Wetting of rough surfaces in a phase field model

  • Surface wetting can be simulated using a phase field approach which describes the continuous liquid-gas transition with the help of an order parameter. In this publication, wetting of non-planar surfaces is investigated based on a phase field model by Diewald et al. [1, 2]. Different scenarios of droplets on rough surfaces are simulated. The static equilibrium for those scenarios is calculated using an Allen-Cahn evolution equation. The influence of the surface morphology on the resulting contact angle is investigated while the width of the phase transition from liquid to gas is varied as a model parameter.
