Geometric criteria for the snap‐off of a non‐wetting droplet in pore‐throat channels with rectangular cross‐sections

L Cha, C **e, Q Feng, M Balhoff - Water Resources Research, 2021 - Wiley Online Library
Snap‐off is a phenomenon that occurs when a non‐wetting fluid is displaced by wetting fluid
in pore‐throat channels, leading to the breakup of droplets at the throat. Snap‐off plays a …
