High speed microfluidic jets can be generated by a thermocavitation process: from the evaporation of the liquid inside a microfluidic channel, a rapidly expanding bubble is formed and generates a jet through a flow focusing effect. Here, we…
A cavity hollowed out on a free liquid surface is relaxing, forming an intense liquid jet. Using a model experiment where a short air pulse sculpts an initial large crater, we depict the different stages in the gravitational cavity collapse…
A liquid drop impacting a smooth solid substrate splashes by emitting a thin liquid sheet from near the contact line of the spreading liquid. This sheet is lifted from the substrate and ultimately breaks apart. Surprisingly, the splash is…
The positions, diameters ($d\geq 100$ $\mu$m), times and velocities of droplets generated by three plunging breaking waves are measured as the droplets move up across a measurement plane located 1.2 cm above the highest point reached by the…
Observational evidence from local star-forming regions mandates that star formation occurs shortly after, or even during, molecular cloud formation. Models of the formation of molecular clouds in large-scale converging flows have identified…
The transient process accompanied by extreme acceleration in the conical sections of hydraulic systems (e.g., draft tube, diffuser) can induce large cavitation bubbles both at the closed ends and in the bulk liquid. The collapses of the…
We show visualizations of the gravity-induced jets formed by spherical bubbles collapsing in liquids subjected to normal gravity, micro-gravity, and hyper-gravity. These observations demonstrate that gravity can have a significant effect on…
Bouncing jets are fascinating phenomenons occurring under certain conditions when a jet impinges on a free surface. This effect is observed when the fluid is Newtonian and the jet falls in a bath undergoing a solid motion. It occurs also…
Soft surfaces impacted by liquid droplets trap more air underneath than their rigid counterpart. The extended lifetime of the air film not only facilitates bouncing behaviours of the impacting droplets but also increases the possibility of…
We investigate the phenomenon of air entrainment in turbulent water jets exiting a pool near the free surface. Our experimental results reveal that bubble entrainment occurs only within a specific region close to the point where the jet…
A brief survey is given of the dynamical phenomena accompanying the collapse of cavitation bubbles. The discussion includes shock waves, microjets and the various ways in which collapsing bubbles produce damage.
The impact of a collapsing gas bubble above rigid, notched walls is considered. Such surface crevices and imperfections often function as bubble nucleation sites, and thus have a direct relation to cavitation-induced erosion and damage…
A jet of water entering into a pool of the same liquid can generate air entrainment and form bubbles that rapidly raise to the surface and disintegrate. Here we report the equivalent phenomenon produced by a plunging dry granular jet, so…
In this work, we present experiments and simulations on the nucleation and successive dynamics of laser-induced bubbles inside liquid droplets in free-fall motion, i.e. a case with a free boundary in all directions. The droplets of a…
A gas bubble sitting at a liquid-gas interface can burst following the rupture of the thin liquid film separating it from the ambient, owing to the large surface energy of the resultant cavity. This bursting bubble forms capillary waves, a…
Droplet evaporation in turbulent sprays involves unsteady, multiscale and multiphase processes which make its comprehension and model capabilities still limited. The present work aims to investigate droplet vaporization dynamics within a…
When a liquid jet plunges into a pool, it can generate a bubble-laden jet flow underneath the surface. This common and simple phenomenon is investigated experimentally for circular jets to illustrate and quantify the role played by the net…
A vapor bubble collapsing near a solid boundary in a liquid produces a liquid jet that points toward the boundary. The direction of this jet has been studied for boundaries such as flat planes and parallel walls enclosing a channel.…
Single free-falling freshwater drops were generated with no initial velocity by hypodermic needles, at an altitude of 3.61 m above a still freshwater surface. High resolution high speed videos (0.13 mm/pixel, 500 frames/second) of the…
Collisions between a stream of drops and a continuous jet of a different liquid are experimentally investigated. In contrast to previous studies, our work focuses on the effects of liquid miscibility and wettability on the collision…
