Direct Numerical Study of a Molten Metal Drop Solidifying on a Cold Plate with Different Wettability

This paper presents a direct numerical simulation of solidification of a molten metal drop on a cold plate with various wettability by an axisymmetric front-tracking method. Because of the plate kept at a temperature below the fusion value of the melt, a thin solid layer forms at the plate and evolv...
