Transitions of breakup regimes for viscous droplets in airflow
Zhikun Xu, Tianyou Wang, Zhizhao Che
Droplet breakup is important in many natural and industrial processes, but the current classification of breakup regimes, especially the intermediate breakup regime, is ambiguous.…
Deformation and breakup of compound droplets in airflow
Zhikun Xu, Yue Zhang, Tianyou Wang +1
Hypothesis: Immiscible liquids are commonly used to achieve unique functions in many applications, where the breakup of compound droplets in airflow is an important process. Due to…
Breakup of particle-laden droplets in airflow
Zhikun Xu, Tianyou Wang, Zhizhao Che
The atomisation of suspension containing liquid and dispersed particles is prevalent in many applications. Previous studies of droplet breakup mainly focused on homogeneous fluids,…
Droplet breakup in airflow with strong shear effect
Zhikun Xu, Tianyou Wang, Zhizhao Che
The deformation and breakup of droplets in airflows is important in spray and atomisation processes, but the shear effect in non-uniform airflow is rarely reported. In this study,…
Numerical simulation of secondary breakup of shear-thinning droplets
Yang Li, Zhikun Xu, Xiaoyun Peng +2
The breakup of non-Newtonian droplets is ubiquitous in numerous applications. Although the non-Newtonian property can significantly change the droplet breakup process, most previou…
Droplet deformation and breakup in shear flow of air
Zhikun Xu, Tianyou Wang, Zhizhao Che
The deformation and breakup of droplets in air flows is important in many applications of spray and atomization processes. However, the shear effect of airflow has never been repor…
