Puffing of a decane/ethanol emulsion droplet and a droplet group under convective heating and its effects on fuel/air mixing are investigated by direct numerical simulation that resolves all of the liquid/gas and liquid/liquid interfaces. With distinct differences in the boiling point between decane and ethanol, the embedded ethanol sub-droplets can be superheated and boil explosively. Puffing, i.e. ejection of ethanol vapour, occurs from inside the parent decane droplet, causing secondary breakup of the droplet. The ejected ethanol vapour mixes with the outer gas mixture composed of air and v

The flow rates of the two jets were adjusted such that they had equal axial momentum. Irrespective of the system pressure, we distinguished two characteristic regimes: the lower flow-rate regime, in which the jet impingement formed a regularly shaped planar sheet, and a higher flow-rate regime, in which a wrinkled sheet repea

Abstract. The fraction of aerosol particles activated to droplets (CCN) is often derived from semi-empirical relationships that commonly tend to overestimate droplet number concentration leading to major uncertainties in global climate models. One of the difficulties in relating aerosol concentration to cloud microphysics and cloud albedo lies in the necessity of working at a constant liquid water path (LWP), which is very difficult to control. In this study we observed the relationships between aerosol number concentration (NCN), cloud droplet concentration (Nd) and effective radius (Reff), a

Abstract:
Abstract Microscale liquid droplets could act as the SARS carriers in air when released from an infected person through breathing, coughing, or sneezing. In this study, a dynamic model has been built to quantitatively investigate the effect of the relative humidity on the transport of liquid droplets in air using coupled mass transfer and momentum equations. Under higher relative humidity, the exhaled liquid droplets evaporate slowly. Larger droplets fall faster, which could reduce the probability of the droplets inhalation. This may be one of the most important factors that influence the SARS

Abstract:
The effects of a gentle forced air convection on the internal dynamics of an array of multiple pinned sessile salt solution droplets are investigated via fully-coupled transient ALE finite element analysis. Results highlight the competition between the shear-induced circulation within the droplets and the gravity-driven flow in the droplets arising from increasing liquid density in regions of high water evaporation. At low air speeds, gravity effects dominate, resulting in a non-uniform concentration distribution. However, at higher speeds the shear-induced circulation within the droplets beco

The dynamic behavior of compound droplets, which are made up of a millimeter-sized particle and distilled water, impacting substrates of different wettabilities is investigated via high-speed photography. The effects of the size of the particle within the compound droplet, substrate contact angle, and impact height on the deformation of the droplets and the characteristics of the impact are analyzed. It is found that the collisions of compound droplets with substrates can be classified into four categories based on the observed experimental phenomena that occur during the impact. These categor

Liquid dispersion on a wire mesh is a phenomenon that is utilized in many industrial applications, such as rotating packed beds. It is a very simple method of liquid atomization without a need for complex nozzles. This research focuses on an elementary case of a liquid dispersion on a crossing of two wires. Experiments were carried out in a wind tunnel to elucidate the influence of counterflow air velocity on a liquid sheet and droplets. High-speed camera was used to capture the impact of droplets on the crossing. Images were then processed using MATLAB® addon PIVlab. The effect of the input p

Abstract. For more than 20 years, air-induction or air-inclusion (AI) nozzles have had increased use for pesticide application due to their drift reduction capabilities. The pressure drop created by the pre-orifice and the venturi chamber results in a slower-moving liquid sheet exiting the main orifice, which in turn results in larger droplet sizes, which are less prone to drift. However, two additional factors somewhat mitigate the advantage of larger droplets from AI nozzles: the lower initial spray jet momentum from AI nozzles (compared to standard nozzles of the same flow rating at the sam

Natural and man-made robotic systems use the interfacial tension between two fluids to support dense objects on liquid surfaces. Here, we show that coacervate-encased droplets of an aqueous polymer solution can be hung from the surface of a less dense aqueous polymer solution using surface tension. The forces acting on and the shapes of the hanging droplets can be controlled. Sacs with homogeneous and heterogeneous surfaces are hung from the surface and, by capillary forces, form well-ordered arrays.

Simultaneous measurements of droplet sizes and velocities are made by phase-Doppler technique and numerical simulations are carried out based on the transient Eulerian equations for the gas and the Lagrangian equation for the droplets, taking account of the liquid sheet formed at the atomizer orifice. It is shown that the simulation gives good predictions by incorporating the existence of the liquid sheet. T

Abstract This article presents the theoretical background for the justification of the parameters of the rotating sprayer. Theoretical studies show that an increase in the rotation frequency of the disk at a constant air flow velocity leads to a minimum median mass diameter of the droplets. Therefore, when justifying the diameter of the sprayed droplets, it is necessary to consider the combination of the disk rotation speed and the axial velocity of the air flow. To obtain high-quality air-droplet flow, the initial speed of the main droplets discharged from the periphery of the spray disc shou
