Combined Numerical and Thermodynamic Analysis of Drop Imbibition Into an Axisymmetric Open Capillary

This thesis presents an axisymmetric numerical model to simulate interfacial flows near a sharp corner, where contact line pinning occurs. The method has been used to analyze drop imbibition into a capillary. To evaluate the performance of the numerical method, for a liquid drop initially placed par...
