Identifying and tracking bubbles and drops in simulations: a toolbox for obtaining sizes, lineages, and breakup and coalescence statistics

Wai Hong Ronald Chan, Michael S. Dodd, Perry L. Johnson +1

Knowledge of bubble and drop size distributions in two-phase flows is important for characterizing a wide range of phenomena, including combustor ignition, sonar communication, and…

The turbulent bubble break-up cascade. Part 2. Numerical simulations of breaking waves

Wai Hong Ronald Chan, Perry L. Johnson, Parviz Moin +1

Breaking waves generate a distribution of bubble sizes that evolves over time. Knowledge of how this distribution evolves is of practical importance for maritime and climate studie…

The turbulent bubble break-up cascade. Part 1. Theoretical developments

Wai Hong Ronald Chan, Perry Johnson, Parviz Moin

Breaking waves entrain gas beneath the surface. The wave-breaking process energizes turbulent fluctuations that break bubbles in quick succession to generate a wide range of bubble…

High Fidelity Simulations of Micro-Bubble Shedding from Retracting Thin Gas Films in the Context of Liquid-Liquid Impact

Shahab Mirjalili, Wai Hong Ronald Chan, Ali Mani

Micro-bubbles are of significant interest due to the long-living signature they leave behind naval ships. In order to numerically model and predict these bubbles in naval applicati…

Subgrid-scale modeling for microbubble generation amid colliding water surfaces

Wai Hong Ronald Chan, Javier Urzay, Parviz Moin

The generation of microbubbles upon the collision and interaction of liquid bodies in a gaseous environment is a ubiquitous process in two-phase flows, including large-scale phenom…
