Rayleigh-Bénard thermal convection in emulsions: a short review
Francesca Pelusi, Andrea Scagliarini, Mauro Sbragaglia +2
Thermally driven emulsions arise in a broad range of natural and industrial contexts, yet their fundamental physical understanding remains only partially established. Emulsions exh…
Role of interfacial stabilization in the Rayleigh-Bénard convection of liquid-liquid dispersions
Francesca Pelusi, Andrea Scagliarini, Mauro Sbragaglia +2
Based on mesoscale lattice Boltzmann numerical simulations, we characterize the Rayleigh-Bénard (RB) convective dynamics of dispersions of liquid droplets in another liquid phase.…
Dynamical regimes of thermally convective emulsions
Francesca Pelusi, Andrea Scagliarini, Mauro Sbragaglia +2
Emulsions are paramount in various interdisciplinary topical areas, yet a satisfactory understanding of their behavior in buoyancy-driven thermal flows has not been established. In…
Intermittent thermal convection in jammed emulsions
Francesca Pelusi, Andrea Scagliarini, Mauro Sbragaglia +2
We study the process of thermal convection in jammed emulsions with a yield-stress rheology. We find that heat transfer occurs via an intermittent mechanism, whereby intense short-…
Lattice Boltzmann method with self-consistent thermo-hydrodynamic equilibria
M. Sbragaglia, R. Benzi, L. Biferale +3
Lattice kinetic equations incorporating the effects of external/internal force fields via a shift of the local fields in the local equilibria, are placed within the framework of co…
