Maximum Droplet Volume on Horizontal Cylindrical Surfaces The maximum volume (Ω) of a droplet that can remain attached to a horizontal fiber defines the stability limit of droplet-fiber interactions, phenomena common in nature and critical to diverse enginee...

Predicting droplet-fiber interactions is now more accurate: a validated semi-empirical model captures the maximum droplet volume across a wide range of fiber sizes and wettabilities.
