Direct Numerical Simulation of dynamic droplet wetting on superhydrophobic substrates by means of a diffuse-interface phase-field method using OpenFOAM
Beschreibung
Master Thesis of Michael Holzinger.
The dynamic wetting process and shape evolution of a droplet impacting perpendicular on a planar,
plain and super-hydrophobic substrate are investigated by means of direct numerical simulation of an
immiscible and isothermal binary fluid system. A diffuse-interface phase-field method is used, where the
Cahn-Hilliard equation, describing the evolution of the phase-field parameter, is coupled with the Navier Stokes system. The model parameter of the phase-field method are the capillary width, the mobility, the
mixing energy parameter and the equilibrium contact angle on fluid-solid boundaries. The mixing energy
parameter model will be extended in this work in order to deal with dynamic out-of-equilibrium behavior
of the diffuse-interface on a local scope. 2D-axis-symmetric simulations in combination with adaptive
mesh refinement will be performed, the latter allowing for an immense reduction of control volumes far
from the diffuse-interface. (...) For all simulations different mixing energy parameters models are compared with
each other.
