Catastrophic phase inversion in high-Reynolds number turbulent Taylor--Couette flow
Dennis Bakhuis, Rodrigo Ezeta, Pim A. Bullee +4
Emulsions are omnipresent in the food industry, health care, and chemical synthesis. In this Letter the dynamics of meta-stable oil-water emulsions in highly turbulent ($10^{11}\le…
Characterizing the turbulent drag properties of rough surfaces with a Taylor--Couette setup
Pieter Berghout, Pim A. Bullee, Thomas Fuchs +5
Wall-roughness induces extra drag in wall-bounded turbulent flows. Mapping any given roughness geometry to its fluid dynamic behaviour has been hampered by the lack of accurate and…
Bubbly drag reduction using a hydrophobic inner cylinder in Taylor-Couette turbulence
Pim A. Bullee, Ruben A. Verschoof, Dennis Bakhuis +4
In this study we experimentally investigate bubbly drag reduction in a highly turbulent flow of water with dispersed air at $5.0 \times 10^{5} \leq \text{Re} \leq 1.7 \times 10^{6}…
Effect of axially varying sandpaper roughness on bubbly drag reduction in Taylor-Couette turbulence
Pim A. Bullee, Dennis Bakhuis, Rodrigo Ezeta +4
We experimentally investigate the influence of alternating rough and smooth walls on bubbly drag reduction (DR). We apply rough sandpaper bands of width between and…
