We report an experimental and numerical investigation of the fragmentation mechanisms of micrometer-sized metal droplet irradiated by ultrashort laser pulses. The results of the experiment show that the fast one-side heating of such a…
The collision kernel of droplets in warm clouds is a crucially important quantity for the parameterization of precipitation in weather and climate models. Nevertheless, its accurate representation remains a challenge, specifically in the…
Distributed combustion, often associated with the low-oxygen condition, offers ultra-low NOX emission. However, it was recently achieved without combustion air dilution or internal flue gas recirculation, using a distinct approach called…
The dynamics of flame propagation in systems with infinite Lewis number and spatially discretized sources of heat release is examined, which is applicable to the combustion of suspensions of fuel particles in air. The system is analyzed…
Dissipative particle dynamics (DPD) is a relatively new technique which has proved successful in the simulation of complex fluids. We caution that for the equilibrium achieved by the DPD simulation of a simple fluid the temperature depends…
The critical dimension necessary for a flame to propagate in suspensions of fuel particles in oxidizer is studied analytically and numerically. Two types of models are considered: First, a continuum model, wherein the individual particulate…
We study the time evolution of a sessile liquid droplet, which is initially put onto a solid surface in a non-equilibrium configuration and then evolves towards its equilibrium shape. We adapt here the standard approach to the dynamics of…
Injectors of cryogenic liquid rocket engines produce large polydisperse and dense sprays due to the pressure and mass flow conditions. Atomization is the dominating process that drives the flame behaviour in cryogenic jet flames, when the…
Numerical modeling of turbulent spray combustion provides a promising tool for advanced engine design. In spray flames, the droplet evaporation not only reduces the ambient gas temperature, but also influences flame structure by generating…
This work is devoted to a theoretical analysis of mass frequency response to pressure oscillations of a spray of repetitively injected drops into a combustion chamber. A single stationary spherical droplet continuously fed with the same…
Flash-boiling injection is one of the most effective ways to accomplish improved atomization compared to the high-pressure injection strategy. The tiny droplets formed via flash-boiling lead to fast fuel-air mixing and can subsequently…
We study some general properties of accretion disc variability in the context of stationary random processes. In particular, we are interested in mathematical constraints that can be imposed on the functional form of the Fourier…
A theoretical analysis is developed to investigate the effects of gas expansion due to heat release on unsteady diffusion flames evolving in a pipe flow in which the mixing of reactants is controlled by Taylor's dispersion processes thereby…
We simulate the dynamics of polydisperse hard spheres at high packing fractions, $\phi$, with an experimentally-realistic particle size distribution (PSD) and other commonly-used PSDs such as gaussian or top hat. We find that the mode of…
The diffusion of a pulse of small grains in an horizontal rotating drum is studied through discrete elements methods simulations. We present a theoretical analysis of the diffusion process in a one-dimensional confined space in order to…
We numerically study the dynamics of a polydisperse double emulsion under a symmetric shear flow. We show that both dispersity and shear rate crucially affect the behavior of the innermost drops and of the surrounding shell. While at…
We study turbulent channel flows of monodisperse and polydisperse suspensions of finite-size spheres by means of Direct Numerical Simulations using an immersed boundary method to account for the dispersed phase. Suspensions with 3 different…
We numerically study the dynamics and the phases of self-propelled disk-shaped particles of different sizes with soft repulsive potential in two dimensions. Size diversity is introduced by the polydispersity index (PDI) $\epsilon$, which is…
Eulerian-Lagrangian simulations are conducted for two-dimensional Rotating Detonative Combustion (RDC) fueled by bi-disperse n-heptane sprays without any fuel pre-vaporization. Parametric studies are performed to study the influences of…
Dynamics of spreading of small droplets on surfaces has been studied by the molecular dynamics method. Simulations have been performed for mixtures of solvent and dimer, and solvent and tetramer droplets. For solvent particles and dimers,…
