惯性区液滴聚并动力学

The Dynamics of Liquid Drops Coalescing in the Inertial Regime

James E. Sprittles, Yulii D. Shikhmurzaev

摘要:

我们研究两个聚结液滴在“惯性制度”,粘度的影响可以忽略不计,可以被认为是“本地”的桥梁前连接的下降的传播的动态。在经典流体力学的框架内充分计算的解决方案允许识别该制度,并建议建立近似比例律来描述桥梁的传播。研究表明,该区域已知的标度律具有非常有限的准确性区域,因此,在描述实验数据时,它经常被应用于其适用范围之外。标度定律的缺点的起源似乎是这样一个事实,即它占毛细管压力,由于只有作为驱动力的自由表面的纵向曲率的过程。为了解决这一不足,扩展的比例定律,以占在桥前的纵向和方位角曲率,偶然的是,仍然导致在一个明确的解析表达式的前面的传播速度。这个新的表达式,然后示出提供一个很好的近似完全计算的解决方案和实验数据从一系列的流动配置的一个显着的大比例的聚结过程。推导出的公式允许一个预测的速度,滴合并的惯性制度的持续时间,这应该是有用的实验数据的分析。

英文摘要:

We examine the dynamics of two coalescing liquid drops in the `inertial regime', where the effects of viscosity are negligible and the propagation of the bridge front connecting the drops can be considered as `local'. The solution fully computed in the framework of classical fluid-mechanics allows this regime to be identified and the accuracy of the approximating scaling laws proposed to describe the propagation of the bridge to be established. It is shown that the scaling law known for this regime has a very limited region of accuracy and, as a result, in describing experimental data it has frequently been applied outside its limits of applicability. The origin of the scaling law's shortcoming appears to be the fact that it accounts for the capillary pressure due only to the longitudinal curvature of the free surface as the driving force for the process. To address this deficiency, the scaling law is extended to account for both the longitudinal and azimuthal curvatures at the bridge front which, fortuitously, still results in an explicit analytic expression for the front's propagation speed. This new expression is then shown to offer an excellent approximation for both the fully-computed solution and for experimental data from a range of flow configurations for a remarkably large proportion of the coalescence process. The derived formula allows one to predict the speed at which drops coalesce for the duration of the inertial regime which should be useful for the analysis of experimental data.
