Effects of Surface Rheology in Free Surface FlowsHansol Wee (14527112) 08 February 2023 (has links)
<p> </p>
<p>Interfaces separating two fluids are incredibly complex physical structures and are common throughout science, technology, and nature. Examples from daily life include the air-water interface separating a water drop that is dripping from a leaky faucet from the surrounding air and the interface of a soap bubble (which actually consists of two interfaces) separating the interior of the bubble from its exterior. Other common examples from nature include interfaces between falling rain drops and the surrounding air, and the mist that one encounters at beaches, waterfalls, and fountains where the spray droplets are separated from the surrounding air by an interface. Interfaces and manipulating them are key to technological applications such as thin film coating flows and diverse processes involving drop-by-drop processing such as ink-jet printing, drop-wise manufacturing, spray coating, DNA microarraying, and chemical separations, e.g. extraction. Aside from the coating flows example, the aforementioned situations are all examples of free surface flows that involve abrupt and catastrophic topological changes of interfaces that include physical processes such as breakup (also called pinch-off) as in drop breakup, rupture as in liquid-film or liquid-sheet rupture, and coalescence as in drop or bubble coalescence (similar phenomena also arise in sintering and/or fusion of ceramic, metallic, and polymer particles). These topological changes entail what are referred to as finite-time hydrodynamic singularities. For example, at the location(s) where a drop breaks, the thickness of the drop locally tends to zero while fluid pressure and velocity diverge (hence the reason for the word singularity). In addition to hydrodynamic singularities, the presence of surface-active agents or surfactants at fluid interfaces in free surface flows is another reason scientists have been attracted to the study of such problems.</p>
<p>Adsorption onto and lowering of the surface tension of a fluid interface by surfactants are exploited in applications such as enhanced oil recovery, coating flows, lung surfactants, drop/jet breakup, and film/sheet rupture, with the latter two being among the prime motivators for this PhD thesis. However, surfactant concentration can be nonuniform at the interface because surfactant molecules can be transported along it by convection and diffusion and also due to normal dilatation and tangential stretching of the interface. Thus, aside from simply lowering surface tension, nonuniformity in surfactant concentration causes gradients in surface tension and gives rise to tangential interfacial (Marangoni) stresses. The latter brings about rich physics including tears of wine, interfacial turbulence in mass transfer, and droplet bouncing. In addition to lowering surface tension and the Marangoni effect, surfactants may also induce surface rheological or viscous effects as surfactant molecules deform against each other. The primary goal of this thesis is to advance the understanding of surface rheological effects in situations involving the breakup of surfactant-covered liquid threads (which also includes jets and drops) and liquid sheets. The fundamental understanding developed in this thesis is likely to prove indispensable in and/or assist the development of new technologies where surface rheological effects are central to the processes at hand, e.g. in controlling drop size distributions and avoiding undesirable satellite droplets and/or misting. An initially unexpected but highly rewarding outcome of the research has been the development of techniques for the measurement of surface viscosities, a task that has heretofore proven to be a formidable challenge to experimentalists.</p>
<p>In this thesis, surface rheological effects in free surface flows are examined through both analytical and numerical solution of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations subjected to the traction boundary condition augmented by the Boussinesq-Scriven constitutive equation to account for surface viscous effects. Rigorous and robust numerical algorithms based on the Galerkin finite element (GFEM) method are developed for predictions of surfactant transport, surface rheological effects and hydrodynamics in response to the motion of moving boundaries. The accuracy of computational predictions is verified by demonstrating that computed results accord well with scaling theories.</p>

Exponential asymptotics and free-surface flowsTrinh, Philippe H. January 2010 (has links)
When traditional linearised theory is used to study free-surface flows past a surface-piercing object or over an obstruction in a stream, the geometry of the object is usually lost, having been assumed small in one or several of its dimensions. In order to preserve the nonlinear nature of the geometry, asymptotic expansions in the low-Froude or low-Bond limits can be derived, but here, the solution invariably predicts a waveless free-surface at every order. This is because the waves are in fact, exponentially small, and thus beyond-all-orders of regular asymptotics; their formation is a consequence of the divergence of the asymptotic series and the associated Stokes Phenomenon. In this thesis, we will apply exponential asymptotics to the study of two new problems involving nonlinear geometries. In the first, we examine the case of free-surface flow over a step including the effects of both gravity and surface tension. Here, we shall see that the availability of multiple singularities in the geometry, coupled with the interplay of gravitational and cohesive effects, leads to the discovery of a remarkable new set of solutions. In the second problem, we study the waves produced by bluff-bodied ships in low-Froude flows. We will derive the analytical form of the exponentially small waves for a wide range of hull geometries, including single-cornered and multi-cornered ships, and then provide comparisons with numerical computations. A particularly significant result is our confirmation of the thirty-year old conjecture by Vanden-Broeck & Tuck (1977) regarding the impossibility of waveless single-cornered ships.

