The influence of surface tension gradients on drop coalescence

We present the results of a combined experimental and numerical investigation of the coalescence of a drop with a liquid reservoir of a miscible but distinct fluid. Particular attention is given to elucidating the influence on the coalescence process of a surface tension difference between drop and...
