A Multicomponent and Multiphase Model of Reactive Wetting
نویسندگان
چکیده
A diffuse-interface model of reactive wetting with intermetallic formation is presented. The model incorporates fluid flow, solute diffusion, and phase change that are based on the total molar Gibbs energy of a ternary system with four phases. Numerical simulations were performed successfully revealing the complex behavior of the reactive wetting process that include nucleation and growth of an intermetallic phase, and initial rapid spreading followed by a slow and progressive spreading. In addition, the nucleation and growth of the intermetallic phase is shown to be directly influenced by its kinetic coefficient or the interface energy associated with it.

Pore-scale mass and reactant transport in multiphase porous media flows
Reactive processes associated with multiphase flows play a significant role in mass transport in unsaturated porous media. For example, the effect of reactions on the solid matrix can affect the formation and stability of fingering instabilities associated with the invasion of a buoyant non-wetting fluid. In this study, we focus on the formation and stability of capillary channels of a buoyant ...
متن کاملApplication of the Genetic Algorithm to Calculate the Interaction Parameters for Multiphase and Multicomponent Systems
A method based on the Genetic Algorithm (GA) was developed to study the phase behavior of multicomponent and multiphase systems. Upon application of the GA to the thermodynamic models which are commonly used to study the VLE, VLLE and LLE phase equilibria, the physically meaningful values for the Binary Interaction Parameters (BIP) of the models were obtained. Using the method proposed in t...
متن کاملThe importance of multiphase and multicomponent modeling in consequence and risk analysis.
The ability to accurately predict the consequences of hazardous fluid release is dependent on three things: the knowledge of the modeler, the quality of the model that is used, and the quality of the input parameters. One of the most difficult problems in consequence modeling is the prediction of post-release multiphase behavior, especially when a multicomponent mixture is involved. Releases fr...

متن کاملReactive uptake kinetics of NO3 on multicomponent and multiphase organic mixtures containing unsaturated and saturated organics.
We investigated the reactive uptake of NO(3) (an important night-time oxidant in the atmosphere) on binary mixtures containing an unsaturated organic (methyl oleate) and saturated molecules (diethyl sebacate, dioctyl sebacate, and squalane) which we call matrix molecules. These studies were carried out to better understand the reactivity of unsaturated organics in multicomponent and multiphase ...
