Computational Fluid Dynamic Analysis of Fluid Motion and Volumetric Gas-Liquid Mass Transfer in Agitated Platelet Concentrate Storage. [PDF]
Graphical Abstract and Lay Summary Platelets (PLTs) are small blood cells that play a vital role in stopping bleeding. After donation, they are stored in special bags, but their quality decreases over time. One reason for this decline is the mechanical stress they experience during collection, processing, and storage.

An All-Mach Number HLLC-Based Scheme for Multi-Phase Flow with Surface Tension
This paper presents an all-Mach method for two-phase inviscid flow in the presence of surface tension. A modified version of the Hartens–Lax–van Leer Contact (HLLC) solver is developed and combined for the first time with a widely used volume-of-fluid ...

Condensation in a Square Minichannel: Application of the VOF Method [PDF]
A number of steady-state numerical simulations of condensation of R134a at mass fluxes of 400 kg m−2 s−1 and 800 kg m−2 s−1 inside a 1-mm square cross section minichannel are proposed here and compared against simulations in a circular cross section channel with the same hydraulic diameter.

Numerical Simulation of Bubble and Velocity Distribution in a Furnace
An industrial furnace, such as a blast furnace, molten salt furnace and a basic oxygen furnace, is a popular reactor, where the distribution of liquid, flow pattern of the fluid and the velocity of the fluid determine the energy distribution and chemical

Coupling non-local rheology and volume of fluid (VOF) method: a finite volume method (FVM) implementation [PDF]
Additional to a behavior switching between solid-like and liquid-like, dense granular flows also present propagating grain size-dependent effects also called non-local effects. Such behaviors cannot be efficiently modeled by standard rheologies such as µ(
