A New Criterion for the Splashing of a Droplet on Dry Surface from High-Fidelity Simulations

In this study, a new criterion for the splashing of a droplet on a dry smooth surface is established from high-fidelity numerical simulations. The new criterion involves the Weber number, Reynolds number and contact angle. A new splashing mode, termed spreading splashing, is proposed, which predomin...
