Leidenfrost Dynamics: Supplemental Video 10
Abstract
A supplemental video from the 2013 review by David Quéré, "Leidenfrost Dynamics," from the Annual Review of Fluid Mechanics.
Impact of a water drop at We = 16 on a solid at 380°C. The droplet ejection is no longer observed: This defines a dynamical Leidenfrost situation, in which there is no contact with the plate despite the impact. (This corresponds to the film-boiling-regime data in Figure 8.) Credits: Tuan Tran and Detlef Lohse.
