A conservative SPH method for surfactant dynamics
In this paper, a Lagrangian particle method is proposed for the simulation of multiphase flows with surfactant. The model is based on the multi-phase smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) framework of Hu and Adams [1]. Surfaceactive agents (surfactants) are incorporated into our method by a scalar quantity describing the local concentration of molecules in the bulk phase and on the interface. T...
متن کاملAn explicit Eulerian method for multiphase flow with contact line dynamics and insoluble surfactant
The flow behavior of many multiphase flow applications is greatly influenced by wetting properties and the presence of surfactants. We present a numerical method for two-phase flow with insoluble surfactants and contact line dynamics in two dimensions. The method is based on decomposing the interface between two fluids into segments, which are explicitly represented on a local Eulerian grid. It...
متن کاملA preconditioned solver for sharp resolution of multiphase flows at all Mach numbers
A preconditioned five-equation two-phase model coupled with an interface sharpening technique is introduced for simulation of a wide range of multiphase flows with both high and low Mach regimes. Harten-Lax-van Leer-Contact (HLLC) Riemann solver is implemented for solving the discretized equations while tangent of hyperbola for interface capturing (THINC) interface sharpening method is applied ...
متن کاملNumerical investigation of upward air-water annular, slug and bubbly flow regimes
In this paper, numerical investigation of upward two phase flow of air-water has been studied. Different conditions of flow regimes including annular, wispy annular, slug, churn and bubbly are simulated based on Hewitt and Roberts map, and a good agreement between the experimental data of the map and the numerical simulation has been observed. Accordingly, a proper CFD model in CFD software of ...
متن کاملSimulation of gas-liquid two phase flow in upriser pipe of gas-lift systems
Gas-lift pumps are devices for lifting liquid phase incorporating the gas phase to be injected in the bottom of liquid column. They are widely used in various industrial applications such as oil extracting in petroleum industries. Gas-liquid flow being the main part of the flow through these systems, flowing in vertical pipes of gas-lift pumps has different regimes namely bubbly, slug, chur...
