Abstract

The evaluation of nanoparticle dispersion within viscoelastic fluids upon impact on hydrophobic and hydrophilic surfaces is conducted using the Euler-Lagrangian technique. The volume-of-fluid approach is employed in conjunction with the Lagrangian method to model the transport of nanoparticles in a three-phase system (particles-air-viscoelastic fluid). The assessment of nanoparticle dispersion was conducted over a range of Péclet numbers and contact angles (
