillary number and the ...

A Critical Review of Membrane Wettability in Membrane Distillation from the Perspective of Interfacial Interactions.

open access: yesEnvironmental Science and Technology, 2020
Hydrophobic membranes used in membrane distillation (MD) systems are often subject to wetting during long-term operation. Thus, it is of great importance to fully understand factors that influence the wettability of hydrophobic membranes and their impact

Diffusion of a Janus nanoparticle in an explicit solvent: A molecular dynamics simulation study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Molecular dynamics simulations are carried out to study the translational and rotational diffusion of a single Janus particle immersed in a dense Lennard-Jones fluid. We consider a spherical particle with two hemispheres of different wettability.
