Exactly! ... these currents cause a non-zero velocity in the cells which means that the droplets moves no matter what inclination angle the plane has. I tried to reduce these currents as much as...

I don't really know that "much" about the implementation of the Kistler model. But in the thread concerning this implementation (see link below), the hysteresis was briefly mentioned. You can take a...

Critical Inclination

Dear FOAMers,

im struggling for about three week with a tiny problem. I want to simulate a simple spherical droplet on an inclined plane and find out at which inclination the droplet (to be more...
