Influence of Thermodynamic Effect on Blade Load in a Cavitating Inducer by Kengo Kikuta, Noriyuki Shimiya, Tomoyuki Hashimoto, Mitsuru Shimagaki, Hideaki Nanri, Yoshiki Yoshida

“…Because the cavitation growth is suppressed by the thermodynamic effect, the distribution of the blade load does not change even at lower cavitation number. By contrast, the pressure distribution in liquid nitrogen has the same tendency as that in water if the cavity length at the blade tip is taken as a cavitation indication. …”

Droplets impact on sparse microgrooved non-wetting surfaces by Longfei Zhang, Jialong Wu, Yingfa Lu, Yingsong Yu

“…Second, for the case of droplets impacting on sparse microgrooved PDMS surfaces, it was found that droplets can bounce off the micro-patterned surface with a solid fraction of 0.158 when the impact velocity was in a certain range. The lower limit of impact velocity for bouncing droplets can be determined by balancing the kinetic energy of the droplets with the energy barrier due to contact angle hysteresis. …”
