in this paper, direct numerical simulation of two-phase incompressible gas-liquid flow for simulation of bubble motion in a microtube is presented. microtube radius is 10 µm. the interface is tracked using volume of fluid (vof) method with continuous surface force (csf) model. the flow is solved using a finite volume scheme, based on piso algorithm. numerical simulation is performed on a axisym...

this research includes both experimental and cfd investigation in the hydrodynamic behavior of a new type of column tray introduced as “concap” tray. the proposed column tray is used in contactor columns especially in stripping columns. the hydrodynamics of this concap tray is investigated in a 1.2m in diameter column. using air-water system, the experiments were performed for different liquid ...

A simple and efficient homogenous liquid-liquid extraction method performed in a narrow tube combined with dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction method has been presented for the simultaneous determination of two antiepileptic drugs in urine followed by gas chromatography with flame ionization detection. In this method, a mixture of acetonitrile and urine sample (homogenous solution) is load...

Although liquid/liquid and air/liquid interfaces are omnipresent, very little is known up to now about the dynamics of processes occurring at such interfaces. As a detailed understanding of these processes could be of invaluable technological, environmental, and medical importance, considerable effort has been invested over the last two decades in developing new interface-selective techniques t...

Process engineers can be faced with the task of understanding and optimizing the performance of an existing liquid-liquid extraction (extraction) column. Often times, an extraction column has been operating many years, and the performance is not well understood by the personnel responsible for its operation. Since this technology is not treated comprehensively during most under-graduate Chemica...

the modified nrtl (m-nrtl) model is used to represent the excess gibbs free energy of aqueous (alcohol + electrolyte) solutions. in this work, the m-nrtl model previously developed for representation of vapor-liquid equilibria for (polymer + salt + water) systems has been extended to represent liquid-liquid equilibria of (alcohol + salt + water) systems. the proposed extension is a modified of ...

An interfacial shear rheometer for stressand strain-controlled measurements at liquid interfaces is outlined. Experimental data are reported for the surfactant sorbitan tristearate on κ-carrageenan subphases. A setup combining interfacial rheometry with Brewster-angle Microscopy for realtime imaging of the interface is presented. INTRODUCTION Dynamic processes involving deformable fluid interfa...
