SPH Simulation of Liquid Droplet Behavior
on a Water-repellent Surface Masumi Ito 2013
The wetting property of a Liquid-Solid surface is represented
by the angle which is made at the end of liquid body.
Wettability and Contact Angle
Liquid Cohesion (Surface tension) Algorithm SPH
Comparison of wettability Rebound motion (Hydrophobic case)
A liquid sphere falls and collides with solid surface (colliding velocity:0.85m/s)
The effect of surface tension is given as a attractive force between particles

Objective: To confirm Liquid-Solid contact can be properly computed using SPH method.

Back Ground The treatment of wettability is important to calculate a fluid
motion of a liquid body that touches a solid surface.
For example, the bouncing behavior of a liquid droplet is
largely changes with wettability which is seen in heat-
exchanger tubes, where it is demanded to understand and
suppress this phenomena.
This study tries to compute this bouncing phenomena using a
particle method (SPH). The effect of liquid cohesion was given
as the attraction of particles.
Investigated whether the SPH can properly calculate
the geometry of the deforming liquid surface or not.
Deforming behavior changes with wettability.

Conclusion: The SPH method is feasible to compute the liquid bouncing phenomena.