Numerical simulation of depth-averaged flows models : a class of Finite Volume and discontinuous Galerkin approaches / Simulation numérique de modèles d'écoulement type "depth averaged" : une classe de schémas Volumes Finis et Galerkin discontinuDuran, Arnaud 17 October 2014 (has links)
Ce travail est consacré au développement de schémas numériques pour approcher les solutions de modèles d'écoulement type “depth averaged”. Dans un premier temps, nous détaillons la construction d'approches Volumes Finis pour le système Shallow Water avec termes sources sur maillages non structurés. En se basant sur une reformulation appropriée des équations, nous mettons en place un schéma équilibré et préservant la positivité de la hauteur d'eau, et suggérons des extensions MUSCL adaptées. La méthode est capable de gérer des topographies irrégulières et exhibe de fortes propriétés de stabilité. L'inclusion des termes de friction fait l'objet d'une analyse poussée, aboutissant à l'établissement d'une propriété type “Asymptotic Preserving” à travers l'amélioration d'un autre récent schéma Volumes Finis. La seconde composante de cette étude concerne les méthodes Elements Finis type Galerkin discontinu. Certaines des idées avancées dans le contexte Volumes Finis sont employées pour aborder le système Shallow Water surmaillages triangulaires. Des résultats numériques sont exposés et la méthode se révèle bien adaptée à la description d'une large variété d'écoulements. Partant de ces observations nous proposons finalement d'exploiter ces caractéristiques pour étendre l'approche à une nouvelle famille d'équations type Green-Nadghi. Des validations numériques sont également proposées pour valider le modèle numérique. / This work is devoted to the development of numerical schemes to approximatesolutions of depth averaged flow models. We first detail the construction of Finite Volume approaches for the Shallow Water system with source terms on unstructured meshes. Based on a suitable reformulation of the equations, we implement a well-balanced and positive preserving approach, and suggest adapted MUSCL extensions. The method is shown to handle irregular topography variations and demonstrates strong stabilities properties. The inclusion of friction terms is subject to a thorough analysis, leading to the establishment of some Asymptotic Preserving property through the enhancement of another recent Finite Volume scheme.The second aspect of this study concerns discontinuous Galerkin Finite Elementmethods. Some of the ideas advanced in the Finite Volume context areemployed to broach the Shallow Water system on triangular meshes. Numericalresults are exposed and the method turns out to be well suited to describe a large variety of flows. On these observations we finally propose to exploit its features to extend the approach to a new family of Green-Nadghi equations. Numerical experiments are also proposed to validate this numerical model.

