Water Splash on Acrylic
Splashed tin. The impact conditions: impact velocity = 3.5 m/s, initial droplet diameter = 2.6 mm, droplet temperature at impact = 315° C, target temperature = 30° C, We = 203, and Re = 17100. Water droplet colliding with acrylic surface. Droplet diameter=3.6 mm, Impact velocity =0.77 m/s, We=30 Re=3214.
