Fracture networks are abundant in subsurface applications (e.g., geothermal energy production, CO<sub>2</sub> sequestration). Fractured reservoirs often have a very complex structure, making modeling flow and transport in such networks slow and unstable. Consequently, this limits our ability to perform uncertainty quantification and increases...

In this article, a microchannel thermal management system (MTMS) with the two-phase flow using the refrigerant R1234yf with low global warming potential is presented. The thermal test vehicles (TTVs) were made of either single or multiple thermal test chips embedded in the substrates, which were then attached to the MTMS. The system included...

In dredging applications, deep sea mining and land reclamation projects typically large amounts of sediments are transported through pipes in the form of hyper concentrated (40% sediment or more) sediment-water mixtures or slurry. These slurries can flow at three different regimes. 1: fully suspended (homogeneous and stratified) 2: partially...

The tubing performance relation curve is a measure of well performance in gas well engineering. It describes the two-phase flow inside a well and as such is modeled as a two-phase one dimensional pipe flow. Convention claims that production points on the TPR curve to the right of its minimum are stable. There also exist claims about the region...

Ocean thermal energy conversion (OTEC) is currently developed as a clean and sustainable energy technology for offshore application in tropical areas. The technology shows promising possibilities in combination with the Kalina cycle, a thermodynamic cycle for the generation of energy from low temperature difference heat sources using a working...

A general model is presented for short-range hydrodynamic interactions and head-on particle-particle/wall collisions. The model has been embedded in two distinct numerical methods for fully resolved simulation of finite-size particles in a viscous fluid. It accounts for the material properties of the particles and lubrication effects prior to...

Carbon dioxide injected in an aquifer rises quickly to the top of the reservoir and forms a gas cap from where it diffuses into the underlying water layer. Transfer of the CO2 to the aqueous phase below is enhanced due to the high density of the carbon dioxide containing aqueous phase. This paper investigates the behavior of the diffusive...

Dust emissions can have significant effects on the human health, environment and industry equipment. Understanding the dust generation process helps to select a suitable dust preventing approach and also is useful to evaluate the environmental impact of dust emission. To describe these processes, numerical methods such as Computational Fluid...

recent years, the interest in fluidization as a mean to process nanoparticles is strongly increasing. Due to the small size of the nanoparticles, which makes van der Waals forces predominate, they do not fluidize as single particles but as agglomerates. Various researchers using settling experiments and bed expansion measurements conclude that...

Micromodels have been increasingly employed in various ways in porous media research, to study the pore-scale behavior of fluids. Micromodels have proven to be a valuable tool by allowing the observation of flow and transport at the micron scale in chemical, biological, and physical applications. They have helped to improve our insight of flow...

We introduce a novel type of droplet generator that produces droplets of a volume set by the geometry of the droplet generator and not by the flow rates of the liquids. The generator consists of a classic T-junction with a bypass channel. This bypass directs the continuous fluid around the forming droplets, so that they can fill the space...

A numerical study has been made of horizontal core-annular flow: the flow of a high-viscosity liquid core surrounded by a low-viscosity liquid annular layer through a horizontal pipe. Special attention is paid to the question how the buoyancy force on the core, caused by a density difference between the core and the annular layer, is...

transportation facilities. In an offshore oil and gas production facility, pipeline-riser systems are required to transport two-phase hydrocarbons from subsurface oil and gas wells to a central production platform. Severe slugs reaching several thousands pipe diameters may occur when transporting gas and liquid in these pipeline-riser systems....

Modeling of low-Capillary number segmented flows in microchannels is important for the design of microfluidic devices. We present numerical validations of microfluidic flow simulations using the volume-of-fluid (VOF) method as implemented in OpenFOAM. Two benchmark cases were investigated to ensure the reliability of OpenFOAM in modeling complex...

It is common practice to use the inhalation route to deliver medicine in the form of aerosol to treat patients with pulmonary ailments like cystic fibrosis. In pulmonary drug delivery, medicine in the form of small droplets is inhaled by patients and delivered to their lungs. A major challenge faced in developing such devices is that effective...

Recently, an amount of methane was produced with hot water in the Ammerlaan geothermal field. The presence of methane influences fluid properties and fluid flow in the well, leading to changes in the pressure and temperature drop in the producing well. This study presents a model for non-isothermal two-phase flow in geothermal wells. In this...

Experiments were conducted in order to investigate the influences of flow rate, applied voltage, and electric conductivity on droplet size and size distribution of water electrosprays in the simple-jet mode. The results show that the electric potential decreases significantly the relative standard deviation (RSD) of the spray size distribution,...

Explosive evaporation of a superheated liquid is a relevant hazard in the process industry. A vessel rupture during storage, transport or handling may lead to devastating blast effects. In order to assess the risk associated with this hazard or to design protective measures, an accurate prediction model for the blast generated after vessel...