Análise e implementação de métodos implícitos e de projeção para escoamentos com superfície livre. / Analysis and implementation of implicit and projection methods for free surface flowsOishi, Cássio Machiaveli 05 August 2008 (has links)
No contexto do método MAC e baseado em esquemas de diferenças finitas, este trabalho apresenta três estudos: i) uma análise de estabilidade, ii) o desenvolvimento de técnicas implícitas e, iii) a construção de métodos de projeção para escoamentos com superfície livre. Na análise de estabilidade, o principal resultado mostra que o método de Crank-Nicolson torna-se condicionalmente estável quando aplicado para uma malha deslocada com a discretiza ção explícita das condições de contorno do tipo Dirichlet. Entretanto, o mesmo método com condições de contorno implícitas é incondicionalmente estável. Para obter métodos mais estáveis, formulações implícitas são desenvolvidas para a equação da pressão na superfície livre, derivada da condição de tensão normal. Esta estratégia resulta no acoplamento dos campos de velocidade e pressão, o que exige a introdução de novos métodos de projeção. Os métodos de projeção assim desenvolvidos resultam em novas metodologias para escoamentos com superfície livre que são apropriados para o tratamento de problemas com baixo número de Reynolds. Além disso, mostra-se que os métodos propostos podem ser aplicados para fluidos viscoelásticos. Novas estratégias são derivadas para obter métodos de projeção de segunda ordem de precisão para escoamentos com superfícies livres. Além dos resultados teóricos sobre a estabilidade de esquemas numéricos, técnicas implícitas e métodos de projeção, testes computacionais são realizados e comparados para consolidação da teoria apresentada. Os resultados numéricos são obtidos no sistema FREEFLOW. A eficiência e robustez das técnicas desenvolvidas neste trabalho são demonstradas na solução de problemas tridimensionais complexos com superfície livre e baixo número de Reynolds, incluindo os problemas do jato oscilante e do inchamento do extrudado / In the context of the MAC method and based on finite difference schemes, this work presents three studies: i) a stability analysis, ii) the development of implicit techniques, and iii) the construction of projection methods for free surface flows. In the stability analysis, the main result shows a precise stability restriction on the Crank-Nicolson method when one uses a staggered grid with Dirichlet explicit boundary conditions. However, the same method with implicit boundary conditions becomes unconditionally stable. In order to obtain more stable methods, implicit formulations are applied for the pressure equation at the free surface, which is derived from the normal stress condition. This approach results in a coupling of the velocity and pressure fields; hence new projection methods for free surface flows need to be developed. The developed projection methods result in new methodologies for low Reynolds number free surface flows. It is also shown that the proposed methods can be applied for viscoelastic fluids. New strategies are derived for obtaining second-order accurate projection methods for free surface flows. In addition to the theoretical results on the stability of numerical schemes, implicit techniques and projection methods, computational tests are carried out and the results compared to consolidate the theory. The numerical results are obtained by the FREEFLOW system. The eficiency and robustness of the techniques in this work are demonstrated by solving complex tridimensional problems involving free surface and low Reynolds numbers, including the jet buckling and the extrudate swell problems

Análise isogeométrica aplicada a problemas de interação fluido-estrtura e superfície livreTonin, Mateus Guimarães January 2017 (has links)
O presente trabalho tem por objetivo desenvolver uma formulação numérica baseada em Análise Isogeométrica para o estudo de problemas de interação fluido-estrutura (IFE) em aplicações envolvendo corpos rígidos submersos, onde escoamentos incompressíveis de fluidos Newtonianos com superfície livre são considerados. Propõe-se o emprego da Análise Isogeométrica por permitir a unificação entre os procedimentos de pré-processamento e análise, melhorando assim as condições de continuidade das funções de base empregadas tanto na discretização espacial do problema como na aproximação das variáveis do sistema de equações. O sistema de equações fundamentais do escoamento é formado pelas equações de Navier-Stokes e pela equação da conservação de massa, descrita segundo a hipótese de pseudo-compressibilidade, em uma formulação cinemática ALE (Arbitrary Lagrangean- Eulerian). A consideração da superfície livre no escoamento se dá tratando o fluido como um meio bifásico, através do método Level Set. O corpo rígido apresenta não linearidade na rotação e restrições representadas por