In Proceedings of Global Power and Propulsion Society. https://doi.org/10.33737/gpps22-tc-68

In aero-engine bearing chambers, two-phase shearing flows are difficult to predict as Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) RANS models tend to overestimate interfacial turbulence levels, leading to inaccuracies in the modelling of the flow. Turbulence... Read More about COUPLED EULERIAN THIN FILM MODEL AND LAGRANGIAN DISCRETE PHASE MODEL TO PREDICT FILM THICKNESS INSIDE AN AERO-ENGINE BEARING CHAMBER.

Can simultaneous PIV in the gas and liquid phases provide insight into the transfer of momentum between the two phases? (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kim, J. H., Hann, D. B., Eastwick, C. M., & Cherdantsev, A. V. (2022, July). Can simultaneous PIV in the gas and liquid phases provide insight into the transfer of momentum between the two phases?. Paper presented at 20th International Symposium on the Application of Laser and Imaging Techniques to Fluid Mechanics, Lisbon, Portugal

Understanding the interaction between a gas shearing over a liquid film and the liquid film is essential if we wish to use modeling to optimize systems to decrease environmental impact, increase efficiency and hence productivity. To this end, PIV is... Read More about Can simultaneous PIV in the gas and liquid phases provide insight into the transfer of momentum between the two phases?.
