Rising and settling 2D cylinders with centre-of-mass offset

Martin P. A. Assen, Jelle B. Will, Chong Shen Ng +3

Rotational effects are commonly neglected when considering the dynamics of freely rising or settling isotropic particles. Here, we demonstrate that particle rotations play an impor…

Towards realistic simulations of human cough: effect of droplet emission duration and spread angle

Mogeng Li, Kai Leong Chong, Chong Shen Ng +6

Human respiratory events, such as coughing and sneezing, play an important role in the host-to-host airborne transmission of diseases. Thus, there has been a substantial effort in…

Bubble-particle collisions in turbulence: insights from point-particle simulations

Timothy T. K. Chan, Chong Shen Ng, Dominik Krug

Bubble-particle collisions in turbulence are central to a variety of processes such as froth flotation. Despite their importance, details of the collision process have not received…

Strong alignment of prolate ellipsoids in Taylor-Couette flow

Martin P. A. Assen, Chong Shen Ng, Jelle B. Will +3

We report on the mobility and orientation of finite-size, neutrally buoyant prolate ellipsoids (of aspect ratio ) in Taylor-Couette flow, using interface resolved numerical si…

An efficient phase-field method for turbulent multiphase flows

Hao-Ran Liu, Chong Shen Ng, Kai Leong Chong +2

With the aim of efficiently simulating three-dimensional multiphase turbulent flows with a phase-field method, we propose a new discretization scheme for the biharmonic term (the 4…

Enhancing Heat Transport in Multiphase Rayleigh-Bénard Turbulence by Changing the Plate-Liquid Contact Angles

Hao-Ran Liu, Kai Leong Chong, Chong Shen Ng +2

This numerical study presents a simple but extremely effective way to considerably enhance heat transport in turbulent multiphase flows, namely by using oleophilic walls. As a mode…
