Abstract
Oscillating droplets rebounding completely from non-superhydrophobic surfaces (polydimethylsiloxane, PDMS) were experimentally studied and theoretically interpreted. The new experimental finding is that, with increasing the droplet impact Weber numbers (), the recovery coefficient of droplet velocity, which is defined as the ratio of the rebounding velocity over the impact velocity, has an overall trend of decrease but in a fluctuating manner. Physically, a sufficiently large droplet freely falling under gravity has an inevitable oscillation, which makes the impacting droplet shape slightly deviate from being spherical and in turn affects the interaction between the droplet and the surface. The fluctuating recovery coefficient is the result of the periodically varying phase of droplet oscillation with increasing , and increasing the droplet viscosity can suppress the droplet oscillation and then the fluctuation amplitude of the recovery coefficient. A theoretical model of oscillating droplet rebound is proposed and well fits the present experiments over a wide range of .
对从非超疏水表面(聚二甲基硅氧烷,PDMS)完全反弹的振荡液滴进行了实验研究和理论解释。新的实验发现是,随着液滴撞击韦伯数(We)的增加,液滴速度的恢复系数(定义为反弹速度与撞击速度之比)总体上呈下降趋势,但有波动。从物理学角度讲,一个足够大的液滴在重力作用下自由下落时不可避免地会产生振荡,这使得撞击液滴的形状略微偏离球形,进而影响液滴与表面之间的相互作用。回收系数的波动是液滴振荡相位随 We 值增大而周期性变化的结果,增加液滴粘度可抑制液滴振荡,进而抑制回收系数的波动幅度。本文提出了液滴振荡反弹的理论模型,并在较宽的 We 范围内很好地拟合了本实验。
