Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations have been performed to investigate the boiling phenomena of thin liquid film adsorbed on a nanostructured solid surface with particular emphasis on the effect of wetting condition of the solid surface. The molecular system consists of liquid and vapor argon, and solid platinum wall. The nanostructures which reside on top of the solid wall have shape of rectangular block. The solid-liquid interfacial wettability, in other words whether the solid surface is hydrophilic or hydrophobic has been altered for different cases to examine its effect on boiling phenomena. The initial configuration of the simulation domain comprised a three phase system (solid platinum, liquid argon and vapor argon) which was equilibrated at 90 K. After equilibrium period, the wall temperature was suddenly increased from 90 K to 250 K which is far above the critical point of argon and this initiates rapid or explosive boiling. The spatial and temporal variation of temperature and density as well as the variation of system pressure with respect to time were closely monitored for each case. The heat flux normal to the solid surface was also calculated to illustrate the effectiveness of heat transfer for different cases of wetting conditions of solid surface. The results show that the wetting condition of surface has significant effect on explosive boiling of the thin liquid film. The surface with higher wettability (hydrophilic) provides more favorable conditions for boiling than the low-wetting surface (hydrophobic) and therefore, liquid argon responds quickly and shifts from liquid to vapor phase faster in case of hydrophilic surface.

Kestabilan lapisan tipis cecair pada permukaan pepejal di bawah kuasa kutub dan elektrostatik dikaji. Aliran ditunjukkan oleh persamaan Navier–Stokes dua dimensi dipasangkan dengan persamaan penerusan serta digabungkan dengan garisan sempadan. Lapisan tipis adalah dimodelkan sebagai cecair Newtonian dua dimensi ketumpatan, ρ dan kelikatan, μ mengalir pada permukaan mendatar. Lapisan tebal purata, h0 adalah dianggap cukup tebal untuk mengabaikan kesan graviti dan dihadkan oleh gas pasif serta ditambah pada sisinya kepada infiniti (model dua dimensi). Kuasa jasad pada persamaan Navier–Stokes telah diubahsuai dengan mengambil kira interaksi di antara (kuasa kutub dan elektrostatik) lapisan cecair dengan permukaan pepejal disebabkan oleh kuasa kutub dan elektrostatik. Pengubahsuaian persamaan Navier–Stokes dengan gabungan garisan sempadan diselesaikan dengan menggunakan persamaan panjang gelombang untuk mendapatkan persamaan tidak lurus evolusi permukaan–permukaan lapisan. Bahagian kuasa elektrostatik adalah lebih besar dalam nilai kuasa kutub dan berpengaruh terhadap sifat lapisan tipis serta kesan utama pada sifat–sifat tenaga bebas berlebihan, kadar penambahan, kadar penambahan maksimum, nombor gelombang natural, nombor gelombang berpengaruh dan masa pecahan. Maka, teori linear adalah kurang menunjukkan sifat-sifat kestabilan lapisan. Pengiraan menunjukkan bahawa kuasa kutub dan elektrostatik hanya boleh digunakan untuk penghasilan lapisan mendatar dengan ketebalan h0

Air Film

In this paper we contrast the early impact stage of a highly viscous drop onto a liquid versus a solid substrate. Water drops impacting at low velocities can rebound from a solid surface without contact. This dynamic is mediated through lubrication of a thin air layer between the liquid and solid. Drops can also rebound from a liquid surface, but only for low Weber numbers. Impacts at higher velocities in both cases lead to circular contacts which entrap an air disc under the centre of the drop. Increasing the drop viscosity produces extended air films for impacts on a smooth solid surface even for much larger velocities. These air films eventually break through random wetting contacts with the solid. Herein we use high-speed interferometry to study the extent and thickness profile of the air film for a large-viscosity drop impacting onto a viscous film of the same liquid. We demonstrate a unified scaling of the centreline height of the air film for impacts on both solid and liquid, when using the effective impact velocity. On the other hand, we show that the large-viscosity liquid film promotes air films of larger extent. Furthermore, the rupture behaviour becomes fundamentally different, with the air film between the two compliant surfaces being more stable, lacking the random wetting patches seen on the solid. We map the parameter range where these air films occur and explore the transition from gliding to ring contact at the edge of the drop dimple. After the air film ruptures, the initial contraction occurs very rapidly and for viscosities greater than 100 cSt the retraction velocity of the air film is ${\sim}0.3~\text{m}~\text{s}^{-1}$, independent of the liquid viscosity and impact velocity, in sharp contrast with theoretical predictions.
