Dynamics of long bubbles propagating through cylindrical micro-pin fin arrays (2023)
Journal Article
El Mellas, I., Municchi, F., Icardi, M., & Magnini, M. (2023). Dynamics of long bubbles propagating through cylindrical micro-pin fin arrays. International Journal of Multiphase Flow, 163, 104443. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijmultiphaseflow.2023.104443

The dynamics of two-phase flows confined within complex and non-straight geometries is of interest for a variety of applications such as micro-pin fin evaporators and flow in unsaturated porous media. Despite the propagation of bubbles in straight ch... Read More about Dynamics of long bubbles propagating through cylindrical micro-pin fin arrays.

Liquid film distribution around long gas bubbles propagating in rectangular capillaries (2022)
Journal Article
Magnini, M., Municchi, F., El Mellas, I., & Icardi, M. (2022). Liquid film distribution around long gas bubbles propagating in rectangular capillaries. International Journal of Multiphase Flow, 148, Article 103939. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijmultiphaseflow.2021.103939

We present a systematic analysis of the bubble and liquid film dynamics corresponding to the propagation of long, isolated gas bubbles, within rectangular capillary channels of cross-sectional aspect-ratio ranging from 1 to 8. Direct numerical simula... Read More about Liquid film distribution around long gas bubbles propagating in rectangular capillaries.
