Abstract:The use of levitated droplets with electrostatic and ultrasonic fields has attracted much attention in the fields of materials development, chemical engineering, droplet-based microfluidics, inkjet printing, and aerospace engineering. To use them properly, it is essential to understand the internal flow of the suspended droplet. The flow inside fluid droplets is visualized with the particle image velocimetry (PIV) method. The fluid that is to be investigated is scattered with small particles that follow the fl… Show more
