  2. 1. Droplet Velocities in a Liquid Spray

    Author : Andreas Cronhjort; KTH; []
    Keywords : Liquid spray; diesel spray; droplet velocities; droplet sizes; sprayvisualization; sliced spray; particle image velocimetry; spectrum; cepstrum; cross-correlation; auto-correlation;

    Abstract : A method to look into a dense liquid spray has beenevaluated. The spray was mechanically sliced to remove theobscuring parts of it, thus gaining optical access to theinternal regions and thereby allowing for visualization ofpreviously unavailable parts of the spray. READ MORE

  4. 2. Membrane emulsification: modelling interfacial and geometric effects on droplet size

    Author : Marilyn Rayner; Livsmedelsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; pore geometry; membrane emulsification; Gases; Surface Evolver; fluid dynamics; plasmas; Gaser; fluiddynamik; plasma; Chemical technology and engineering; Kemiteknik och kemisk teknologi; Food and drink technology; modelling; Livsmedelsteknik;

    Abstract : Emulsification is an important unit operation used in the pharmaceutical, food, and cosmetic industry. Membrane emulsification is a relatively new membrane technology which allows the production of emulsion droplets under controlled conditions with a narrow droplet size distribution. READ MORE

  5. 3. Mixing and Evaporation at the Cloud Edge and Angular Dynamics of Small Crystals in Viscous Flow

    Author : Johan Fries; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; cloud microphysics; droplet evaporation; reactive flows; Jeffery orbits; shear flow;

    Abstract : How liquid water in atmospheric clouds distributes over droplets of different sizes is important for the initiation of rainfall, and for the optical properties of the atmosphere. Droplet-number densities and droplet-size distributions change rapidly at turbulent cloud edges, where mixing of cloudy and dry air causes cloud dilution and droplet evaporation. READ MORE

  6. 4. Modelling the effects of organic aerosol phase partitioning processes on cloud formation

    Author : Samuel Joseph Lowe; Ilona Riipinen; Daniel Partridge; Harri Kokkola; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cloud droplet activation; organic aerosol; cloud parcel modelling; Köhler theory; Sensitivity and Uncertainty analysis; Applied Environmental Science; tillämpad miljövetenskap;

    Abstract : Atmospheric aerosols particles may act as cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) that provide sites for condensation of water vapour for the formation of cloud droplets, called cloud droplet activation. Whether aerosol particles are CCN is determined by their size, composition and the ambient humidity. READ MORE

  7. 5. Phase change, surface tension and turbulence in real fluids

    Author : Daniel Albernaz; Gustav Amberg; Minh Do-Quang; Shu Takagi; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Engineering Mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

    Abstract : Sprays are extensively used in industry, especially for fuels in internal combustion and gas turbine engines. An optimal fuel/air mixture prior to combustion is desired for these applications, leading to greater efficiency and minimal levels of emissions. READ MORE
