The Formation of a Bubble from a Submerged Orifice
Jonathan A. Simmons, James E. Sprittles, Yulii D. Shikhmurzaev
The formation of a single bubble from an orifice in a solid surface, submerged in an in- compressible, viscous Newtonian liquid, is simulated. The finite element method is used to…
The Coalescence of Liquid Drops in a Viscous Fluid: Interface Formation Model
James E. Sprittles, Yulii D. Shikhmurzaev
The interface formation model is applied to describe the initial stages of the coalescence of two liquid drops in the presence of a viscous ambient fluid whose dynamics is fully ac…
A Parametric Study of the Coalescence of Liquid Drops in a Viscous Gas
James E. Sprittles, Yulii D. Shikhmurzaev
The coalescence of two liquid drops surrounded by a viscous gas is considered in the framework of the conventional model. The problem is solved numerically with particular attentio…
The Dynamics of Liquid Drops Coalescing in the Inertial Regime
James E. Sprittles, Yulii D. Shikhmurzaev
We examine the dynamics of two coalescing liquid drops in the `inertial regime', where the effects of viscosity are negligible and the propagation of the bridge front connecting th…
Dynamic contact angle of a liquid spreading on an unsaturated wettable porous substrate
Y. D. Shikhmurzaev, J. E. Sprittles
The spreading of an incompressible viscous liquid over an isotropic homogeneous unsaturated porous substrate is considered. It is shown that, unlike the dynamic wetting of an imper…
On the anomalous dynamics of capillary rise in porous media
Yulii Shikhmurzaev, James Sprittles
The anomalous dynamics of capillary rise in a porous medium discovered experimentally more than a decade ago (Delker et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 76 (1996) 2902) is described. The deve…
