Paradoxes in Capillary Flows
James SprittlesYulii Shikhmurzaev
What Is A Capillary Flow?!
• One in which surface tension is of importance
– An effect caused by asymmetry of intermolecular forces.
– Acts as a stretched elastic membrane at a surface.
– Gradients in surface tension drive
bulk motion (Marangoni effects).
– Present at both liquid-gas and
liquid-solid boundaries.
Introduction
• With:– A Big Computer
– A Good Textbook
– An Endless Supply of (Good) Coffee
– A Lack of Social Life
• Can we describe all capillary flows?
1. A Classical Approach
The Classical Recipe
• In The Bulk:– (Incompressible) Navier–Stokes
• At Fluid Boundaries:– Balance of Stress With Capillary Forces.
– Particles On a Free Surface, f(x,y,z,t)=0, Move With It (Kinematic Condition)
• At Solid Boundaries:– No Slip

Ink Jet Printing: Breakup of Liquid Threads
• A drop of ink is pushed from the nozzle.
Breakup of Liquid Threads
• Predictions of Classical Model:
– Infinite Axial Velocity at Breakup.
– Infinite Pressure at Breakup.
– Rate of Fresh Free Surface Area Creation Becomes Infinite
• Main Problem:
– Solution Required After Breakup.
Ink Jet Printing: Spreading of Liquids
Drop In Equilibrium
No Solution!
Drop Out of Equilibrium
• Ink drops land and then spread on solid.
Coalescence Of Liquid Volumes
• Ink drops coalesce with adjacent ones on the paper.
Infinite Stresses!
Ink Jet Printing: Impact On Chemically Patterned Surfaces
• Pattern a surface to correct deposition

The Free Surface Is a Streamline.
Summary• No Solution
– Flow of Liquids Over Solids
• Singular Solution– Coalescence of Drops– Cusps– Breakup Of Liquids
• Wrong Solution– Flow Over Chemically Patterned Surfaces
A Big Computer Can’t Handle These.
2. A Standard Approach
Flow Of Liquids Over Solids
Two Issues:– Allow For A Solution
– Describe The Angle Between The Free Surface and the Solid (The Contact Angle).
dθ U
Standard Solution:– Allow Slip Between Solid
and Liquid
– Let dθ = ( U )f
Q) Does The Standard Model Work? Impact of a Microdrop
Radius = 25 m, Impact Speed = 12.2 m/sRe=345, We=51, β = 100, .67s

Standard Model’s Problems:
• Incorrect Kinematics
• Pressure Singularity at Contact Line
• Contact Angle Depends on Flow

3. A New (ish) Approach
Breakup Of Liquid Threads• New free surface
is created.
• New free surface particles are initially out of equilibrium.

Surface Tension Relaxation
Summary
• All are associated with transition from one surface tension to another
• Relaxation of surface tension takes finite time/distance
• Mass, momentum and energy exchange between surface and bulk
• Gradients in surface tension (Marangoni effect)

f (r, t )=0 • Generalisation of standard/classical model
Predictions/Propaganda
• Generalises standard/classical recipe.
• Removes singularities inherent in both classical and standard approaches.
• Predicts contact angle depends on flow field.
• Ensures one can (numerically) apply a unified approach to all these problems (=easier!).
• Agrees with experiment.
Conclusion/Sales Pitch
• With:– A Big Computer
– An Endless Supply of (Good) Coffee
– A Lack of Social Life
– The RIGHT Textbook..
• We can describe capillary flows!
