Dynamics of wetting

We consider a fluid of a uniform density, p, moving with velocity u(r, t). The conservation of mass or continuity equation implies [Pg.126]

For a thin, incompressible film (thin compared with the variations in the profile in the x and y directions), we assume that in the Navier-Stokes equations, V is only z dependent thus. [Pg.127]

In addition, we assume that since the film is thin, the pressure is constant in the z direction. Thus the only components of Vp are in the x and y directions. Finally, we consider steady-state solutions of the Navier-Stokes equation dv/dt = 0. Writing v = u(z), these equations are [Pg.127]

Since we take p to be independent of z within the lubrication approximation, Vz = 0. The pressure drop across a curved interface located at z = h(Xyy) is given by the Laplace condition (see Chapter 2)  [Pg.127]

The characteristic velocity of the fluid is of the order yfri 10 cm/s, while the contact line velocity is much smaller since it depends on the curvature which is small typically U cm/s. [Pg.128]


Since drying occurs simultaneously with wetting, the effect of diy-ing can substantially modify the expected impacd of a given process variable and this should not be overlooked. In addition, simultaneously drying often implies that the dynamics of wetting are far more important than the extent. [Pg.1881]

An upper limit on the capillary number required for snap-off arises from the dynamics of wetting fluid flow into the constriction. The capillary number must be below the upper limit for a long enough time that sufficient wetting fluid can flow back into the constriction to form a lamella (40). If the volume of wetting fluid is too small, the lamella cannot form. [Pg.19]

Marangoni interfacial stresses which slow the dynamics of wetting. Additional variables which influence adhesion tension include (1) impurity profile and particle habit/morphology typically controlled in the particle formation stage such as crystallization, (2) temperature of granulation, and (3) technique of grinding, which is an additional source of impurity as well. [Pg.2356]
