Atomization and evaporation processes have extensively existed in a variety of scientific and
engineering applications, such as, rain formation, spray cooling, and spray combustion in …

Turbulent flows laden withlarge, deformable drops or bubbles are ubiquitous in nature and a
number of industrial processes. These flows are characterized by physics acting at many …

We present a numerical method for interface-resolved simulations of evaporating two-fluid
flows based on the volume-of-fluid (VoF) method. The method has been implemented in an …

Turbulent flows laden with large, deformable drops are ubiquitous in nature and in a wide
range of industrial processes. Prediction of the interactions between drops, which deform …

Droplets in turbulent flows behave differently from solid particles, eg droplets deform, break
up, coalesce and have internal fluid circulation. Our objective is to gain a fundamental …

In this work, we compute numerically breakage/coalescence rates and size distribution of
surfactant-laden droplets in turbulent flow. We use direct numerical simulation of turbulence …

We have developed a coupled level set and volume of fluid-based computational fluid
dynamics model to analyze the droplet formation mechanism in a square flow-focusing …

A complete knowledge of the effect of droplet viscosity on droplet-droplet collision outcomes
is essential for industrial processes such as spray drying. When droplets with dispersed …

Direct numerical simulations are performed to investigate the multiscale flow physics of
binary droplet collision over a wide range of Weber numbers and impact factors. All possible …

The off-center collision of binary equal-sized alumina droplets has been investigated by
employing a three-dimensional direct numerical simulation method which involves the …
