Computational study of free surface film flow and subsequent disintegration of a sheet and ligaments into droplets from a rotary disk atomizer (2023)
Journal Article

In the present study, a computational methodology based on computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is developed to investigate free surface film flow and its subsequent disintegration on a rotary disk atomizer. The present study provides an insight into e...

COUPLED EULERIAN THIN FILM MODEL AND LAGRANGIAN DISCRETE PHASE MODEL TO PREDICT FILM THICKNESS INSIDE AN AERO-ENGINE BEARING CHAMBER (2022)
Conference Proceeding

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.

Numerical simulation of multi-scale oil films on a rotating cup using VOF and coupled Eulerian thin-film-dpm approaches (2022)
Conference Proceeding

In this study, the newly developed Nottingham Gas Turbine and Transmission Research Centre (G2TRC) Bearing Chamber Test Module is presented and investigated computationally. The module houses a rotating cup and shaft configuration in order to simulat...

Predictions of falling wavy films based on the depth averaged thin film model and its application to aeroengine bearing chamber (2022)
Conference Proceeding

In the present study, the evolution of a falling wavy film with upstream forced excitation is investigated using the depth averaged thin film model, known as Eulerian Thin Film Model (ETFM). Because of the depth averaging of the governing equations,...
