Transport Phenomena Across Interfaces of Complex Fluids: Drops and Sprays

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Transport Phenomena in Complex Fluids

Part of the book series: CISM International Centre for Mechanical Sciences ((CISM,volume 598))

Abstract

This chapter gives an overview of the interfacial dynamics of complex fluids, with focus on non-Newtonian drop impact phenomena and non-Newtonian sprays. After a general introduction about Newtonian drops and sprays, the impact dynamics of viscoelastic and viscoplastic drops on both homothermal and heated surfaces is discussed. Finally, capillary instabilities and the atomisation process of non-Newtonian fluids are described.
