In the present work, the results of a numerical investigation concerning the droplet behavior due to external forces and interactions with a wall-mounted obstacle are presented. Thereby, a wide range of droplet properties, two different surfaces, external effects such as the gravitation, the gas flow, vibrational excitations or superpositions of various forces as well as differe obstacle heights are considered.
First, an already existent numerical implementation of the contact angle hysteresis was further developed with regard to its universal applicability. The optimized numerical method was then validated on the basis of available experimental results and allowed to gain new insights into the dynamic behavior of droplets. Considering the droplet deformation and breakup due to the interaction with a wall-bounded obstacle with a rectangular cross-section, an empirical dimensionless representation was derived, which allows the categorization and prediction of the occurring droplet phenomena as a function of the process parameters.
