An analytical solution is proposed to predict the crown propagation, generated by a single droplet impact on wetted walls. This approach enables a smooth transition from the inertia-driven to the viscous-controlled regime of crown propagation. The modelling strategy is based on the stagnation-point flow, because it resembles closely the hydrodynamic flow in the lamella and offers two main advantages. First, it allows a simple estimation of the wall-film thinning rate, caused by the impulse transfer from the impacting droplet to the wall film. Second, thanks to the self-similarity of the solution, it enables a straightforward estimation of momentum losses during film spreading along the wall. By incorporating this estimation into existing inviscid models, an excellent agreement with experiments is found during the entire crown elevation phase. In general, the analysis shows that momentum losses due to viscous effects cannot be neglected during a significant portion of crown propagation, particularly for thin wall films. The proposed methodology paves the way for predicting the inception of crown bottom breakup (CBB). In this case, the crown lamella disintegrates directly at its base due to the spontaneous creation of holes that create a web-like structure in the lamella prior to its break-up. Our theoretical analysis shows that this premature break-up of the crown lamella is associated to local instability effects, caused by the unbalance between inertial forces and surface tension.

This paper represents a theoretical and an experimental study of the spreading dynamics of a liquid droplet, generated by a needle free deposition system called the liquid needle droplet deposition technique. This technique utilizes a continuous liqu id jet generated from a pressurized dosing system which generates a liquid drop on a substrate to be characterized by optical contact angle measurements. Although many studies have explored the theoretical modelling of the droplet spreading scenario, a theoretical model representing the spreading dynamics of a droplet, generated by the jet impact and continuous addition of liquid mass, is yet to be addressed. In this study, we developed a theoretical model based on the overall energy balance approach which enables us to study on the physics of variation of droplet spreading under surrounding medium of various viscosities. The numerical solution of the non-linear ordinary differential equation has provided us the opportunity to comment on the variation of droplet spreading, as a function of Weber number ($We$), Reynolds number ($Re$) and Bond number ($Bo$) ranging from 0.5-3, 75-150, and 0.001-0.3, respectively. We have also presented a liquid jet impact model in order to predict the initial droplet diameter as an initial condition for the proposed governing equation. The model has been verified further with the experimental measurements and reasonable agreement has been observed. Experimental observations and theoretical investigations also highlight the precision, repeatability and wide range of the applicability of liquid needle drop deposition technique.
When a liquid drop impacts on a heated substrate, it can remain deposited, or violently boil in contact, or lift off with or without ever touching the surface. The latter is known as the Leidenfrost effect. The duration and area of the liquid--substr ate contact is highly relevant for the heat transfer, as well as other effects such as corrosion. However, most experimental studies rely on side view imaging to determine contact times, and those are often mixed with the time until the drop lifts off from the substrate. Here, we develop and validate a reliable method of contact time determination using high-speed X-ray and Total Internal Reflection measurements. We exemplarily compare contact and lift-off times on flat silicon and sapphire substrates. We show that drops can rebound even without formation of a complete vapor layer, with a wide range of lift-off times. On sapphire, we find a local minimum of lift-off times much shorter than by capillary rebound in the comparatively low-temperature regime of transition boiling / thermal atomization. We elucidate the underlying mechanism related to spontaneous rupture of the lamella and receding of the contact area.
Analytical solutions in fluid dynamics can be used to elucidate the physics of complex flows and to serve as test cases for numerical models. In this work, we present the analytical solution for the acoustic boundary layer that develops around a rigi d sphere executing small amplitude harmonic rectilinear motion in a compressible fluid. The mathematical framework that describes the primary flow is identical to that of wave propagation in linearly elastic solids, the difference being the appearance of complex instead of real valued wave numbers. The solution reverts to well-known classical solutions in special limits: the potential flow solution in the thin boundary layer limit, the oscillatory flat plate solution in the limit of large sphere radius and the Stokes flow solutions in the incompressible limit of infinite sound speed. As a companion analytical result, the steady second order acoustic streaming flow is obtained. This streaming flow is driven by the Reynolds stress tensor that arises from the axisymmetric first order primary flow around such a rigid sphere. These results are obtained with a linearization of the non-linear Navier-Stokes equations valid for small amplitude oscillations of the sphere. The streaming flow obeys a time-averaged Stokes equation with a body force given by the Nyborg model in which the above mentioned primary flow in a compressible Newtonian fluid is used to estimate the time-averaged body force. Numerical results are presented to explore different regimes of the complex transverse and longitudinal wave numbers that characterize the primary flow.
Cardiovascular diseases, specifically cerebral aneurysms, represent a major cause of morbidity and mortality, having a significant impact on the cost and overall status of health care. In the present work, we employ a haemorheological blood model ori ginally proposed by Owens to investigate the haemodynamics of blood flow through an aneurytic channel. This constitutive equation for whole human blood is derived using ideas drawn from temporary polymer network theory to model the aggregation and disaggregation of erythrocytes in normal human blood at different shear rates. To better understand the effect of rheological models on the haemodynamics of blood flow in cerebral aneurysms we compare our numerical results with those obtained with other rheological models such as the Carreau-Yasuda (C-Y) model. The results show that the velocity profiles for the Newtonian and the Owens models are approximately similar but differ from those of the C-Y model. In order to stabilize our numerical simulations, we propose two new stabilization techniques, the so-called N-Owens and I-Owens methods. Employing the N-Owens stabilization method enables us to capture the effect of erythrocyte aggregation in blood flow through a cerebral aneurysm at higher Weissenberg (We) and Reynolds (Re) numbers than would otherwise be possible.
A novel volume of fluid model (VoF) called explicit volume diffusion (EVD) is developed for the simulation of interfacial flows, including those with turbulence and primary spray atomisation. The EVD model is derived by volume averaging the VoF equat ions over a physically-defined length scale. This introduces unclosed sub-volume flux, sub-volume stress and volume averaged surface tension force. Sub-volume fluctuations arise due to both turbulent motions and other interface dynamics which can, in general, occur in both laminar and turbulent flows. Both of these types of fluctuations are attenuated by the volume averaging process. The sub-volume flux is closed by a gradient diffusion model and involves an explicit volume diffusion coefficient that is linked to the physical length scale. The sub-volume stress closure introduces an explicit volume viscosity augmented by turbulent viscosity in turbulent flows. The volume averaged surface tension force closure is based on fractal properties of wrinkled sub-volume interfaces. These closures are evaluated through a priori analysis of resolved flow simulations for a series of two-dimensional laminar and three-dimensional turbulent interfacial shear flows. Subsequently, full EVD simulations are validated for these shear flows and for a laboratory airblast spray jet. Numerical convergence is demonstrated by keeping the physical length scale constant while reducing the numerical grid size so that numerical diffusion diminishes and becomes overwhelmed by the explicit volume diffusion. A sensitivity analysis is also conducted for variations in the physical length scale, which is compared to the boundary layer thickness on the light fluid side of the interface.
