In [16], during an experiment designed to model the internal circulation of a forming droplet, secondary surface flows were observed on the droplet interface. After summarizing the experimental results of [16], we present one possible mechanism, based on the surface surfactant mass transport equation of Levich and the surface stress-strain boundary conditions at a free surface, that provides a good qualitative explanation of the origins and the nature of the secondary motion observed in [16]. The critical hypotheses in this mechanism are that the normal component of ihe vorticity at the free surface is determined primarily by the components of the velocity field tangential to the level lines of the surface surfactant density, near the maxima and minima of that density function and that the normal component of the fluid stress does not vanish at such points. The consequent analysis of the mass transport equation in the interface shows that the resulting surface motion may be viewed as arising from a resonance phenomenon analogous to the forced vibrations of a spring at resonance. The effects of adsorbtion-desorbtion and surface dilational viscosity may be incorporated in this mechanism. A method for the experimental measurement of surface dilational viscosities is proposed. |
