| dc.description.abstract | This paper studies the nature of the effective velocity boundary conditions for liquid flow over a plane boundary on which small free-slip islands are randomly distributed. It is found that, to lowest order in the area fraction ? covered by free-slip regions with characteristic size a, a macroscopic Navier-type slip condition emerges with a slip length of the order of a?. The study is motivated by recent experiments which suggest that gas nano-bubbles may form on solid walls and may be responsible for the appearance of a partial slip boundary conditions for liquid flow. The results are also relevant for ultra-hydrophobic surfaces exploiting the so-called “lotus effect”. | |
