Inertial effects on the interphase drag force and rheology of dilute suspensions of buoyant droplets at low Reynolds number
Nicolas Fintzi, Jean-Lou Pierson
In this work, we compute the hydrodynamic force and the first and second moments of force acting on a translating spherical droplet immersed in a uniform flow using the reciprocal…

Fluid-inertia torques from particle-shape symmetry
L. Sundberg, F. Candelier, N. Fintzi +4
Numerical simulation of particle motion in fluids at low particle Reynolds numbers is often based on empirical force and torque models obtained by fitting force and torque from ab-…

Averaged equations for disperse two-phase flow with interfacial properties and their closures for dilute suspension of droplets
Nicolas Fintzi, Jean-Lou Pierson
This article provides a derivation of the averaged equations governing the motion of dispersed two-phase flows with interfacial transport. We begin by revisiting the two-fluid form…
