This paper presents a novel volume of fluid ghost-cell immersed boundary (IB) method for two-phase free surface flow interacting with structures. To circumvent the disturbance occurring around the intersection area of the IB and free…
We describe the implementation of a second-order accurate volume-of-fluid interface tracking algorithm in the open source finite element code ASPECT, which is designed to model convection in the Earth's mantle. This involves the solution of…
Heat exchangers are devices that typically transfer heat between two fluids. The performance of a heat exchanger such as heat transfer rate and pressure loss strongly depends on the flow regime in the heat transfer system. In this paper, we…
The Volume-of-Fluid (VoF) method for simulating incompressible two-phase flows is widespread in academic and commercial simulation software because of its many advantages: a high degree of volume conservation, applicability to unstructured…
A multiscale model of open-cell foams is developed for the characterization of heat exchangers. The model is applicable to a wide range of materials, cell sizes, and porosities. The microscopic geometry is based on a periodic model that is…
Determination of heat transfer coefficients for flowing packed particle beds is essential to the design of particle heat exchangers, and other thermal processes. While such dense granular flows fall into the well-known plug-flow regime, the…

We numerically investigate turbulent Rayleigh-B\'enard convection with gas bubbles attached to the hot plate, mimicking a core feature in electrolysis, catalysis, or boiling. The existence of bubbles on the plate reduces the global heat…
Boiling is a very efficient way to transfer heat from a heater to the liquid carrier. We discuss the boiling crisis, a transition between two regimes of boiling: nucleate and film boiling. The boiling crisis results in a sharp decrease in…
