Droplet in air

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi all,

I'm trying to run a simulation of a droplet falling in air, at a constant velocity of 0.02m/s, on to a wetted surface with a contact angle of approximately 1.4 radians. The droplet is 0.2mm in diameter and is initially positioned 1mm above the surface. I have used the level set method and the left side of the domain is a line of axial symmetry, the upper and right sides are open boundaries and the bottom side represents the wetted wall. Despite using high performance computing to run the simulation it does not converge after 2 days of running.

Would anyone please be able to make any suggestions to help solve the problem? It would be much appreciated.

Kind regards,

Alistair
