Journal ArticleDOI
Drop impact onto a dry surface: Role of the dynamic contact angle
TL;DR: In this article, a two-dimensional axisymmetric volume-of-fluid (VOF) model was used to simulate the spreading of drops impacting a dry solid surface at low Weber numbers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Consistent mass and momentum transport for simulating incompressible interfacial flows with large density ratios using the level set method
Mehdi Raessi,Heinz Pitsch +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors introduce a consistent mass and momentum transport method which allows for simulations of interfacial flows with large density ratios in the context of the level set method, which is stable and accurate even at extreme density ratios.
Journal ArticleDOI
A computational framework for the analysis of rain-induced erosion in wind turbine blades, part I: Stochastic rain texture model and drop impact simulations
TL;DR: In this article, a stochastic rain texture model is developed to generate three-dimensional fields of raindrops consistent with the rainfall history at the turbine location by integrating the micro-structural properties of rain.
Journal ArticleDOI
Advecting normal vectors: A new method for calculating interface normals and curvatures when modeling two-phase flows
TL;DR: In simulating two-phase flows, interface normal vectors and curvatures are needed for modeling surface tension and a new method for calculating these quantities is presented, where the interface unit normals are advected along with whatever function represents the interface, and curvature are calculated directly from these adveCTed normals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Computational simulation of the interactions between moving rigid bodies and incompressible two-fluid flows
TL;DR: In this article, a two-dimensional computational flow solver for simulation of two-way interactions between moving rigid bodies and two-fluid flows is presented, where the fluids are assumed to be incompressible and immiscible.
