A predictive model for bubble-particle collisions in turbulence

Timothy T. K. Chan, Linfeng Jiang, Dominik Krug

The modelling of bubble-particle collisions is crucial to improving the efficiency of industrial processes such as froth flotation. Although such systems usually have turbulent flo…

To jump or not to jump: Adhesion and viscous dissipation dictate the detachment of coalescing wall-attached bubbles

Çayan Demirkır, Rui Yang, Aleksandr Bashkatov +3

Bubble coalescence can promote bubble departure at much smaller sizes compared to buoyancy. This can critically enhance the efficiency of gas-evolving electrochemical processes, su…

The effect of gravity on bubble-particle collisions in turbulence

Timothy T. K. Chan, Linfeng Jiang, Dominik Krug

Bubble-particle collisions in turbulence are key to the froth flotation process that is widely employed industrially to separate hydrophobic from hydrophilic materials. In our prev…

Electrolyte spraying within H bubbles during water electrolysis

Aleksandr Bashkatov, Florian Bürkle, Çayan Demirkır +10

Electrolytically generated gas bubbles can significantly hamper the overall electrolysis efficiency. Therefore it is crucial to understand their dynamics in order to optimise water…

How turbulence increases the bubble-particle collision rate

Linfeng Jiang, Dominik Krug

We study the effect of turbulence on collisions between a finite-size bubble and small inertial particles based on interface-resolved simulations. Our results show that the interac…

Performance enhancement of electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution through coalescence-induced bubble dynamics

Aleksandr Bashkatov, Sunghak Park, Çayan Demirkır +4

The evolution of electrogenerated gas bubbles during water electrolysis can significantly hamper the overall process efficiency. Promoting the departure of electrochemically genera…

Mass transport at gas-evolving electrodes

Farzan Sepahi, Roberto Verzicco, Detlef Lohse +1

Direct numerical simulations are utilised to investigate mass transfer processes at gas-evolving electrodes that experience successive formation and detachment of bubbles. The gas-…
