Receding Contact

Capillary rise of air-water-solid systems have been recorded with high-speed video. Glass and metal have been used as the solid phase, and the dynamic shape of the meniscus and contact angle have been characterized. The advancing and receding contact angle is of interest in computational simulations of boiling flow, and the present visualizations attempt to quantify the dynamic aspects of contact line motion. The centroid of the capillary meniscus has been tracked in order to determine the force at the contact line based on a force balance of the elevated fluid phase. The solid phase is raised and lowered in the fluid at different rates to observe advancing and receding contact lines.

Meniscus Shape

There are still many unanswered questions related to the problem of a capillary surface rising in a tube. One of the major questions is the evolution of the liquid meniscus shape. In this paper, a simple geometry method is proposed to solve the force balance equation on the liquid meniscus. Based on a proper model for the macroscopic dynamic contact angle, the evolution of the liquid meniscus, including the moving speed and the shape, is obtained. The wall condition of zero dynamic contact angle is allowed. The resulting slipping velocity at the contact line resolves the stress singularity successfully. Performance of the present method is examined through six well-documented capillary-rise examples. Good agreements between the predictions and the measurements are observable if a reliable model for the dynamic contact angle is available. Although only the capillary-rise problem is demonstrated in this paper, the concept of this method is equally applicable to free surface flow in the vicinity of a contact line where the capillary force dominates the flow.
