We study the effect of droplet coalescence on turbulent wall-bounded flows by means of direct numerical simulations. In particular, the volume-of-fluid and front-tracking methods are …
Three dimensional interface-resolved numerical simulations are performed to investigate interactions of two buoyancy-driven parallel bubbles rising in an otherwise quiescent …
Recently, our direct numerical simulations [Yuan et al.,“Hydrodynamic interaction and coalescence of two inline bubbles rising in a viscoelastic liquid,” Phys. Fluids 33, 083102 …

In this study, numerical simulations of bubbly flows in an infinitely long vertical channel were performed. Generally, the upper and lower boundaries of such channels are simplified as …
Cross-stream migration of a deformable fluid particle is investigated computationally in a pressure-driven channel flow of a viscoelastic fluid via interface-resolved simulations. Flow …

We present a multi-block finite-difference solver for massively parallel Direct Numerical Simulations (DNS) of incompressible flows. The algorithm combines the versatility of a multi …
We perform direct numerical simulations of surfactant-laden droplets in homogeneous isotropic turbulence with Taylor Reynolds number is the droplet characteristic size. We …
A proven methodology to solve multiphase flows is based on the one-fluid formulation of the governing equations, which treats the phase transition across the interface as a single fluid …
