Dynamic solid-liquid interaction as a liquid droplet-movement on inclined hydrophilic~hydrophobic surfaces was investigated. The liquid droplet movement was affected by a surface energy, roughness, and homogeneity of the solid surface, and furthermore it is suggested that the internal fluidity detected by Particle Image Velocimetry method determined the rate. The movement also depended on the shape of a droplet, that possibly changed the internal flow drastically. In this presentation, we will discuss about the detail of relations among them.
