▼ The inhibiting effect of a sharp edge on liquid spreading is well observed during
drop interaction with textured surfaces. On groove-textured solid surfaces comprising unidirectional parallel grooves, the edge effect of posts results in the squeezing of
drop liquid in the direction perpendicular to the grooves and the stretching of
drop liquid along the grooves leading to anisotropy in
drop flow, popularly known as wetting anisotropy which has been employed in several engineering applications. A recent study observed that the energy loss incurring at the edges of posts via contact angle hysteresis is primarily responsible for the anisotropic spreading of impacting drops on groove-textured surfaces. The present study aims to elucidate the role of edges on the spreading and receding
dynamics of water drops. The experiments of
drop impact are carried out on semi-infinite rectangular post comprising a pair of parallel 90-deg edges separated by a distance (post width) comparable to the diameter of impacting
drop. The equilibrium shape of drops on the semi-infinite rectangular post is analyzed using open source computational tool Surface Evolver to optimize the ratio of initial droplet diameter to post width. Quantitative measurements of
drop impact dynamics on semi-infinite rectangular posts are deduced by analysing high speed videos of
impact process captured under three different camera views during experiments. Based on the role of post edges on impacting drops, different regimes of the impacting drops are characterized in terms of
drop Weber number and the ratio of diameter of impacting
drop to post width. Characteristic features of
impact dynamics in each of the regimes are identified and discussed. It is seen that edges play a pivotal role on all stages of
impact dynamics regardless of Weber number. Impacts in the regime of completely pinned drops on narrow posts are further analyzed to reveal characteristics of post-spreading oscillations.

▼ The research topic of liquid
drop interaction with solid surfaces is being actively pursued to gain in-depth understanding of several practical cases such as the impingement of fuel spray droplets on surfaces like combustion chamber walls and piston top of an I.C. engine, heat transfer via spray impingement, ink-jet printing, etc. In most of the cases, the physical and flow properties of the liquid
drop/spray may be fixed whereas it may be possible to tune the physical and chemical properties of the solid surface thereby enabling to control the interaction process. The present work belongs to the study of liquid
drop-solid surface interaction process with special focus on the physical characteristics of solid surface. The thesis reports an experimental study of the
dynamics of millimetric water drops impacted onto the junction of dual-textured substrates made of stainless steel. The dual-textured substrates consisted of hydrophobic (textured) and hydrophilic (smooth) portions. The entire textured portion comprised of parallel groove-like structures separated by solid posts/pillars. Two dual-textured substrates, which differ only in the geometry of their textured portions, were employed. Surface topography features of the dual-textured substrates were characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and optical surface profilometer. The wetting behavior of the textured and smooth portions of the substrates, quantified in terms of the equilibrium, advancing, and receding contact angles adopted by a water
drop on the surface portions, was characterized experimentally through the methods of sessile
drop formation, captive needle volume addition, and
drop evaporation under ambient conditions. Free-falling water drops were impacted from a height onto the junction between the hydrophobic (textured) and hydrophilic (smooth) portions of the dual-textured substrates. A set of twelve different
impact experiments were conducted on each of the target substrates with
drop impact velocity (Uo) ranging from 0.37 to 1.50 m/sec. The
dynamics of
drop impact were captured using a high speed camera with frame rate ranging from 3000 to 10000 frames per second. From the captured frames, the temporal variations of the impacting
drop parameters were measured using a MATLAB-assisted program. A systematic analysis of experimental data revealed the existence of four distinct regimes of
drop dynamics on the dual-textured substrate: (a) early inertia driven
drop spreading, (b) primary
drop receding, (c) secondary spreading on the hydrophilic portion, and (d) final equilibrium regimes. It is shown that the
drop impact dynamics during the early inertia driven
impact regime remains unaffected by the dual-texture feature of the substrate. A larger retraction speed of impacting
drop liquid observed on the hydrophobic portion of the substrate makes the
drop liquid on the higher wettability/hydrophilic portion to advance further (secondary
drop spreading). The net horizontal
drop velocity towards the hydrophilic portion of the dual-textured…

