Abstract

Numerical simulation is performed for stick-slip contact line motion and particle line formation in dip coating. The liquid–gas interface as well as the liquid–gas–solid contact line is tracked by a sharp-interface level-set method, which is extended to include the effect of phase change, to implement the contact angle model for the stick-slip contact line motion, and to treat the particle deposition on a moving substrate. The computations demonstrate that the particle line formation is directly related to the stick-slip contact line motion. The effects of initial particle concentration, substrate withdrawal velocity, substrate temperature and contact angle on the particle line formation in dip coating are investigated.