vínculos elásticos e amortecedores viscosos, sendo a equação de equilíbrio dinâmico resolvida através do método de Newmark. O esquema de acoplamento sólido-fluido adotado é o particionado convencional, que impõe condições de compatibilidade cinemáticas e de equilíbrio sobre a interface sólido-fluido, analisando ambos os meios de maneira sequencial. A discretização das equações governantes é realizada através do esquema explícito de dois passos de Taylor-Galerkin, aplicado no contexto da Análise Isogeométrica. Por fim, são analisados alguns problemas da Dinâmica de Fluidos Computacional, de onde se concluiu que os resultados obtidos são bastante consistentes com os fenômenos envolvidos, com as ferramentas exclusivas da Análise Isogeométrica, como o refinamento k, melhorando a convergência dos resultados. Para escoamentos bifásicos, verificou-se que o método Level Set obteve resultados bastante promissores apresentando, entretanto, uma dissipação numérica excessiva. Propõe-se, para estudos futuros, a elaboração de esquemas numéricos que conservem melhor o volume da fase líquida do escoamento. / The present work aims to development of a numerical formulation based on Isogeometric Analysis for the study of Fluid-Structure Interaction problems in applications involving rigid bodies submerged, considering incompressible Newtonian flows with free surface. The use of the Isogeometric Analysis allows unification between the preprocessing and analysis steps, improving then the continuity of the base functions employed, both in the spatial discretization and approximation of the variables in the system of equations. The fundamental flow equations are formed by the Navier-Stokes and the mass conservation, described by de pseudo-compressibility hypothesis, in an ALE (Arbitrary Lagrangean-Eulerian) kinematic formulation. The free surface consideration of the flow is handled treating the fluid like a two- phase medium, using the Level Set method. The rigid body considers nonlinearity in rotation, and restrictions represented by elastic springs and viscous dampers, with the dynamic equilibrium equation being resolved using the Newmark’s method. The solid-fluid coupling scheme is the conventional partitioned, which imposes kinematics and equilibrium compatibility conditions on the solid-fluid interface, analyzing both mediums in a sequential manner. The governing equations are discretized using the explicit two step Taylor-Galerkin method, applied in an Isogeometric Analisys context. Finally, some Computational Fluid Dinamics problems are analysed, from which it was concluded that the results obtained are quite consistent with phenomena involved, with the unique tools of Isogeometric Analysis, such as k-refinement, improving the convergence of the results. For biphasic flows, it was verified that the Level Set method obtained very promising results, presenting, however, an excessive numerical dissipation. For future studies, it is proposed the elaboration of numerical schemes that better preserve the volume of the liquid phase of the flow.

Dynamique interne au front d'écoulements à surface libre. Application aux laves torrentielles / Internal dynamics within the front of free-surface flows. Application to debris flowsFreydier, Perrine 30 March 2017 (has links)
Le modèle de couche mince intégré sur l'épaisseur, Saint-Venant, utilisé classiquement pour simuler la propagation de laves torrentielles et coulées boueuses, repose sur plusieurs approximations concernant la forme des profils de vitesse en zones non-uniformes. Il est pourtant nécessaire d'utiliser ce type de modélisation, comme outil d'aide à la gestion des risques liés aux laves torrentielles. Nous proposons d'éprouver ses hypothèses, en observant une zone fortement non-uniforme, le front de coulées à surface libre et le champ de vitesse à l'intérieur de cette zone.En améliorant notre connaissance de l'évolution de la forme des profils de vitesse (de la dynamique interne) au front de coulées, nous cherchons à améliorer les modèles de couche mince. Cette thèse porte donc sur l'étude de la dynamique interne au front d'écoulements à surface libre de fluides newtoniens et viscoplastiques.Nous avons utilisé le dispositif du canal à fond mobile qui permet de générer des coulées stationnaires dans le référentiel de l'observateur au moyen d'un fond mobile remontant vers l'amont. Nous avons réalisé un travail technique sur ce canal et sur l'analyse des images pour pouvoir mesurer les champs de vitesse à haute résolution spatiale aux fronts de coulées à surface libre de fluides viscoplastiques. L'étude des fluides newtoniens a aussi été réalisée afin de valider les modèles et éprouver le dispositif expérimental.Nous avons comparé les résultats expérimentaux aux solutions théoriques de deux modèles de couche mince adaptés à la rhéologie de Herschel-Bulkley : le modèle classique de la lubrification, à la