Water droplet dynamics and evaporation in airtanker firefighting
Fabian Denner
This study presents the first systematic investigation of the dynamics of individual water droplets in the context of airtanker firefighting. While previous work has focused on gro…
Fully coupled implicit finite-volume algorithm for viscoelastic interfacial flows
Ayman Mazloum, Gabriele Gennari, Fabian Denner +1
A fully coupled implicit finite-volume algorithm for incompressible viscoelastic interfacial flows is proposed, whereby the viscoelasticity of the flow is described by an upper-con…
A marching cubes based method for topology changes in three-dimensional two-phase flows with front tracking
Gabriele Gennari, Christian Gorges, Fabian Denner +1
The handling of topology changes in two-phase flows, such as breakup or coalescence of interfaces, with front tracking is a well-known problem that requires an additional effort to…
Sharp front tracking with geometric interface reconstruction
Christian Gorges, Fabien Evrard, Robert Chiodi +2
This paper presents a novel sharp front-tracking method designed to address limitations in classical front-tracking approaches, specifically their reliance on smooth interpolation…
Self-sorting of bidisperse particles in evaporating sessile droplets
Aman Kumar Jain, Fabian Denner, Berend van Wachem
This study investigates the dispersion and self-sorting dynamics of bidisperse particles, i.e., a mixture of two distinct particle sizes, during the evaporation of ethanol droplets…
Correlations for aerodynamic force coefficients of non-spherical particles in compressible flows
Christian Gorges, Victor Chéron, Anjali Chopra +2
This study presents particle-resolved direct numerical simulations using three-dimensional body-fitted hexahedral meshes to investigate the aerodynamic force and torque coefficient…