▼ Dynamic behavior of impacting water drops on superhydrophobic solid surfaces provides important details on the stability/durability of such solid surfaces. Multi-scale surface roughness combined with a layer of low energy chemical is an essential surface modification process followed to create superhydrophobic capabilities on solid surfaces. The present work aims at studying the effect of low energy surface coating on droplet
impact dynamics by carrying out experiments of water
drop impacts on rough solid surfaces with and without chemical modification. A group of six aluminium alloy (Al6061) surfaces (three pairs) are prepared. Roughness, characterized in terms mean surface roughness, Ra, is introduced to these metallic surfaces using sand-paper polishing, electric discharge machining (EDM), and chemical based surface etching process. Low energy surface layer is laid on the rough surfaces by coating NeverWet hydrophobic solution, octadecyl-trichloro-silane (OTS), and perfluorodecyltricholorosilane (FAS-17). The
impact dynamics of water drops is analyzed by capturing high speed videos for a range of
drop Weber number from 1 to 570 and the salient features of
drop impact process on the coated rough surfaces are compared with the corresponding uncoated rough surfaces. A one-to-one comparison on the spreading, fingering, receding, and final equilibrium of impacting drops on the coated and uncoated target surfaces is presented.
Upon coating NeverWet, the original surface features of the base aluminium surface are completely covered by the hydrophobic coating material resulting in a fresh top surface layer. The outcomes as well as the bounce-off characteristics of impacting water drops on the coated surface are comparable to those observed on lotus leaf. The surface morphology features of rough aluminium surfaces coated with OTS and FAS-17 are comparable to those of the corresponding uncoated surfaces. The quantitative measurements on primary spreading and maximum spread factor of impacting drops are largely unaffected by the presence of low energy chemical coating. The dominant effect of surface coating is seen on the receding of impacting drops and hence the final
drop configuration. This behavior is more prominently seen on EDM fabricated rough surface (larger Ra) combined with OTS coating than that on etching based rough surface (smaller Ra) combined with FAS-17 coating highlighting the dependence of coating effect with roughness features.

▼ Solid surfaces featuring a spatial variation of surface wettability along particular directions on their surface, referred to as wettability gradient surfaces, are becoming increasingly important in practical applications such as enhancement of boiling and condensation heat transfer and separation of immiscible liquids in smart micro-fluidic devices. With the aid of an external energy input, such as mechanical vibration or
impact kinetic energy, a liquid
drop on such surfaces gets propelled towards more wettable region on the surface. A fundamental study of
impact dynamics of liquid drops on such solid surfaces is relevant in understanding their effectiveness.
The present thesis reports a combined experimental and theoretical study on the
impact dynamics of liquid drops on solid surfaces comprising a smooth portion and a groove-textured portion separated by a junction line (dual-textured surfaces). Three different dual-textured surfaces – two made of intrinsically hydrophilic stainless steel and one of intrinsically hydrophobic poly-di-methyl-siloxane (PDMS) – are considered. Liquid drops, with Weber number (We) in the range 1–100, are impacted on the junction of the dual-textured surfaces and the entire
impact dynamics across the junction is captured using a high speed video camera. Experiments of
drop impact on the homogeneous surface portions of dual-textured surfaces (far away from the junction) are also conducted.
The temporal variation of
drop contact radius measured from the junction line on smooth and groove-textured portions of the dual-textured surfaces exhibits four distinct stages – primary spreading, primary receding, secondary spreading on more wettable surface portion, and final equilibrium – with the final outcome being the bulk movement and deposition of liquid
drop away from the junction towards the more hydrophilic surface portion. Secondary parameters characterizing each of these different stages are extracted from these measurements and a one-to-one comparison between dual-textured and homogenous surfaces is presented. A significant effect of dual-texture nature is seen on the receding process of impacting drops. On the dual-textured surfaces, the receding velocity of impacting
drop on the groove-textured portion is always greater than that on the smooth portion. The asymmetry in
drop receding results in a
drop drift velocity towards the more wettable surface portion leading to an enhanced secondary
drop spreading on the more wettable smooth portion. The
drop drift velocity shows a decrease with We at low We and remains almost constant at higher We after a particular value of We. Correspondingly, the ratio of the maximum
drop spread factor achieved during the secondary spreading (βm2) to that during the primary spreading (βm) is seen to decrease with We at low We and remains constant at higher We. Owing to the differences in the static equilibrium wetting difference, βm2/βm is more on the stainless steel dual-textured surfaces than on the PDMS dual-textured surface. The presence of…

