Viscoelastic Worthington jets\& droplets produced by bursting bubbles

AK Dixit, A Oratis, K Zinelis, D Lohse… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2024 - arxiv.org
Bubble bursting and subsequent collapse of the open cavity at free surfaces of contaminated
liquids can generate aerosol droplets, facilitating pathogen transport. After film rupture …

[HTML][HTML] The log-conformation formulation for single-and multi-phase axisymmetric viscoelastic flows

W Doherty, TN Phillips, Z Xie - Journal of Computational Physics, 2024 - Elsevier
A computational model for predicting axisymmetric single-and multi-phase viscoelastic flows
based on the log-conformation formulation of the constitutive equation is presented. The …

The spread of a viscoelastic circular jet and hydraulic jump

A Baayoun, RE Khayat - The European Physical Journal Special Topics, 2024 - Springer
We examine theoretically the spread of a jet impacting on a circular disk and the hydraulic
jump of a viscoelastic fluid of the Oldroyd-B type. The depth-averaging approach is …

Transition to elasto-capillary thinning dynamics in viscoelastic jets

K Zinelis, T Abadie, GH McKinley, OK Matar - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2023 - arxiv.org
We perform simulations of an impulsively-started, axisymmetric viscoelastic jet exiting a
nozzle and entering a stagnant gas phase using the open-source code Basilisk. This code …

Flow regimes of a single pulse of inelastic and elastic liquids from a round capillary tube

P Torres, CP Fonte - Chemical Engineering Science, 2022 - Elsevier
The ejection of liquids through round nozzles is a commonplace process in many industrial
applications, from inkjet printing to bottling of consumer products. In this work, a …

Effect of initial conditions on promotion and inhibition of breakup during filament contraction

X Liu, BW Wagoner, H Wee, OA Basaran - AIChE Journal, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
Liquid filaments surrounded by a gas arise in nature and applications. As filaments contract,
they either retract into spheres or disintegrate to form numerous droplets. In most previous …

A phase diagram of the pinch-off-type behavior of impulsively-induced viscoelastic liquid jets

A Hosokawa, K Kamamoto, H Watanabe… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2023 - arxiv.org
In this study, we systematically investigate the jet behaviors of viscoelastic liquids, focusing
on the region of high velocity and high viscoelasticity, which has not been investigated in …
