Drag modelling for flows through assemblies of spherical particles with machine learning: A comparison of approaches

Julia Reuter, Hani Elmestikawy, Sanaz Mostaghim +1

Drag forces on particles in random assemblies can be accurately estimated through particle-resolved direct numerical simulations (PR-DNS). Despite its limited applicability to rela…

A new paradigm for computing hydrodynamic forces on particles in Euler-Lagrange point-particle simulations

Berend van Wachem, Hani Elmestikawy, Akshay Chandran +1

Accurate prediction of the hydrodynamic forces on particles is central to the fidelity of Euler-Lagrange (EL) simulations of particle-laden flows. Traditional EL methods typically…

Self-sorting of bidisperse particles in evaporating sessile droplets

Aman Kumar Jain, Fabian Denner, Berend van Wachem

This study investigates the dispersion and self-sorting dynamics of bidisperse particles, i.e., a mixture of two distinct particle sizes, during the evaporation of ethanol droplets…

Explicit Predictor-Corrector Method for Nonlinear Acoustic Waves Excited by a Moving Wave Emitting Boundary

Sören Schenke, Fabian Sewerin, Berend van Wachem +1

We present an explicit finite difference time domain method to solve the lossless Westervelt equation for a moving wave emitting boundary in one dimension and in spherical symmetry…

A unified algorithm for interfacial flows with incompressible and compressible fluids

Fabian Denner, Berend van Wachem

The majority of available numerical algorithms for interfacial two-phase flows either treat both fluid phases as incompressible (constant density) or treat both phases as compressi…

Quantifying the errors of the particle-source-in-cell Euler-Lagrange method

Fabien Evrard, Fabian Denner, Berend van Wachem

The particle-source-in-cell Euler-Lagrange (PSIC-EL) method is widely used to simulate flows laden with particles. Its accuracy, however, is known to deteriorate as the ratio betwe…

Numerical modelling of shock-bubble interactions using a pressure-based algorithm without Riemann solvers

Fabian Denner, Berend van Wachem

The interaction of a shock wave with a bubble features in many engineering and emerging technological applications, and has been used widely to test new numerical methods for compr…

Transient structures in rupturing thin-films: Marangoni-induced symmetry-breaking pattern formation in viscous fluids

Li Shen, Fabian Denner, Neal Morgan +2

In the minutes immediately preceeding the rupture of a soap bubble, distinctive and repeatable patterns can be observed. These quasi-stable transient structures are associated with…

Capillary waves with surface viscosity

Li Shen, Fabian Denner, Neal Morgan +2

Experiments over the last 50 years have suggested a tentative correlation between the surface (shear) viscosity and the stability of a foam or emulsion. We examine this link theore…
