Abstract
AbstractThis study uses molecular dynamics simulations to investigate the wetting behavior of water droplets on a gold substrate with annular grooves. The research finds that droplet size and substrate hydrophilicity similarly affect wetting behavior. Enhanced hydrophilicity changes the velocity trend of droplet contact line movement, while droplet size impacts the magnitude of velocity change. Contact angle fluctuations are observed and analyzed theoretically based on Young's equation. The results provide insights into the relationship between droplet dynamics and surface structure, contributing to a better understanding of wetting processes at the microscopic level.
