As part of the School of Science and Technology's Joint Seminar Programme for the Engineering and Materials and Computing Informatics Research Centres, Dr Prashant Valluri, University of Edinburgh presents: Watching sessile droplets evaporate: Beautiful (and never boring) phenomena!
Abstract
The evaporation of liquid drops on solid substrates is a common phenomenon. Yet, the complexity of the underlying physics has constrained previous studies to spherically-symmetric configurations. Through simulations, theory and experiments, this talk will show and reason out dramatic dependence of evaporation dynamics on geometry resulting in breakage of symmetry.
This seminar is hosted by Dr David Fairhurst/Dr Christopher Castleton.