base du modèle de Saint-Venant et un modèle consistant à l'ordre 1 développé dans cette thèse. Le modèle consistant d'ordre 1 est la somme du modèle à l'ordre 0 (la lubrification) et de termes correctifs qui proviennent des contraintes normales et des termes d'inertie. Dans le cadre de notre configuration du fond mobile remontant vers l'amont, il est possible de déduire la forme du front en cherchant une solution de type onde progressive, sans passer par un modèle intégré dans l'épaisseur.Pour les fluides viscoplastiques, la structure classique du profil de vitesse, avec une zone cisaillée surmontée d'un plug non cisaillé est bien reconnaissable sur nos profils de vitesse en zone uniforme, et en zone faiblement variée. Mais à l'approche du front, cependant, la vitesse de surface augmente, les profils de vitesse expérimentaux deviennent cisaillés sur toute l'épaisseur, conduisant à la disparition du plug à proximité de la ligne de front.Le modèle de lubrification prédit l’existence d'un plug dans le front jusqu'à la ligne de contact, ce qui n'est pas observé expérimentalement. La vitesse de surface du modèle de lubrification augmente à l'approche du front, mais est largement sous-estimée par rapport à la vitesse de surface mesurée. Les vitesses de surface prédites par le modèle d'ordre 1 augmentent plus drastiquement au front, en meilleur accord avec les mesures que le modèle de lubrification. Pour certaines configurations expérimentales l'accord est même très bon. Remarquablement, le cisaillement des profils de vitesse à l'approche du front, observé expérimentalement, est aussi prédit par le modèle d'ordre 1.Les profils de vitesse présentent donc une évolution au front de coulées viscoplastiques en contradiction avec les hypothèses du modèle de Saint-Venant. Le modèle consistant d'ordre 1 permet d'améliorer les prédictions. Un modèle intégré dans l'épaisseur de type Saint-Venant basé sur les développements consistants d'ordre 1 est alors calculé, car il constitue l'étape nécessaire avant d'être intégré dans un outil de simulation opérationnel. / A depth-averaged model based on the thin-layer assumption, called Saint-Venant (Shallow-Water), is classically used to simulate the propagation and the spreading of debris and mud flows. It is based on several approximations concerning the shape of the velocity profile in non-uniform zones. We propose to test these hypotheses, examining a strongly non-uniform zone, the front of free-surface viscoplastic flows and the velocity field within this zone. By improving our knowledge about the internal dynamics in the front zone, we seek to improve the thin-layer models. This thesis therefore focuses on the study of the internal dynamics within the front of viscoplatic free-surface flows.We used the moving conveyor belt to generate stationary flows. We carried out a technical work on this set-up, and specific analysis of images obtained from the high-speed camera, in order to be able to measure velocity fields with a high resolution. The study of a Newtonian fluid was also carried out in order to validate the lubrication model and the experimental device.We compared experimental results to theoretical solutions of two thin-layer models taking into account the Herschel-Bulkley rheology: the classical model of lubrication, which is at the base of Saint-Venant model, and a consistent first-order model specifically developed in this thesis.The first-order model is equal to the zero-order model (lubrication), plus corrective terms derived from the normal stresses and inertia terms.In this study, for the purpose of comparison with our experimental results, we are interested in travelling-wave solutions. We are able to solve the shape of the front without using a depth-averaged model.Far from the front, experimental velocity profiles clearly display the characteristic 2-layer structure predicted by the lubrication solution, with constant values close to the free-surface (plug) and a sheared layer underneath. Closer to surge tip, the shape of experimental longitudinal velocity profilesthen begins to differ from the theoretical prediction. The 2-layer structure tends to disappear, and the profiles display shear across the whole depth ofthe flow. In this tip region, surface velocity also appears to increase faster than its theoretical counterpart. Surface velocity predicted by the first-order model increase more drastically in the tip region, in better agreement with the measurements than the lubrication model. The first-order model predicts a sheared velocity profile when approaching the front, as observed experimentally.The consistent first-order model then provides better predictions about internal dynamics than lubrication model. A depth-integrated model like Saint-Venant, based on consistent first-order developments is then calculated, as a first step before being integrated into an operational simulation tool.

