Surface tension effects on cryogenic liquid injection dynamics in supercritical environment

Dust dynamics in cryogenic environment

Theoretical study on dust dynamics under cryogenic environment in a complex plasma is presented. Expansion process and cooling process of highly charged dust particles in a plasma containing background ultracold neutral particles are studied. The processes are described by kinetic theory with Fokker-Planck collision term of the interaction between neutral particles and dust particles. Time evol...

Line tension effects for liquid droplets on circular surface domains.

We study the morphologies of single liquid droplets wetting a substrate in the presence of the line tension of the three-phase contact line. On a homogeneous substrate, the line tension leads to a discontinuous unbinding of the droplet if its volume is decreased below a critical value. For a droplet wetting a structured surface with a circular domain, a line tension contrast gives rise to disco...

Density and Temperature Dependencies of Liquid Surface Tension

In this paper the density and temperature dependencies of surface tension are investigated. Using the Lennard-Jones (12,6), as an effective pair interaction potential, a linear expression is derived for isotherms of g /r2  versus r2 for some normal and ChloroFluoroCarbons (CFCs)</...

Long Range Corrections to the Vapor-Liquid Equilibrium and Surface Tension of Methane with NVT Molecular Dynamics Simulations

Molecular Dynamics Simulation of Interfacial Tension of Ultra-thin Liquid Films on a Solid Surface

The effect of wall proximity on the interfacial tension of ultra-thin liquid films of Lennard-Jones (12,6) fluid has been studied using Molecular Dynamics Simulation. The wall’s presence can potentially affect drop-wise condensation and other phase change phenomena such as boiling. Initially the LennardJones atoms are placed near a solid wall with FCC lattice structure in a doubly periodic box....
