Boundary conditions at the liquid-solid interface play a crucial role in the dynamics of a liquid film on a fiber. This study develops a theoretical framework based on axisymmetric Stokes equations to investigate the influence of liquid-solid slip on the Rayleigh-Plateau instability of a cylindrical film. The new model reveals that the growth rate of perturbations is overestimated by the classical lubrication model and predicts a slip-dependent dominant wavelength, leading to larger drops on a more slippery fiber. The findings are validated through direct numerical simulations and agree with experimental results.
Boundary conditions at a liquid-solid interface are crucial to dynamics of a liquid film coated on a fibre. Here, a theoretical framework based on axisymmetric Stokes equations is developed to explore the influence of liquid-solid slip on the Rayleigh-Plateau instability of a cylindrical film on a fibre. The new model not only shows that the slip-enhanced growth rate of perturbations is overestimated by the classical lubrication model, but also indicates a slip-dependent dominant wavelength, instead of a constant value obtained by the lubrication method, which leads to larger drops formed on a more slippery fibre. The theoretical findings are validated by direct numerical simulations of Navier-Stokes equations via a volume-of-fluid method. Additionally, the slip-dependent dominant wavelengths predicted by our model agree with the experimental results provided by Haefner et al. (Nat. Commun., vol. 6, issue 1, 2015, 7409).
