Rayleigh-Bénard convection of a model emulsion: anomalous heat-flux fluctuations and finite-size droplets effects

Francesca Pelusi, Mauro Sbragaglia, Roberto Benzi +3

We present mesoscale numerical simulations of Rayleigh-Bénard (RB) convection in a two-dimensional model emulsion. The systems under study are constituted of finite-size droplets,…

Lattice Boltzmann simulations of stochastic thin film dewetting

Stefan Zitz, Andrea Scagliarini, Jens Harting

We study numerically the effect of thermal fluctuations and of variable fluid-substrate interactions on the spontaneous dewetting of thin liquid films. To this aim, we use a recent…

Convective heat transfer of a model emulsion at the droplet scale

Francesca Pelusi, Mauro Sbragaglia, Roberto Benzi +3

We numerically study the Rayleigh-Bénard (RB) convection in two-dimensional model emulsions confined between two parallel walls at fixed temperatures. The systems under study are h…

Effective modelling of the Rayleigh-Bénard convection of concentrated emulsions with finite-size droplets

Francesca Pelusi, Mauro Sbragaglia, Roberto Benzi +3

We present mesoscale numerical simulations of Rayleigh-Bénard convection in a two-dimensional concentrated emulsion, confined between two parallel walls, heated from below and cool…

Structure and rheology of suspensions of spherical strain-hardening capsules

Othmane Aouane, Andrea Scagliarini, Jens Harting

We investigate the rheology of strain-hardening spherical capsules, from the dilute to the concentrated regime under a confined shear flow using three-dimensional numerical simulat…

Rayleigh-Taylor turbulence with singular nonuniform initial conditions

Luca Biferale, Guido Boffetta, Alexei A. Mailybaev +1

We perform direct numerical simulations of three dimensional Rayleigh-Taylor turbulence with a nonuniform singular initial temperature background. In such conditions, the mixing la…
