in Cases 1 and 2 the simulations fail to capture the
oscillations of the droplet height. One possible reason
is limitations of the image processing method used to
measure droplet heights from photographs of droplet
impingement experiments.
5 MULTIPLE DROPLET IMPINGEMENT
The validity and the computational efficiency of our
numerical solver open up the possibility for study-
ing multiple-droplet impingement in 3D. We have
exemplified this capability with three different cases, ...
