Pore-scale analysis of the minimum liquid film thickness around elongated bubbles in confined gas-liquid flows

John Richard Thome, Alessio Ferrari, Mirco Magnini, Albert Matthias Beisel

The fluid mechanics of elongated bubbles in confined gas-liquid flows in micro-geometries is important in pore-scale flow processes for enhanced oil recovery and mobilization of colloids in unsaturated soil. The efficiency of such processes is traditionall ...

Undulations on the surface of elongated bubbles in confined gas-liquid flows

John Richard Thome, Alessio Ferrari, Mirco Magnini

A systematic analysis is presented of the undulations appearing on the surface of long bubbles in confined gas-liquid flows. CFD simulations of the flow are performed with a self-improved version of the open-source solver ESI OpenFOAM (release 2.3.1), for ...

Dynamics of falling films on the outside of a vertical rotating cylinder: waves, rivulets and dripping transitions

François Gallaire, Nicolas Igor Jacques Kofman

Falling liquid films on the underside of a plate or on the outside of a rotating cylinder are subject to a destabilizing body force. The evolution of the film topology is determined by interactions between the Kapitza and the Rayleigh-Taylor instability, l ...

A CFD study of the parameters influencing heat transfer in microchannel slug flow boiling

John Richard Thome, Mirco Magnini

Boiling heat transfer in microchannels has been investigated extensively in the last two decades. However, most results from independent experimental studies display a substantial disagreement on the influence of the flow conditions and mechanisms on the h ...

Computer modelling of the surface tension of the gas-liquid and liquid-liquid interface

Dominic John Tildesley

This review presents the state of the art in molecular simulations of interfacial systems and of the calculation of the surface tension from the underlying intermolecular potential. We provide a short account of different methodological factors (size-effec ...

Critical inclination for absolute/convective instability transition in inverted falling films

Nicolas Igor Jacques Kofman

Liquid films flowing down the underside of inclined plates are subject to the interaction between the hydrodynamic and the Rayleigh-Taylor (R-T) instabilities causing a patterned and wavy topology at the free surface. The R-T instability results from the d ...

Laser-Assisted Photoelectric Effect from Liquids

Majed Chergui, Frank van Mourik, Christopher Alexander Arrell, Lars-Hendrik Mewes, José Javier Pancracio Ojeda Andara, Jakob Grilj

The laser-assisted photoelectric effect from liquid surfaces is reported for the first time. Photoelectrons generated by 35.6 eV radiation from a liquid microjet of water under vacuum are dressed with (h) over bar omega = 1.55 eV laser field. The subsequen ...

Computational Study of Saturated Flow Boiling Within a Microchannel in the Slug Flow Regime

John Richard Thome, Mirco Magnini

This paper presents a fundamental study of the flow dynamics and heat transfer induced by a slug flow under saturated flow boiling in a circular microchannel. Numerical simulations are carried out by utilizing the commercial CFD solver ANSYS FLUENT v. 14.5 ...
