Viscous fingering is a commonly observed interfacial instability during fluid displacement, where fingerlike shape formed at the interface when more viscous displaced by less fluid. In this study, hybrid numerical model based on lattice Boltzmann method and finite difference developed for investigating control of leaky dielectric fluids confined in channel using electrohydrodynamics. Extensive ...

The current socio-economic shift towards electrification of the transport sector and development hybrid thermal-electric propulsion systems provides new opportunities for ‘clean’ aviation technologies. In this work, use electrostatic fields to control location electrically charged fuel droplets is proposed as a novel technology enhance pre-evaporation liquid sprays in confined spaces. An electr...
