Drop Impact of YSZ droplet particle with a large solid core

For information about numerical simulation of Yttria-Stabilized Zirconia(YSZ) droplet impact, please visit the paper at SpringLink:

* The droplet size is 50 micron, and solid core size is 20 micron
* The impact velosity is 100 m/s
* The large solid core imposes a higher resistance to fluid motion
* Fluid retreats due to surface tension forces

Drop Impact of YSZ droplet particle with a small solid core

* The droplet size is 50 micron, and solid core size is 10 micron
* The impact velosity is 100 m/s
* density = 5560 kg/m^3
* viscosity = 0.029 kg/m-s
* surface tension = 0.43 N/m
* contact angle = 90 degree