Modeling Free Surface Flows and Fluid Structure Interactions using Smoothed Particle HydrodynamicsNair, Prapanch January 2015 (has links) (PDF)
Recent technological advances are based on effectively using complex multiphysics concepts. Therefore, there is an ever increasing need for accurate numerical al-gorithms of reduced complexity for solving multiphysics problems. Traditional mesh-based simulation methods depend on a neighbor connectivity information for formulation of operators like derivatives. In large deformation problems, de-pendence on a mesh could prove a limitation in terms of accuracy and cost of preprocessing. Meshless methods obviate the need to construct meshes thus al-lowing simulations involving severe geometric deformations such as breakup of a contiguous domain into multiple fragments. Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) is a meshless particle based Lagrangian numerical method that has the longest continuous history of development ever since it was introduced in 1977. Commensurate with the significant growth in computational power, SPH has been increasingly applied to solve problems of greater complexity in fluid mechanics, solid mechanics, interfacial flows and astrophysics to name a few.
The SPH approximation of the continuity and momentum equations govern-ing fluid flow traditionally involves a stiff equation of state relating pressure and density, when applied to incompressible flow problems. Incompressible Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (ISPH) is a variant of SPH that replaces this weak com-pressibility approach with a pressure equation that gives a hydrostatic pressure field which ensures a divergence-free (or density invariant) velocity field. The present study explains the development of an ISPH algorithm and its implementa-tion with focus on application to free surface flows, interaction of fluid with rigid bodies and coupling of incompressible fluids with a compressible second phase.
Several improvements to the exiting ISPH algorithm are proposed in this study. A semi-analytic free surface model which is more accurate and robust compared to existing algorithms used in ISPH methods is introduced, validated against experi-ments and grid based CFD results. A surface tension model with specific applica-bility to free surfaces is presented and tested using 2D and 3D simulations. Using theoretical arguments, a volume conservation error in existing particle methods in general is demonstrated. A deformation gradient based approach is used to derive a new pressure equation which reduces these errors. The method is ap-plied to both free surface and internal flow problems and is shown to have better volume conservation and therefore reduced density fluctuations. Also, comments on instabilities arising from particle distributions are made and the role of the smoothing functions in such instabilities is discussed. The challenges in imple-menting the ISPH algorithm in a computer code are discussed and the experience of developing an in-house ISPH code is described.
A parametric study on water entry of cylinders of different shapes, angular velocity and density is performed and aspects such as surface profiles, impact pressures and penetration velocities are compared. An analysis on the energy transfer between the solid and the fluid is also performed. Low Froude number water entry of a sphere is studied and the impact pressure is compared with the theoretical estimates.
The Incompressible SPH formulation, employing the proposed improvements from the study is then coupled with a compressible SPH formulation to perform two phase flow simulations interacting compressible and incompressible fluids. To gain confidence in its applicability, the simulations are compared against the theoretical predication given by the Rayleigh-Plesset equation for the problem of compressible drop in an incompressible fluid.
