A dry deposition model suitable for use in the moment method has been developed. Contributions from five main processes driving the deposition - Brownian diffusion, interception, impaction, turbulent impaction, and sedimentation - are…
In the context of many applications of turbulent multi-phase flows, knowledge of the dispersed phase size distribution and its evolution is critical to predicting important macroscopic features. We use a population dynamics model for…
Evaporating droplets and films are used in applications from different fields. Various methods of evaporative self-assembly are of particular interest. The paper describes a mathematical model of mass transfer in a droplet drying on a…
A joint volume-surface formalism of the Multi-Moment Sectional Method (MMSM) is developed to describe the evolution of soot size distribution in turbulent reacting flows. The bivariate MMSM (or BMMSM) considers three statistical moments per…
Numerical simulations for flow and transport in subsurface porous media often prove computationally prohibitive due to property data availability at multiple spatial scales that can vary by orders of magnitude. A number of model order…
Our work is motivated by the analysis of ash plume dynamics, arising in the study of volcanic eruptions. Such phenomena are characterized by large Reynolds number (exceeding $10^7$) and a large number of polydispersed particles~[1]. Thus,…
We study the dispersion characteristics of slightly buoyant droplets in a turbulent jet using large eddy simulations (LES). The droplet number density fields are represented using an Eulerian approach with the dispersed phase modelled using…
We investigate three aspects of aerosol-mediated air-borne viral infection mechanisms on different length and time scales. First, we address the evolution of the size distribution of a non-interacting ensemble of droplets that are subject…
The realization that interfacial features play little role in diesel spray vaporization and advection has changed the modus operandi for spray modeling. Lagrangian particle tracking has typically been focused on droplet behavior, with…
We present a technique for entropy optimization to calculate a distribution from its moments. The technique is based upon maximizing a discretized form of the Shannon entropy functional by mapping the problem onto a dual space where an…
In the present work, a high order finite element type residual distribution scheme is designed in the framework of multidimensional compressible Euler equations of gas dynamics. The strengths of the proposed approximation rely on the…
Modeling of a dense spray regime using an Euler-Lagrange approach is challenging because of local high volume loading. A cluster of droplets, that are assumed subgrid, can lead to locally low void fractions for the fluid phase. Under these…
In this paper, we study numerical methods for the solution of partial differential equations on evolving surfaces. The evolving hypersurface in $\Bbb{R}^d$ defines a $d$-dimensional space-time manifold in the space-time continuum…
Observational data provided by JWST instruments continue to challenge theories and models of cloud formation in sub-stellar atmospheres, requiring more sophisticated approaches in an effort to understand their spatial complexity. However,…
This paper aims at presenting the DropletSMOKE++ solver, a comprehensive multidimensional computational framework for the evaporation of fuel droplets, under the influence of a gravity field and an external fluid flow. The Volume Of Fluid…
We study the liquid-vapor phase behaviour of a polydisperse fluid using grand canonical simulations and moment free energy calculations. The strongly nonlinear variation of the fractional volume of liquid across the coexistence region…
Over the past few decades, there has been substantial interest in evolution equations that involving a fractional-order derivative of order $\alpha\in(0,1)$ in time, due to their many successful applications in engineering, physics, biology…
We develop a phase-field model for evaporation from a porous medium by explicitly considering a vapor component together with the liquid and gas phases in the system. The phase-field model consists of the conservation of mass (for phases…
We propose a new unfitted finite element method for simulation of two-phase flows in presence of insoluble surfactant. The key features of the method are 1) discrete conservation of surfactant mass; 2) the possibility of having meshes that…
A hybrid sharp-interface immersed-boundary/front-tracking (IB/FT) method is developed for interface-resolved simulation of evaporating droplets in incompressible multiphase flows. A one-field formulation is used to solve the flow, species…