▼ Dans la galvanisation à chaud, les aciers sont protégés contre la corrosion par une mince couche de zinc obtenue par immersion dans un bain d’alliage de zinc. Avant ce processus, les tôles d'acier subissent un recuit de recristallisation afin d'éliminer l’écrouissage après laminage à froid. Les conditions de recuit utilisées réduisent le film d'oxyde de fer natif, ce qui favorise la mouillabilité de la surface de l'acier par le zinc liquide. Cependant, les nouveaux aciers à haute résistance contiennent des quantités importantes d'éléments d’addition, tels que le silicium et le manganèse. Ces élements diffusent à la surface de l'acier pendant le recuit de recristallisation et forment des particules ou des films d'oxyde par oxydation sélective externe. Si le fer pur est bien mouillé par le zinc liquide, ces oxydes ne le sont pas et leur présence à la surface peut entraîner des défauts dans le revêtement final.Pour étudier l'influence de la taille et de la distribution des oxydes sur le mouillage par le métal liquide, nous avons étudié un mouillage non réactif du plomb liquide sur une surface hétérogène texturée Fe / silice en utilisant la technique de chute de goutte.Ces surfaces ont été conçues par dépôt chimique en phase vapeur assisté par plasma, suivi d'un procédé photolithographique.Après l'impact, la goutte s'étend jusqu'à son diamètre d'étalement maximal. S’ensuit une phase de recule de la goutte. Pendant son recul, la goutte est plus ou moins retenue, en fonction du taux de couverture de silice, sur le fer pur: phénomène d’accrochage-glissement. Sur les surfaces à faible teneur en silice, ce phénomène entraîne une déformation de la forme de la goutte qui est plus allongée dans un sens et quelquefois à la division de la goutte.Il a été démontré que le mouillage est affecté principalement par la fraction de surface de la silice.Enfin, nous avons modélisé les différentes phases de l'étalement de la goutte sur ces surfaces hétérogènes. Des modèles de littérature ont été revus et adaptés et nous avons proposé des modèles macroscopiques de l'oscillation de la goutte pendant son étalement.
In hot-dip galvanizing, steel sheets are protected against corrosion by a thin layer of zinc obtained by immersion in a zinc alloy bath. Before this process, the steel sheets undergo recrystallization annealing to eliminate stresses after cold-rolling. The annealing conditions used reduce the native iron oxide film, which promotes the wettability of the steel surface with liquid zinc. However, new high-strength steels contain significant quantities of addition elements, such as silicon and manganese. These elements diffuse on the surface of the steel sheets during recrystallization annealing and form oxide particles or films by selective external oxidation. If pure iron is well wet with liquid zinc, these oxides are not and their presence on the surface can lead to defects in the final coating.To study the influence of oxide size and their distribution on liquid metal wetting, we studied a non-reactive wetting of liquid lead on a…

▼ Football is a much loved sport in the United States. Unfortunately, it is also hard on the players and puts them at very high risk of concussion. To combat this an inventor in Santa Barbara brought a new design to Cal Poly to be tested.
The design was tested in small scale first in order to make some preliminary conclusions about the design. In order to fully test the helmet design; however, full scale testing was required. In order to carry out this testing a
drop tower was built based on National Operating Committee on Standards for Athletic Equipment, NOCSAE, specification. The
drop tower designed for Cal Poly is a lower cost and highly portable version of the standard NOCSAE design. Using this
drop tower and a 3D printed prototype the new design was tested in full scale.
