Abstract
Coalescence of a falling droplet with a sessile droplet on solid surface with various wettabilities is investigated by a combined experimental and numerical study. In the experiments, the droplet diameter, the impact velocity, and the distance between the impacting droplets were controlled. The evolution of surface shape during the coalescence of two droplets on various surfaces is captured using high speed imaging and compared with numerical results. A two-phase volume of fluid method is used to determine the dynamics of droplet coalescence, shape evaluation, and contact line movement. The spreading length of two coalescing droplets along their original centers is also predicted by the model and compared well with the experimental results. The effect of different parameters such as impact velocity, center to center distance, droplet size, and surface wettability on maximum spreading length are studied and compared to the experimental results. Finally, correlations are developed for predicting the maximum spreading length using both experimental and numerical results.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
