To simulate the interfacial behaviors in real heterogeneous systems, the point contact condition is constructed to study the classical immiscible displacement problem in this work. Specifically, the interfacial dynamics during the water droplet passing through the oil capillary bridge formed under the point contact condition is investigated. Emphasis is put on the influences of the wettabilities and the relative separation motion of the solid surfaces on the dynamic behavior of the droplets. The observations suggested that the capillary pressure had negligible effect on the movement of the water droplet when it was passing though the oil capillary bridge. The wettability and the relative separation of the disk and ball would influence the final adhesion behaviors of the water droplet after the droplet passed through the oil capillary bridge. Surface tension and adhesion energy were used to interpret these observations.
