چکیده

Impact of drops on the surface of an immiscible liquid is studied. We show that in addition to the commonly-observed lens structure at the air-liquid interface, drops released from critical heights above the target liquid can sustain the impact and at the end maintain a spherical ball-shape configuration above the surface despite undergoing large deformation. The existence of this metastable state of the drop above the free surface and its transition into the more stable submerged lens configuration at the air-liquid interface is investigated. The initial impact which induces the degree of submergence is critically related to the two distinct life paths of drops impinging upon a liquid surface.

Axially Symmetric Vibrations of a Liquid-Filled Poroelastic Thin Cylinder Saturated with Two Immiscible Liquids Surrounded by a Liquid

This paper studies axially symmetric vibrations of a liquid-filled poroelastic thin cylinder saturated with two immiscible liquids of infinite extent that is surrounded by an inviscid elastic liquid. By considering the stress free boundaries, the frequency equation is obtained. Particular case, namely, liquid-filled poroelastic cylinder saturated with single liquid is discussed.  When the waven...

Mechanism of drop coalescence at the interface of two immiscible liquids

Several processes involve two immiscible liquid phases with dispersed drops surrounded by a continuous phase. The drops coalesce for joining their mother phase. This phenomenon occurs in many industrial mixing, separation, as well as in environmental processes. This paper is focused on the problem of the coalescence of a single drop at the planar interface of two immiscible liquids. An original...

Mixing of the Immiscible Liquids in the Entrance Region of a T-Type Chamber Using Laser Induced Fluorescence (LIF) Method

A Laser Induced Fluorescence technique (LIF) has been used to study the mixing behavior of two emerging streams in a T-Type mixing chamber. A mixing index on the basis of digital image light intensities is calculated. It has been shown that averaging over more than 800 images leads to a stable mixing index calculation. Moreover, the effect of equal and un-equal flow rates on the mixing behavior...

Drop fragmentation at impact onto a bath of an immiscible liquid.

The impact of a drop onto a deep bath of an immiscible liquid is studied with emphasis on the drop fragmentation into a collection of noncoalescing daughter drops. At impact the drop flattens and spreads at the surface of the crater it transiently opens in the bath and reaches a maximum deformation, which gets larger with increasing impact velocity, before surface tension drives its recession. ...

Coalescence Between Adjacent Drops Lying on the Interface of Two Liquids

Some industrial processes, in their operations, involve the presence of two immiscible liquid phases. The dispersed drops are surrounded by a continuous phase. The drops tend to coalesce with adjacent drops or to join their mother phase separated by an interface. These kind of phenomena occur in many industrial operations as well as in environmental processes. The liquid-liquid foams behaviour ...
