Effect of radius ratios of two droplets on coalescence-induced self-propelled jumping

The coalescence-induced self-propelled droplet jumping behaviors on superhydrophobic surfaces have attracted extensive interest, due to a huge application potential. The coalescence and jumping of two droplets with different radius ratios are numerically simulated, and the jumping velocity is theore...
