Supercomputer Simulation of Sessile and Pendent Drops
Abstract
**Please note that the full text is embargoed** ABSTRACT: A intermolecular approach is developed for the modeling of sessile and pendent drops. Fundamental mechanisms of drop formation are formulated in terms of gravity and classical
intermolecular type forces. CRAY X-MP/24 computer examples illustrate standing and falling drops, free surface motions, and convergence to equilibrium. The role of temperature in drop configuration modeling is shown to be significant.
