The hydrodynamic patterns of the impingement of a water droplet train on a high temperature substrate are captured with a high-speed camera, and then analyzed. The tested droplets range from 8.8 m s−1 to 18.9 m s−1 in velocity, from 92 μm to 121 μm in diameter and from 28.01 kHz to 56.56 kHz in freq...
