How different freezing morphologies of impacting droplets form

Freezing morphologies of impacting water droplets depend on the interaction between droplet spreading and solidification. The existing studies showed that the shape of frozen droplets mostly is of spherical cap with a singular tip, because of much shorter timescale of the droplet spreading than that...

description Freezing morphologies of impacting water droplets depend on the interaction between droplet spreading and solidification. The existing studies showed that the shape of frozen droplets mostly is of spherical cap with a singular tip, because of much shorter timescale of the droplet spreading than that of the solidification. Here, we create the experimental conditions of extended droplet spreading and greatly enhanced heat transfer for fast solidification, thereby allowing to study such droplet freezing process under the strong coupling of the droplet spreading and solidification.
