A drop exposed to cross flow of air experiences sudden accelerations which deform it rapidly ultimately proceeding to disintegrate it into smaller fragments. In this work, we examine the breakup of a drop as a bag film with a bounding rim…
This work examines the breakup of a single drop of various low viscosity fluids as it deforms in the presence of continuous horizontal air jet. Such a fragmentation typically occurs after the bulk liquid has disintegrated upon exiting the…
Ejectors are passive devices used in refrigeration, propulsion, and process industries to compress a secondary stream without moving parts. The engineering modeling of choking in these devices remains an open question, with two…
We present a theoretical description of the fluid--structure interaction observed within a Starling resistor. The typical setup consists of a pre-stretched finite length thin-walled elastic tube mounted between two rigid tubes. The…
In this study, we investigate the behaviour of sedimenting solid particles and the influence of microscopic particle dynamics on the collective motion of a sedimenting cloud. Departing from conventional direct numerical simulations (DNS),…
Conventional fluid simulations can be time consuming and energy intensive. We researched the viability of a neural network for simulating incompressible fluids in a randomized obstacle-heavy environment, as an alternative to the numerical…
A semi-empirical model is developed in this paper to predict the broadband shock-associated noise (BBSAN) generated by shock-instability interaction (SII) in imperfectly expanded supersonic jets. The model makes use of a semi-empirically…
We present evidence of the hysteretic nature of dissipation in unsteady turbulent flows. Wind tunnel experiments and direct numerical simulations in oscillating flows show that, at fixed mean Reynolds number, the dissipation constant is…
We developed a method for significantly lowering the viscosity achievable for a hydrodynamic lattice gas method. The key advance is the derivation of a mirror state that allows for a reduction of viscosity by more than an order of magnitude…
We experimentally investigate the dynamics of inertial spheres settling through density-stratified interfaces, focusing on the conditions that lead to pronounced deceleration and ``bouncing''. Using synchronized particle tracking and flow…
In this article, we have developed a computational model to determine the droplet formation regime and its transition in a square microfluidic flow-focusing device that eventually dictate the droplet shape, size, and its formation…
Characterizing hydrodynamic transport in fractured rocks is essential for carbon storage and geothermal energy production. Multiscale heterogeneities lead to anomalous solute transport, with breakthrough-curve (BTC) tailing and nonlinear…
Large sea spray drops - of up to 2mm in diameter - constitute one of the most uncertain factors controlling the intensification of hurricanes and severe storms because their generation mechanisms are not understood. Wave splashing produces…
Micro/nanoporous membranes have been used extensively in biological and medical applications associated with filtration, particle sorting, cell separation, and real-time sensing. Expanding its applications to microfluidics offers several…
Turbulence holds immense importance across various scientific and engineering disciplines. The direct numerical simulation (DNS) of turbulence proposed by Orszag in 1970 is a milestone in fluid mechanics, which began an era of numerical…
This paper constitutes a step in the direction of developing integer lattice gas methods as an attractive alternative to lattice Boltzmann methods. Here we show that to Boltzmann limit the one dimensional Blommel integer lattice gas is very…
In this paper, a multiscale boundary condition for the discrete unified gas kinetic scheme (DUGKS) is developed for gas flows in all flow regimes. Based on the discrete Maxwell boundary condition (DMBC), this study addresses the limitations…
We present a geometric derivation of the quasi-geostrophic equations on the sphere, starting from the rotating shallow water equations. We utilise perturbation series methods in vorticity and divergence variables. The derivation employs…
We present an efficient neural-based approach to estimate the instantaneous flow field around an airfoil from limited surface pressure measurements. The model, denoted SNN-POD, relies on two independent shallow neural networks to predict…
Airway clearance by coughing is a key mechanism for mucus transport, particularly in obstructive lung diseases associated with altered mucus rheology. We investigate the dynamics of a viscoplastic liquid film driven by flow in a turbulent…
