Experimental Setup

The experimental setup shown in Fig. 3 can be divided into three main units including the drop generator, the impact substrate and the observation system.

  • The drop generator is based on a drop on demand method. A micropump transports the liquid from a tank to the cannula. The drop drips off the cannula tip by gravity as soon as the critical mass is reached. A vertical tube reduces the influence of the air flow in the room on the trajectory of the falling drop, so that the point of impact remains reproducible. The impact velocity of the drop is varied by altering the height of the cannula tip relative to the liquid film interface.
  • The impact substrate is an aluminum block with a recess of 70 mm diameter and 0.6 mm depth. The recess constrains the liquid so that films with a defined film thickness can be placed. The film thickness is measured by a chromatic line Sensor (Precitec CHRocodile CLS) which allows measuring the film thickness on 192 points aligned on a line of 1 mm length, to assure uniform film thickness.
