How does gravity influence freezing dynamics of drops on a solid surface

Hao Zeng, Sijia Lyu, Dominique Legendre +1

Water droplet freezing is a common phenomenon in our daily life. In both natural scenarios and industrial production, different surface inclinations bring distinctive deformation a…

Physical mechanisms for droplet size and effective viscosity asymmetries in turbulent emulsions

Lei Yi, Cheng Wang, Thomas van Vuren +4

By varying the oil volume fraction, the microscopic droplet size and the macroscopic rheology of emulsions are investigated in a Taylor-Couette (TC) turbulent shear flow. Although…

Micro-droplet nucleation through solvent exchange in a turbulent buoyant jet

You-An Lee, Chao Sun, Sander G. Huisman +1

Solvent exchange is a process involving mixing between a good solvent with dissolved solute and a poor solvent. The process creates local oversaturation which causes the nucleation…

Effects of radius ratio on annular centrifugal Rayleigh-Bénard convection

Dongpu Wang, Hechuan Jiang, Shuang Liu +2

We report on a three-dimensional direct numerical simulation study of flow structure and heat transport in the annular centrifugal Rayleigh-Bénard convection (ACRBC) system, with c…

Effect of axially varying sandpaper roughness on bubbly drag reduction in Taylor-Couette turbulence

Pim A. Bullee, Dennis Bakhuis, Rodrigo Ezeta +4

We experimentally investigate the influence of alternating rough and smooth walls on bubbly drag reduction (DR). We apply rough sandpaper bands of width between and…

Twente Mass and Heat Transfer Water Tunnel: Temperature controlled turbulent multiphase channel flow with heat and mass transfer

Biljana Gvozdić, On-Yu Dung, Dennis P. M. van Gils +5

A new vertical water tunnel with global temperature control and the possibility for bubble and local heat & mass injection has been designed and constructed. The new facility offer…
