Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Falling Liquid Films gives a detailed review of state-of-the-art theoretical, analytical and numerical methodologies, for the analysis of dissipative wave dynamics and pattern formation on the surface of a film falling down a planar inclined substrate. This prototype is an open-flow hydrodynamic instability, that represents an excellent paradigm for the study of complexity in active nonlinear media with energy supply, dissipation and dispersion. It will also be of use for a more general understanding of specific events characterizing the transition to spatio-temporal chaos and weak/dissipative turbulence. Particular emphasis is given to low-dimensional approximations for such flows through a hierarchy of modeling approaches, including equations of the boundary-layer type, averaged formulations based on weighted residuals approaches and long-wave expansions. Whenever possible the link between theory and experiment is illustrated, and, as a further bridge between the two, the development of order-of-magnitude estimates and scaling arguments is used to facilitate the understanding of basic, underlying physics. This monograph will appeal to advanced graduate students in applied mathematics, science or engineering undertaking research on interfacial fluid mechanics or studying fluid mechanics as part of their program. It will also be of use to researchers working on both applied, fundamental theoretical and experimental aspects of thin film flows, as well as engineers and technologists dealing with processes involving isothermal or heated films. This monograph is largely self-contained and no background on interfacial fluid mechanics is assumed.

Book excerpt: Interdisciplinary and Advanced Topics in Science and Engineering, Volume 3: Separation of Flow presents the problem of the separation of fluid flow. This book provides information covering the fields of basic physical processes, analyses, and experiments concerning flow separation. Organized into 12 chapters, this volume begins with an overview of the flow separation on the body surface as discusses in various classical examples. This text then examines the analytical and experimental results of the laminar boundary layer of steady, two-dimensional flows in the subsonic speed range. Other chapters consider the study of flow separation on the two-dimensional body, flow separation on three-dimensional body shape and particularly on bodies of revolution. This book discusses as well the analytical solutions of the unsteady flow separation. The final chapter deals with the purpose of separation flow control to raise efficiency or to enhance the performance of vehicles and fluid machineries involving various engineering applications. This book is a valuable resource for engineers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The separation of shear-driven liquid films occurs in many engineering applications such as port fuel injected engines, demisters, and gas transfer lines. Despite the importance of this problem, the details of the interaction between operating parameters such as liquid flow rate, gas velocities and liquid film properties on the forces at the expanding corner are still not clear. To enhance the insight on the complicated interaction between the gas and liquid phases, the shear-driven liquid flow around a corner has been studied both experimentally and analytically in this work. The effect of the complex liquid film structure on liquid mass separation is significant. For some operating conditions the liquid film can be modeled as a smooth layer, which drives the liquid mass separation due to its inertia. However, for some other gas-liquid flow conditions, the formation of large amplitude waves at the interface also contributes to liquid mass separation at the corner. The focus of this study was to enhance the understanding of the effect of both mean film inertia and large amplitude waves on the mass separation mechanism. To develop a physical understanding of the effect of liquid film properties on both mean film inertia and large amplitude wave formation and growth, experimental studies on liquids with different viscosities and surface tensions have been performed in this work. It is shown that the interaction between the gas and liquid phase transfer controls the inertial force of the liquid film as well as wave propagation. Two distinct correlations based on this physical insight have been proposed for liquid mass separation based on dividing the shear-driven flow regimes into flow regimes without large amplitude waves and flow regimes with large amplitude waves"--Abstract, page iv.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The flows of thin film form the core of a large number of scientific, technological, and engineering applications. The occurrence of such flows can be observed in nature, for example on the windshield of vehicles in rainy weather. Thin film flows are also found in various engineering, geophysical, and biophysical ap- plications. Specific examples are nanofluidics, microfluidics, coating flows, intensive processing, tear-film rupture, lava flows, and dynamics of continental ice sheets. Important industrial applications of thin films include nuclear fusion research - for cooling the chamber walls surrounding the plasma, complex coating flows - where a thin film adheres to a moving substrate, distillation units, condensers, and heat exchangers, microfluidics, geophysical settings, such as gravity currents, mud, granular and debris flows, snow avalanches, ice sheet models, lava flows, biological and biophysical scenarios, such as flexible tubes, tear-film flows and many more. The dynamics of such films are quite complex and display rich behavior and this attracted many mathematicians, physicists, and engineers to the field. In the past three decades, the work in the area has progressed a lot with considerable stress on revealing the stability and dynamics of the film where the flow is driven by various forces such as gravity, capillarity, thermocapillarity, centrifugation, and inter- molecular. The flow may happen over structured or smooth and impermeable or slippery surfaces. The investigation approaches include modeling and analytical work, numerical simulations, and performing experiments to explain the instabilities that the film can exhibit. Direct analysis of the equations of the model of the interfacial flows is a very complicated mathematical exercise due to the existence of a free, evolving interface that bounds the liquid film. The mathematical complexity emerges from a number of things: (a) The Navier-Stokes (or Stokes or Euler) equations need to be solved in changing domains; (b) In certain applications one has to solve for the temperature or electrostatic or electromagnetic fields apart from the fluid equations; (c) Several nonlinear boundary conditions should be specified at the unknown interface(s) and (d) The solutions may not exist for all times. In fact in thin film problems, one may encounter finite-time singularities accompanied by topological transitions. The breakup of liquid jets is an example of that. However, in the subsequent chapters, we shall see that it is possible to use the different length scales appearing in thin film flows to our advantage. Thin films are characterized by much smaller length scales in the vertical direction as compared to those in the stream-wise direction. This gives rise to a small aspect ratio which makes the problem amenable for small amplitude perturbation expansions.

Download or read book Computational Modeling of Falling Liquid Film Free Surface Evaporation written by Emmanuel O. Doro and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A computational model is developed to investigate fundamental flow physics and transport phenomena of evaporating wavy-laminar falling liquid films of water and black liquor. The computational model is formulated from first principles based on the conservation laws for mass, momentum, energy and species in addition to a phase transport equation for capturing interface deformation and evolution. Free surface waves are generated by monochromatic perturbation of velocity. Continuum models for interfacial evaporation define source terms for liquid vaporization and species enrichment in the conservation laws. A phenomenological crystallization model is derived to account for species depletion due to salt precipitation during black liquor falling film evaporation. Using highly resolved numerical grids on parallel computers, the computational model is implemented to analyze the dynamics of capillary separation eddies in low Reynolds number falling films, investigate the dominant mechanisms of heat transfer enhancement in falling films at moderately high Reynolds numbers and study the fundamental wave structures and wave induced transport in black liquor falling films on flat and cylindrical walls. From simulation results, a theory based on the dynamics of wavefront streamwise pressure gradient is proposed to explain interfacial waves interaction that give rise to multiple backflow regions in films dominated by solitary-capillary waves. The study shows that the mechanism of heat transfer enhancement in moderately high Reynolds number films follows from relatively lower conduction thermal resistance and higher crosswise convective transport at newly formed intermediate wavefronts. Interfacial phenomena such as wave-breaking and vapor entrainment observed in black liquor falling films is explained in terms of a mechanistic theory based on evolution of secondary instabilities and large amplitude wave force imbalances.
