Research Interests: Interested in understanding the multiscale interactions between fluids and solids in complex multiphase systems, with particular emphasis on flow-induced erosion and performance optimization in fluid machinery such as pumps and pipelines. I am particularly interested in cavitating flows, including the nucleation, growth, and collapse of cavitation bubbles and their impact on surface degradation. Additionally, I investigate the multiscale dynamics of droplet breakup, motion, deformation, and coalescence under various flow conditions. These studies aim to advance the understanding and engineering of multiphase flow systems across scales.
Multiphase and cavitating flows are common in fluid engineering, appearing in applications such as gas-stirred vessels, oil-gas transportation, fluidized beds, pumps, and turbines. Simulating these flows numerically is challenging due to the complex and nonlinear physical phenomena involved, such as the interactions between phases, multi-scale interfaces, and turbulence. Accurate representation of phase interfaces, turbulence modeling, and coupling of fluid dynamics, heat-mass transfer, and chemical reactions are key challenges.
This Special Issue aims to compile high-quality papers focusing on advanced numerical methods for simulating multiphase and cavitating flows, with a particular emphasis on interface capture, tracking, multi-scale and Euler-Lagrange approaches, turbulence modeling, and complex models considering chemical reactions.
Potential topics include, but are not limited to the following:
- Advanced methods for interface capturing and tracking
- Multi-scale simulation techniques
- Turbulence modeling in multiphase flows
- Euler-Lagrange methods in multiphase simulations
- Modeling of chemical reactions in multiphase and cavitating flows
