Adsorption in a phase field model for wetting

  • Surface wetting can be described by using phase field models [1]. In these models, often either the contact angle or the surface tensions between the solid and the fluid are prescribed directly on the wall in order to represent the solid-fluid interaction. However, the interaction of the wall and the fluid are not strictly local. The influence of the wall, which can be described by wall potentials [2], reaches out into the fluid, which is the reason for the formation of adsorbate layers. The investigation shows how such a wall potential can be included into a phase field model of wetting. It is found that by considering this energy contribution, the model is able to capture the adsorbate layer.
