MODELING SURFACE TENSION AND WALL ADHESION IN MOLD FILLING PROCESS
Abstract: In this study an algorithm for mold-filling simulation with consideration of surface tension has been developed based on a SOLA VOF scheme. As the governing equations, the Navier-Stokes equations for incompressible and laminar flows were used. We proposed a way of considering surface tension in mold-filling simulation. The proposed scheme for surface tension was based on the conti...
متن کاملGravitational compression of colloidal gels.
We study the compression of depletion gels under the influence of a gravitational stress by monitoring the time evolution of the gel interface and the local volume fraction, φ, inside the gel. We find φ is not constant throughout the gel. Instead, there is a volume fraction gradient that develops and grows along the gel height as the compression process proceeds. Our results are correctly descr...
متن کاملGravitational collapse of colloidal gels.
We present a unified framework for understanding the compaction of colloidal gels under their own weight. The dynamics of the collapse are determined by the value of the gravitational stress sigma(g), as compared to the yield stress sigma(Y) of the network. For sigma(g)sigma(Y), th...
متن کاملPreparation of Colloidal Sols and Gels Objective
Colloidal suspensions are used to generate polymers or particles from which ceramic materials can be made by the sol-gel process. The precursors for preparation of a colloidal suspension consist of a metal element surrounded by various ligands (attached groups not including another metal). For example, common precursors for sol-gel synthesis of aluminum oxide include inorganic salts such as Al(...
متن کاملOptically transparent dense colloidal gels
Traditionally it has been difficult to study the porous structure of dense colloidal gels and (macro) molecular transport through them simply because of the difference in refractive index between the colloid material and the continuous fluid phase surrounding it, rendering the samples opaque even at low colloidal volume fractions. Here, we demonstrate a novel colloidal gel that can be refractiv...
