Influence of Capillary Number on the droplet Shape, Film Thickness, and Pressure Drop in a Liquid-Liquid Taylor Flow inside a Microcapillary [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematical, Engineering and Management Sciences, 2019
Numerical analysis of a two-dimensional, axisymmetric, incompressible, laminar liquid-liquid Taylor flow inside a vertical circular microchannel is carried out in the present study. The focus is laid on fluid flow characteristics in the slug flow regime.

A new Volume-of-Fluid method in OpenFOAM

open access: yes, 2017
To realise the full potential of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) within ma- rine science and engineering, there is a need for continuous maturing as well as verification and validation of the numerical methods used for free surface and interfacial flows.

Experimental and numerical investigations of liquid mercury droplet impacts

open access: yesJournal of Fluid Science and Technology, 2014
A broad investigation into the hydrodynamics of liquid mercury has been motivated of late by its use in MW-scale spallation neutron sources. One area of particular concern relates to the erosion suffered by vessel walls from the cumulative effects of ...

Influence of Six-Degree-of-Freedom Motion of a Large Marine Data Buoy on Wind Speed Monitoring Accuracy

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
In order to quantitatively analyze the data measurement accuracy of ocean buoys under normal and extreme sea conditions, in this study, we simulated the six-degree-of-freedom motion response of self-designed ocean buoys under different sea conditions ...

Spreading of Micrometer-Sized Droplets under the Influence of Insoluble and Soluble Surfactants: A Numerical Study

open access: yesColloids and Interfaces, 2019
Wetting and spreading of surfactant solutions play an important role in many technical applications. In printing processes, the size of individual droplets is typically on the order of a few tens of microns.

Development of numerical method for mass transfer from a buoyant bubble under a high Schmidt number condition

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2016
Under a high Schmidt number condition, concentration boundary layers get much thinner than momentum boundary layers. Resolution requirement to numerically capture the steep concentration gradient near an interface is therefore significantly high.
