DOI: 10.3390/mi12060592
Abstract: Detachment and jumping of liquid droplets over solid surfaces under electrowetting actuation are of fundamental interest in many microfluidic and heat transfer applications. In this study we demonstrate the potential capabilities of our continuum-level, sharp-interface… read more here.
