“…Wakefield et al 26 also observed these hydrodynamic phenomena between a falling droplet and a sessile droplet and then developed an analytical model to predict the maximum spreading diameter based on the conservation of energy with two treatments of energy dissipation. Glezer and Zhuikov 27 carried out an experiment about an incident drop impacting a sessile drop and analyzed the convection behavior with and without graphite particles. Results showed that the mass transfer decreases with the presence of graphite particles after droplet impact.…”

Droplet impact is a common occurrence in nature, agriculture, and industry. The research on the multi‐droplet impact is fundamental to understanding the tangled nature of reality. This paper numerically studies the successive oblique impact of dual droplets on the liquid film by building an effective three‐dimensional model. The leading and trailing droplets are set to pass a certain impact point with the same velocity. The main contribution of this paper is the investigation of the effects of Weber number, liquid film thickness, impact angle, and impact time interval on the interface morphology evolution after the droplet impact. Results show that splash pattern conversion of the primary or secondary crown occurs with the change of these factors. Besides, the variations of the maximum crater radius in upstream, lateral, and downstream directions with time are quantitatively analyzed. The crater radius analysis is carried out from three perspectives, the variation during the single droplet impact, the change during the dual droplets impact, and the comparison between them. It is found that the crater of dual droplets impact exhibits shape distortion in the deformation period and appears a marked dimensional increase in the secondary expansion period.
