Abstract

In this paper, we present the dynamic behaviors of crown formation, central jet, and secondary droplets generated with droplet impact onto a liquid surface by using experimental and computational approaches. In our experiment, the dynamic behaviors after a droplet impact are recorded using a high-speed camera with appropriate resolution and exposure time. On the other hand, we simulate numerically the similar behaviors using the VOF (volume of fluid) solver in the OpenFOAM. As a fluid field, we consider the multiphase flows with free surfaces based on incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in the software codes. Some qualitative comparisons between the experimental and the computational results demonstrate the workability and validity of the present approaches.
