3D drop deformation and breakup in simple shear flow considering the effect of insoluble surfactant
We have developed a multi-phase SPH method to simulate arbitrary interfaces containing surface active agents (surfactants) that locally change the properties of the interface, such the surface tension coefficient [1]. Our method incorporates the effects of surface diffusion, transport of surfactant from/to the bulk phase to/from the interface and diffusion in the bulk phase. Neglecting transpor...
متن کاملInfluence of Interlayer Exchanges on Vorticity-Aligned Colloidal String Assembly in a Simple Shear Flow
Hard spheres in Newtonian fluids serve as paradigms for nonNewtonian materials phenomena exhibited by colloidal suspensions. A recent experimental study (Cheng et al. Science 2011, 333, 1276) showed that upon application of shear to such a system the particles form string-like structures aligned in the vorticity direction. We explore the mechanism underlying this outof-equilibrium organization ...
متن کاملAssembly of vorticity-aligned hard-sphere colloidal strings in a simple shear flow.
Colloidal suspensions self-assemble into equilibrium structures ranging from face- and body-centered cubic crystals to binary ionic crystals, and even kagome lattices. When driven out of equilibrium by hydrodynamic interactions, even more diverse structures can be accessed. However, mechanisms underlying out-of-equilibrium assembly are much less understood, though such processes are clearly rel...
متن کاملNumerical simulation of breakup of a viscous drop in simple shear flow through a volume-of-fluid method
A spherical drop, placed in a second liquid of the same density, is subjected to shearing between parallel plates. The subsequent flow is investigated numerically with a volume-of-fluid ~VOF! method. The scheme incorporates a semi-implicit Stokes solver to enable computations at low Reynolds number. Our simulations compare well with previous theoretical, numerical, and experimental results. For...
متن کاملFluid Mechanics and Transport Phenomena Influence of Dynamic Interfacial Properties on Droplet Breakup in Simple Shear Flow
The breakup of droplets in an inhomogeneous flow is the key to emulsification. Frequently, the local flow experienced by the drops is a (quasi-) simple shear flow. The breakup of droplets in a steady, simple shear flow in the absence of emulsifiers has been studied extensively. In the presence of emulsifiers, the droplet interface may acquire viscoelastic properties, which are important in the ...
