On the Buoyancy-Driven Detachment of a Wall-Bound Pendant Drop: Results of Phase-Field Simulations
We investigate numerically the critical conditions for detachment of an isolated, wall-bound pendant emulsion droplet acted upon by surface tension and wall-normal buoyancy forces alone. To that end, we present a simple extension of a diffuse interface model for partially miscible binary mixtures th...
