We present some experimental and simulation results that reproduces the Ostwald ripening (gas diffusion among bubbles) for air bubbles in a liquid fluid. Concerning the experiment, there it is measured the time evolution of bubbles mean…
The ostwald ripening of bubbles is studied by molecular dynamics simulations involving up to 679 million Lennard-Jones particles. Many bubbles appear after depressurizing a system that is initially maintained in the pure-liquid phase, and…
Bubble solutions are of growing interest because of various technological applications in surface cleaning, water treatment, and agriculture. However, their physicochemical properties such as the stability and interfacial charge of bubbles…
Microbubble solutions have a wide range of industrial applications, including heat transfer, agriculture, and water treatment. Therefore, understanding and controlling the size variation of bubbles is critical. In this study, we develop a…
Underground gas storage is central to both climate mitigation and energy transition strategies, supporting both long-term carbon sequestration and seasonal hydrogen storage. A key mechanism governing the fate of injected gases is Ostwald…
Ostwald ripening is a well-known physicochemical phenomenon in which smaller particles, characterized by high surface energy, dissolve and feed the bigger ones that are thermodynamically more stable. The effect is commonly observed in solid…
This paper considers an Ostwald ripening process in which new droplets are injected at a constant rate, with a fixed distribution of radii, and in which droplets are removed when they grow to a specified maximum radius. This process…
Partially miscible bubble populations trapped in porous media are ubiquitous in subsurface applications such as underground hydrogen storage (UHS), where cyclic injections fragment gas into numerous bubbles with distributions of sizes and…
A central problem in cloud physics is understanding the kinetics of the growth of water droplets. It is believed that there exists a 'condensation-coalescence bottleneck' in the growth of intermediate size droplets. Here the Lifshitz-Slezov…
We present a time-dependent pore-network model that couples transient mass transfer in the aqueous phase, capillary pressure heterogeneity, and realistic pore-throat geometries to capture the dynamic evolution of gas clusters during Ostwald…
Phase separation of biomolecular condensates promotes membrane-free compartmentalization in cells. The dynamics of these biocondensates is routinely regulated by energy-consuming processes. Here, we devise a theory pinpointing how active…
Absence of Ostwald ripening has been observed in living cells, which operate out of equilibrium. Using molecular dynamics we study the behaviour of liquid droplets away from equilibrium in a system of particles interacting with each other…
Additives of sparingly soluble components are known to slow down or completely inhibit Ostwald ripening in dispersed systems. In this paper, our earlier model of stabilization against Ostwald ripening is revisited and extended. In a…
We present a systematic quasi-mean field model of the Ostwald ripening process in two dimensions. Our approach yields a set of dynamic equations for the temporal evolution of the minority phase droplets' radii. The equations contain only…
Understanding how multi-component liquid mixtures undergo phase separation is central to elucidating biophysical organization in the cell. Here, combining analytical and numerical results, we characterise the dynamics of mixtures with…
The ripening kinetics of bubbles is studied by performing molecular dynamics simulations. From the time evolution of a system, the growth rates of individual bubbles are determined. At low temperatures, the system exhibits a $t^{1/2}$ law…
Ostwald ripening in O/W emulsions in presence of solubilizing micelles is theoretically studied. At small average sizes, the kinetics is predicted to follow the classical Lifshits-Slezov-Wagner cubic law, with the rate proportional to the…
Within the framework of the LSW theory of Ostwald ripening the amount of volume of the second (solid) phase that is newly formed by recrystallization is investigated. It is shown, that in the late stage, the portion of the newly generated…
Bubbles play an important role in the transport of chemicals and nutrients in many natural and industrial flows. Their dispersion is crucial to understand the mixing processes in these flows. Here we report on the dispersion of millimetric…
In this chapter, the theory of Lifshitz, Slesov and Wagner and the technique of Emulsion Stability Simulations (ESS) are reviewed. Complementary algorithms required to incorporate the phenomenon of Ostwald ripening in ESS are presented. The…
