In this study, we investigated the dynamics of a droplet impacting rough hydrophobic surfaces through high-speed imaging. Micrometer-sized structures with grooves and pillars were fabricated on smooth Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) surfaces by laser ablation. We used Newtonian and non-Newtonian liquid droplets to study the drop impact dynamics. De-ionized water and aqueous glycerin solutions were used for the Newtonian liquid droplet. The solutions of xanthan gum in water were prepared to provide elastic property to the Newtonian droplet. We found that the orientation of the surface structures affected the maximal spreading diameter of the droplet due to the degree of slippage. During the droplet retraction, the dynamic receding contact angles were measured to be around 90° or less. It resulted in the formation of the micro-capillary bridges between the receding droplet and the surface structures. Then, the rupture of the capillary bridge led to the formation of micrometer-sized droplets on top of the surface structures. The size of the microdroplets was found to increase with increasing the impacting velocity and viscosity of the Newtonian liquid droplets. However, the size of the isolated microdroplets decreased with enhancing the elasticity of the droplets, and the size of the non-Newtonian microdroplets was not affected by the impacting velocity.

The effects of surface energyon the wetting transition for impinging water droplets were experimentally investigated on the chemically modified WOx nanowire surfaces. We could modify the surface energy of the nanostructures through chemisorption of alkyltrichlorosilanes with various carbon chain lengths and by the UV-enhanced decomposition of self assembled monolayer (SAM) molecules chemically adsorbedon the array. Three surface wetting states could be identified through the balance between antiwetting and wetting pressures. This approach establishes simple strategy for the design criteria for water-repellent surface to impinging droplets.

Leidenfrost 온도 이상으로 가열된 벽면과 충돌하는 액적의 속도가 열전달 특성에 미치는 영향에 관한 실험 연구를 수행하였다. 동기화된 초고속 가시화 카메라와 적외선 카메라를 이용하여 벽면과 충돌하는 액적의 충돌 특성과 충돌면의 온도 분포를 측정하였다. 획득한 표면온도 분포를 충돌면의 경계 조건으로 이용하여 가열 벽면의 3차원 비정상 열전도 수치해석을 통해 표면 열유속 분포를 얻었다. 수직방향 충돌속도가 증가할수록 최대 액막 직경이 증가하고 가열 벽면과 액막 사이에 존재하는 증기막의 두께가 감소하여 열전달 효율이 증가하였다. 액적은 웨버수가 30보다 작은 경우 되튐현상이 발생하였으며, 큰 경우 작은 액적들로 분쇄되어졌다. 충돌속도에 의한 열전달량의 증가 경향이 되튐영역에서 분쇄영역에서 가면서 약화되었으며, 이는 분쇄현상에 의해 유효 열전달 면적의 확대 효과가 저감되었기 때문으로 해석된다.

Liquid-spray cleaning has recently been considered an eco-friendly cleaning method in the semiconductor industry because it efficiently cleans contaminated wafers without using any chemicals, relying instead on direct momentum transfer through dropwise impaction. Previous researches are mainly divided into two groups, such as modelling studies predicting the cleaning effect of single-droplet impact and experimental works for measuring particle removal efficiency (PRE) that essentially accompanies multiple droplet impacts. Here, we developed a Monte Carlo model to connect the single-droplet based model to the ensemble effect of multiple droplet impacts in real cleaning experiments, and thereby predict the PREs from the impaction conditions of droplets and the diameters of target particles. Additionally, we developed a two-fluid supersonic nozzle system, capable of spraying 10-60 ㎛ droplets under control of impact velocity, with aims to validate the model predictions of PREs for 15-130 nm contaminant particles on a Si wafer. We confirmed that the model predictions are in agreement with the experimental data within 7% and the cleaning time needs to be controlled for ensuring the efficient removal of particles.

The droplet impact behavior is dominated by some parameters such as surface temperature, We number, surface and fluid property. Especially, Leidenfrost effect which prevents the contact between surface and droplet is very powerful phenomenon for determining droplet impact behavior. Due to this effect, the impact regime is divided into contact boiling regime and film boiling regime whether the droplet contact with the surface. Many studies have found that surface micro-structures which processed by surface processing are effective to overcome the Leidenfrost effect. In this study, droplet impact behaviors were compared using ethanol both on flat and laser-ablated Al surface. On the flat surface, impact regime was mainly divided by surface temperature. And there is key dominant parameter for each regime. On the laser-ablated surface, we could see changed impact regime and different impact behavior such as jetting and ejection of tiny droplets despite of same impact conditions.

In this study the effect of collision model was evaluated in spray field by CFD. A collision is basically the interaction between droplets and criteria of collision is determined by drop Weber number, impact parameter, and drop-size ratio. Early developed collision model considered coalescence and grazing collision with the exchange of momentum. However in experimental research there were bouncing, coalescence, reflexive separating and stretching separating in interaction between droplets. In this study the collision considering such complex phenomena is modeled and was compared with the basic collision model.

Recently, researches for droplet impact phenomena have been faced a new phase in the direction of studying the effect of complex external conditions (e.g. wettability, temperature, morphology, electric field, etc.) for depth understanding and precise controlling in various applications. Hence, here we investigated the electrified droplet impact phenomena, because there were few quantitative researches for electrified droplet impact when we considering many real applications such as electrospray, electrohydrodynamic (EHD) jet printing. To observe interaction effect of surface charge between substrate and droplet simultaneously, micro-droplets with various Reynolds number (Re) and Weber number (We) were dripped on super-hydrophobic surface with existence and nonexistence of electrical surface charge. It shows three kinds of impact behaviors, fully bouncing, partial bouncing, and splashing with different We. Also, charged droplet bounced higher on electrically charged surface than on non-charged surface. Additionally, transition regions of three impact behaviors were classified quantitatively with water hammer pressure value, which means instant pressure inside droplet at the impact moment.

In this study, the mechanisms of binary droplet collision were studied with diesel, ethanol and purified water. The droplet collisions of liquid droplet have been investigated for the same droplet diameter. In order to obtain the digital images of the droplet collision behavior, the experimental equipment was composed of the droplet generating system and the droplet visualization system. The droplets were produced by the vibrating orifice monodisperse generator. The visualization system consisted of a long distance microscope, a light source, and a high speed camera. The outcomes of binary droplet collision can be divided into four regimes, bouncing, coalescence, reflexive separation and stretching separation. The impact angle and the relative velocity of binary droplet are main parameters of collision phenomena, so the transition mechanism of droplet collision can be divided by the impact parameter.

Pulsed supersonic liquid jets injected into an ambient air are empirically studied by using a high pressure ballistic range system. Ballistic range systems which are configured with high-pressure tube, pump tube, launch tube and liquid storage nozzle. Experimental studies are conducted to use with various impact nozzle geometry. Supersonic liquid jets are generated by an impact of high speed of the projectile. High speed liquid jets are injected with M = 3.2 which pressure is 1.19 GPa. Multiple jets which accompany with shock wave and pressure wave in front of the jet were observed. The shock-wave affects significantly atomization process for each spray droplets. As decreasing orifice diameter, the averaged SMD of spray jets had the decreasing tendency.
