The results are analyzed by examining the dynamics of spreading, energy balance, and scaling laws. The findings indicate that the kinetic energy from the impact of the drops is dissipated through viscoplastic effects during the spreading process, leading to the emergence of three distinct flow regimes: inertio-viscous, inertio-plastic, and mixed inertio-visco-plastic. These regimes are heavily influenced by the initial aspect ratio of the impacting drops, suggesting that morphology can be used to control spreading behavior.

Accurate prediction of the two-phase distribution in the liquid slug is crucial for efficient mineral lifting and accident prevention. This study develops a probability model for predicting the bubble size distribution of slug flow in vertical pipes. The liquid slug is divided into the near wake and far wake regions based on Taylor bubble wake influence. In the near wake, the vortex tears the liquid film at the tail of the Taylor bubble and generates new bubbles, while pushing the old bubbles to move towards the Taylor bubble, facilitating gas exchange between the Taylor bubble and the liquid slug. In the far wake region, vortices and random collisions enable dispersed bubbles to exchange gas with each other. These gas exchange processes occur continuously and maintain dynamic equilibrium in stable slug flow. Calculating the probability of the generation and death of a single bubble, along with the analysis of the bubble behavior, yields a probability model for predicting the bubble size distribution. The model is validated using experimental data and shows good consistency.

The research identified four distinct modes of cavity morphology for both the first and second cavities. For the first cavity, these modes include non-existent/destroyed, compressed, and quasi-single cavity, while the second cavity exhibits non-existent/destroyed, compressed, expanded, and quasi-single cavity forms. Multiple parameters were found to affect cavity morphology, with time interval emerging as a particularly crucial factor. The study revealed complex dynamics in cavity formation: the maximum diameter of the first cavity increases with increasing time intervals, while its maximum length exhibits a non-monotonic trend, initially decreasing and then increasing. The second cavity demonstrates even more intricate behavior, with its maximum diameter initially increasing, then decreasing with time intervals, followed by minor fluctuations. Its maximum length shows a pronounced non-monotonic trend, first decreasing, then increasing, followed by significant fluctuations. Notably, the position of the maximum diameter of the second cavity consistently aligns with the collapse plane of the first cavity. This study reveals complex dynamics in cavity interactions during parallel water entry based on the influence function <strong><em>φ</em></strong> defined. As the time interval increases, the impact of the second cavity on the first cavity progressively attenuates. Conversely, the influence of the first cavity on the second exhibits a non-monotonic trend: initially intensifying, then subsequently diminishing. The peak influence occurs when the time interval equals the ratio of the cylinder length to the water entry speed. Notably, when the time interval exceeds a critical threshold, defined as the ratio of the maximum length of a single cavity at the same speed to the water entry speed, the mutual influence between the first and second cavities becomes negligible. This analysis elucidates the intricate temporal dependencies in cavity formation and interaction during parallel high-speed water entries, providing valuable insights into the fluid dynamics of such phenomena.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":339,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Multiphase Flow","volume":"186 ","pages":"Article 105164"},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143349854","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
