Microlayer in nucleate boiling seen as Landau-Levich film with dewetting and evaporation
Cassiano Tecchio, Xiaolong Zhang, Benjamin Cariteau +6
Both experimental and theoretical studies on the microscale and fast physical phenomena occurring during the growth of vapor bubbles in nucleate pool boiling are reported. The focu…
Time-averaged approach to the dewetting problem at evaporation
Xiaolong Zhang, Vadim Nikolayev
Dewetting of liquid films on solid surfaces in the presence of evaporation is a common phenomenon and has been studied by many researchers. The previous numerical approach has reve…
Lagrangian model for passive scalar gradients in turbulence
Xiaolong Zhang, Maurizio Carbone, Andrew D. Bragg
The equation for the fluid velocity gradient along a Lagrangian trajectory immediately follows from the Navier-Stokes equation. However, such an equation involves two terms that ca…
Analysis of scale-dependent kinetic and potential energy in sheared, stably stratified turbulence
Xiaolong Zhang, Rohit Dhariwal, Gavin Portwood +2
Budgets of turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) and turbulent potential energy (TPE) at different scales in sheared, stably stratified turbulence are analyzed using a filtering ap…
Liquid film dynamics with immobile contact line during meniscus oscillation
Xiaolong Zhang, Vadim Nikolayev
This paper presents a theoretical analysis of the liquid film dynamics during the oscillation of a meniscus between a liquid and its vapour in a cylindrical capillary. By using the…
