Comparison of Surface Tension Models for the Volume of Fluid Method

open access: yesProcesses, 2019
With the increasing use of Computational Fluid Dynamics to investigate multiphase flow scenarios, modelling surface tension effects has been a topic of active research. A well known associated problem is the generation of spurious velocities (or currents)

A volume of fluid method for simulating fluid/fluid interfaces in contact with solid boundaries

open access: yes, 2015
In this paper, we present a novel approach to model the fluid/solid interaction forces in a direct solver of the Navier-Stokes equations based on the volume of fluid interface tracking method.

Waveform Design Method for Piezoelectric Print-Head Based on Iterative Learning and Equivalent Circuit Model

open access: yesMicromachines, 2023
Piezoelectric print-heads (PPHs) are used with a variety of fluid materials with specific functions. Thus, the volume flow rate of the fluid at the nozzle determines the formation process of droplets, which is used to design the drive waveform of the PPH,

A suitable parametrization to simulate slug flows with the Volume-Of-Fluid method [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Diffuse–interface methods, such as the Volume-Of-Fluid method, are often used to simulate complex multiphase flows even if they require significant computation time.

Modeling of vertical microplastic transport by rising bubbles

open access: yesMicroplastics and Nanoplastics, 2023
Microplastic particle concentration at the sea surface is critical for quantifying microplastic transport across the water-air interface. Previous studies suggest that the concentration at the sea surface is enhanced compared to bulk concentration, yet ...
