Influence of thermal effects on stability of nanoscale films and filaments on thermally conductive substrates
Ivana Seric, Shahriar Afkhami, Lou Kondic
We consider films and filaments of nanoscale thickness on thermally conductive substrates exposed to external heating. Particular focus is on metal films exposed to laser irradiati…
Ferrofluids and magnetically guided superparamagnetic particles in flows: A review of simulations and modeling
S. Afkhami, Y. Renardy
Ferrofluids are typically suspensions of magnetite nanoparticles, and behave as a homogeneous continuum. The production of nanoparticles with a narrow size distribution and the ach…
Transition in a numerical model of contact line dynamics and forced dewetting
S. Afkhami, J. Buongiorno, A. Guion +4
We investigate the transition to a Landau-Levich-Derjaguin film in forced dewetting using a quadtree adaptive solution to the Navier-Stokes equations with surface tension. We use a…
Direct numerical simulation of variable surface tension flows using a Volume-of-Fluid method
Ivana Seric, Shahriar Afkhami, Lou Kondic
We develop a general methodology for the inclusion of variable surface tension into a Volume-of-Fluid based Navier-Stokes solver. This new numerical model provides a robust and acc…
