We perform direct numerical simulations of a gas bubble dissolving in surrounding liquid. The volume is reduced due to dissolution the gas, with implementation an immersed boundary method, coupling diffusion and Navier–Stokes equations. methods are validated against planar spherical geometries’ analytical moving problems, including classic Epstein–Plesset problem. Considering rising quiescent liquid, we show that mass transfer coefficient $k_L$ can be described by Levich formula $k_L =...
We investigate drop break-up morphology, occurrence, time and size distribution, through large ensembles of high-fidelity direct-numerical simulations drops in homogeneous isotropic turbulence, spanning a wide range parameters terms the Weber number $We$ , viscosity ratio between carrier flow $\mu _r=\mu _d/\mu _l$ where d is diameter, Reynolds ( $Re$ ) number. For _r \leq 20$ we find nearly constant critical while it increases with _r$ (and when > transition can be described The delayed...
We study axisymmetric, free oscillations driven by gravity and surface tension at the interface of two viscous, immiscible, radially unbounded fluids, analytically numerically. The is perturbed as a zeroth-order Bessel function (in space) its evolution obtained time. In linearised approximation, we solve initial value problem (IVP) to obtain an analytic expression for time wave amplitude. It shown that mode temporally evolves in exactly same manner Fourier planar geometry. novel analytical...

Abstract
We perform linear stability analysis of an interface separating two immiscible, inviscid, quiescent fluids subject to a time-periodic body force. In generalised, orthogonal coordinate system, the time-dependent amplitude interfacial perturbations, in form standing waves, is shown be governed by generalised Mathieu equation. For zero forcing, equation reduces (generalised) simple harmonic oscillator The govern Faraday waves on four base states. use this demonstrate that and instabilities can...
We describe the rising trajectory of bubbles in isotropic turbulence and quantify slowdown mean rise velocity with sizes within inertial subrange. perform direct numerical simulations bubbles, for a wide range intensity, bubble inertia deformability, systematic comparison corresponding quiescent case, Reynolds number at Taylor microscale from 38 to 77. Turbulent fluctuations randomise cause reduction $\tilde {w}_b$ compared flow $w_b$ . The decrease {w}_b/w_b$ is shown be primarily function...
