Aim of the present study was to investigate the impact of atomization and drying on the functionality of emulsions with an oil/water-interface (o/w-interface) consisting of beta-lactoglobulin (single layer emulsion) and sequentially adsorbed pectins with varying degree of methylation at pH<pI (bilayer emulsions). Thus, the emulsion systems were characterized with respect to their behavior durin...

Recent experimental investigations and physical modeling studies have indicated that turbulence behaviors within a liquid jet have considerable effects on the atomization process. For certain flow regimes, it has been observed that the liquid jet surface is highly turbulent. This turbulence characteristic plays a key role on the breakup of the liquid jet near to the injector exit. Other experim...

Surface acoustic wave (SAW) atomization is an attractive approach for generating monodispersed microdroplets for a diversity of applications, from drug delivery to mass spectrometry, due to its reliability, miniaturizability, and portability. Here, we demonstrate a nozzleless spray cooling technique based on SAW atomization, with the key advantage of downward scalability: increasing the operati...

There are two important aspects to good injector performance in rocket engines—the atomization performance (droplet size and distribution, for example) and uniformity of operation (even distribution of droplets in time and space). In general, both of these aspects are affected by the geometry and operating conditions of the injector. In studying atomization performance, prior work has largely f...

This paper presents numerical simulation results of the primary atomization of a turbulent liquid jet injected into a gaseous crossflow. Simulations are performed using the balanced force refined level set grid method. The phase interface during the initial breakup phase is tracked by a level set method on a separate refined grid. A balanced force finite volume algorithm together with an interf...

Atomization involves complex physical processes and interaction gas-liquid. Primary atomization on Diesel spray is not well understood due to the difficulties to perform experimental measurements in the near nozzle field. Hence computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has been used as a key element to understand and improve Diesel spray. A recently new code for incompressible multiphase flow with ada...

Spray atomization is a common process found in different industries, where sprays under high injection pressure are widely recorded in the literature. Nonetheless, research on spray breakup mechanism under low pressure in pharmaceutical industry is still relatively rare. Numerical model in the Lagrangian approach was modified for simulating the spray formation from a nasal spray device in the c...

This communication reports on the novel work of creating a transistor channel based on functionalized single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) via electrostatic atomization deposition. The current method of drop-cast though convenient was unable to produce replicable transistor device due to its inherent inability in controlling the volume of liquid being drop-cast. Hence, this method of electros...
