Rotational motion of a droplet induced by interfacial tension.
Spontaneous rotation of a droplet induced by the Marangoni flow is analyzed in a two-dimensional system. The droplet with the small particle which supplies a surfactant at the interface is considered. We calculated flow field around the droplet using the Stokes equation and found that advective nonlinearity breaks symmetry for rotation. Theoretical calculation indicates that the droplet spontan...
متن کاملInterfacial Tension of Electrolyte Solutions
A theory is presented to account for the increase in surface tension of water in the presence of electrolyte. Unlike the original “grandcanonical” calculation of Onsager and Samaras, which relied on the Gibbs adsorption isotherm and lead to a result which could only be expressed as an infinite series, our approach is “canonical” and produces an analytic formula for the excess surface tension. F...
متن کاملDroplet-based interfacial capacitive sensing.
This paper presented a novel droplet-based pressure sensor using elastic and capacitive electrode-electrolyte interfaces to achieve ultrahigh mechanical-to-electrical sensitivity (1.58 μF kPa(-1)) and resolution (1.8 Pa) with a simple device architecture. The miniature transparent droplet sensors, fabricated by one-step laser micromachining, consisted of two flexible polymer membranes with cond...
متن کاملDroplet Deformation in Dispersions with Unequal Viscosities and Zero Interfacial Tension
An analytical model is presented for the deformation of an ellipsoidal Newtonian droplet, suspended in another Newtonian fluid with different viscosity and zero interfacial tension. The theory is exact for any linear velocity field, and is not limited to small deformations. It encompasses some well-known special cases, such as Jeffery’s equation for solid axisymmetric particles and Taylor’s sma...
متن کاملDroplet coalescence: drainage, film rupture and neck growth in ultralow interfacial tension systems
We study the coalescence of a drop with its bulk phase in fluid–fluid demixing colloid–polymer mixtures. Such mixtures show behaviour analogous to molecular fluid–fluid systems, but the interfacial tension is between 10 to 10 times smaller than in the molecular case. Such an ultralow interfacial tension has several important consequences and offers significant advantages in the study of droplet...
