Heterogeneous cavitation from atomically smooth liquid-liquid interfaces
Patricia Pfeiffer, Meysam Shahrooz, Marco Tortora +5
Pressure reduction in liquids may result in vaporization and bubble formation. This thermodynamic process is termed cavitation. It is commonly observed in hydraulic machinery, ship…
Unraveling the Salvinia paradox: design principles for submerged superhydrophobicity
Matteo Amabili, Alberto Giacomello, Simone Meloni +1
The complex structure of the Salvinia molesta is investigated via rare event molecular dynamics simulations. Results show that a hydrophilic/hydrophobic patterning together with a…
Intermittency and energy fluxes in the surface layer of free-surface turbulence
Guido Troiani, Francesco Cioffi, Angelo Olivieri +1
By analyzing hot-wire velocity data taken in an open channel flow, an unambiguous definition of surface-layer thickness is here provided in terms of the cross-over scale between ba…
Shock formation in the collapse of a vapor nano-bubble
Francesco Magaletti, Luca Marino, Carlo Massimo Casciola
In this paper a diffuse-interface model featuring phase change, transition to supercritical conditions, thermal conduction, compressibility effects and shock wave propagation is ex…
