High-Fidelity Simulations of Bubble, Droplet, and Spray Formation in Breaking Waves

چکیده
Plunging wave breaking is of great importance to ship hydrodynamics, including strong turbulence with large amounts of air entrainment, bubbles, droplets, jets, and spray. Previous experimental fluid dynamics (EFD) and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) studies on plunging wave breaking are mainly focused on the global structures of the wave breaking, such as wave elevation, jet, air cavity, and wave breaking process. Moreover, due to the technical difficulties, the experimental measurements usually can only be done in the water region, and detailed description of the energetic wave breaking region is not available. With the development of the CFD technology, detailed studies of the two-phase region become possible.

Study of Parameters Affecting Separation Bubble Size in High Speed Flows using k-ω Turbulence Model
Shock waves generated at different parts of vehicle interact with the boundary layer over the surface at high Mach flows. The adverse pressure gradient across strong shock wave causes the flow to separate and peak loads are generated at separation and reattachment points. The size of separation bubble in the shock boundary layer interaction flows depends on various parameters. Reynolds-averaged...
متن کاملSea spray spume droplet production in high wind speeds
[1] Sea spray droplets are known to enhance the fluxes of momentum, heat, and mass at the air-sea interface. Evaluating these fluxes depends in part on the so-called “spray generation function”, the size distribution of droplets generated. At high wind speeds, spray is empirically observed to be plentiful near the ocean surface, however, the generation function has remained elusive both theoret...
متن کاملEffect of Bubble/Droplet Morphology and Slippage on Attachment Induction Time in Deoiling Flotation Process
A modified model has been analytically developed to describe the induction time of an elliptic air bubble in contact with an elliptic hydrophobic oil droplet. The role of hydrophobicity was revealed in the slippage of liquid over the surfaces of bubble and droplet. In this condition, the analytical relationships for pressure distribution and consequently hydrodynamic resistance force through th...
متن کاملSharp Interface LES of Breaking Waves by an Interface Piercing Body in Orthogonal Curvilinear Coordinates
A sharp interface LES methodology on orthogonal curvilinear grid for breaking waves produced by an interface-piercing body at high Reynolds number is presented. Both gas and liquid phases are considered for the strong interactions between two phases, such as spray dispersion and bubble entrainment. The level-set based ghost fluid method is adopted for sharp interface treatment and a volume-of-f...
