Lattice Boltzmann modelling of droplets on chemically heterogeneous surfaces
We use a three-dimensional lattice Boltzmann model to investigate the spreading of mesoscopic droplets on homogeneous and heterogeneous surfaces. On a homogeneous substrate the base radius of the droplet grows with time as t 0.28 for a range of viscosities and surface tensions. The time evolutions c...
