How do the liquid properties affect the entrapment of bubbles in gas sheared liquid flows? (2021)
Journal Article

A large number of industries use fossil fuels for the purpose of cooling and lubrication utilizing a gas stream that acts as a shearing force on the liquid surface. Decreasing the carbon footprint of these processes needs an improved understanding of... Read More about How do the liquid properties affect the entrapment of bubbles in gas sheared liquid flows?.

Simulation of a Simplified Aeroengine Bearing Chamber Using a Fully Coupled Two-Way Eulerian Thin Film/Discrete Phase Approach Part II: Droplet Behavior in the Chamber (2021)
Journal Article

Within aeroengines, bearing chambers exhibit a highly complex two-phase environment as a result of the complex air/oil interactions. The desire to operate at both higher temperatures and shaft speeds requires a sufficient understanding of these syste...

Simulation of a Simplified Aeroengine Bearing Chamber Using a Fully Coupled Two-Way Eulerian Thin Film/Discrete Phase Approach Part I: Film Behavior Near the Bearing (2021)
Journal Article

Previous work at the Gas Turbine and Transmissions Research Center (G2TRC) has highlighted the need for an adequate computational model, which can appropriately model the oil shedding behavior from bearings. Oil can break up forming droplets and liga...
