In an experimental investigation of the transient processes that occur when a single droplet of butane at the superheat limit vaporizes explosively, short-exposure photographs and fast-response pressure measurements have been used to construct a description of the complete explosion process. It is observed that only a single bubble forms within the drop during each explosion, and that the growt...

Purpose This paper aims to investigate the influence of smooth curvature distributions on self-noise a low Reynolds number aerofoil and unveil flow mechanisms in phenomenon. Design/methodology/approach In this paper, large Eddy simulation (LES) approach was performed unsteady aerodynamic performance both original E387 redesigned A7 time-dependent study boundary layer characteristics at 100,000 ...

this paper presents the results of numerical simulations of the laminar and turbulent flows inside diverging channels using random vortex methods (rvm). random vortex method is a mesh-free method which solves unsteady vorticity equation instead of solving navier-stokes equations directly to determine the velocity field. in this paper, the velocity potential, which is used as the initial conditi...

Film droplets formed from the bursting of 2.4 mm diameter bubbles on the surface of pure water are predominantly negatively charged. The charge generated per bubble varies chaotically; a few bubbles generate more than -3 × 10(6) elementary charges (e) but the vast majority generate much less. The average is -5 × 10(4)e/bubble, and it is not significantly affected by bubbling rate or temperature...
