The deforming, spreading and retraction were investigated by varying Weber number (<em>We</em> = 25–250), inner liquid viscosity (<em>μ</em> = 5.92–21.1 mPa·s) and ratios of inner to outer radii (<em>α</em> = 0.35–0.72). The results show that droplets with larger α exhibits jet spreading in the early stage and slower retraction in the later stage. The increasing <em>We</em> yields larger inertia force, contributing to that the spreading pattern gradually changes from a rhombus shape to a circular shape. The spreading factor increases with the increasing inner liquid viscosity. In the retracting stage, the spreading factor increases with the decreasing <em>α</em> due to the additional surface tension force causing by the presence of inner interface in the rim. When the viscosity of inner liquid is considerably large, the microstructure inhibits the spreading process. The retraction maximum height on the microstructure increases with the increasing <em>α</em>. Furthermore, the energy dissipation equation was analyzed. It can be concluded that the increasing friction coefficient, contact area and viscosity lead to greater energy dissipation, significantly affecting spreading dynamics.

This approach is mathematically and physically rigorous, in contrast to other PR-DNS methods which rely on ad-hoc numerical schemes to impose no-slip boundary conditions on the surface of particles. With the present PR-DNS strategy, we show that the ratio of filter size to particle diameter acts as a parameter that controls the level of fidelity. In the limit where this ratio is very small, a well-resolved PR-DNS is obtained. Conversely, when the ratio of filter size to particle diameter is large, a classic point-particle method is obtained.

It is possible to develop pipe multiphase flow models using laboratory data or simulator output and machine learning techniques but their application is limited due to their black-box nature and subpar generalization performance. The effectiveness of these models can be improved by “teaching the models to know what they know” and outputting the prediction uncertainty together with a mean value. By giving a stochastic prediction, the model can inform the user about the uncertainty of its prediction, facilitating informed decision-making. In this work, we evaluate 3 machine learning frameworks and 3 parametrization strategies for the development of a stochastic data-driven gas-liquid pipe flow (pressure and holdup) model. This to ultimately determine which machine learning framework and parametrization strategy produces stochastic models that best fit the data set, capture its associated uncertainty and where the predicted uncertainty grows considerably in extrapolation scenarios, rendering the model useless. For this purpose, a steady-state two-phase horizontal flow synthetic dataset was created using a commercial multiphase flow simulator to train and validate three deep learning frameworks: deep ensembles, hyper-deep ensembles, and Monte Carlo dropout. The effect of the performance using different groups of input features to predict the pressure gradient and holdup is also evaluated, and the performance metrics are assessed based on in-domain (validation) and out-of-domain (extrapolation) cases, the latter consisting of a scale-up scenario (bigger diameter). Results indicate that all three frameworks accurately predicted the mean values. However, deep ensembles outperformed the other in predicting the uncertainty range. Additionally, the results show the feature importance of different dimensional and dimensionless inputs for the model training and prediction.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":339,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Multiphase Flow","volume":"187 ","pages":"Article 105184"},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143509157","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The segmented images subsequently facilitate a high-level statistical analysis of gas-liquid-interface contours and ultimately instability dynamics. For this purpose, multiple ML models varying in architecture (Semantic FPN and DeepLabV3+), datasets and augmentations are benchmarked to achieve the best performance. Subsequently, the best model is validated and used to obtain conditional statistics on the detected spray contours of three different spray types (jet-in-crossflow, pressure swirl spray and prefilming airblast spray). The model showcases high robustness, transferability across spray configurations and accuracy along multiple never-seen sprays thereby illustrating the superiority of deep learning methods for scientific image segmentation tasks.

Two models are employed to compute the hydrodynamic force and torque acting on the ellipsoids in order to assess the influence of the fluid inertia. The first one is an analytical model derived under the assumption of a creeping flow motion at the particle scale while the second model relies on semi-empirical correlations to account for the effect of the fluid inertia on the hydrodynamic actions. For spherical and ellipsoidal particles alike, the hydrodynamic actions model has a weak influence on the probability density function of the particle Reynolds number and on their translational velocity statistics. The hydrodynamic actions modelling however strongly affects the near-wall rotation of weakly and moderately inertial ellipsoids, owing to the different rotation orbits favoured by the ellipsoids. This causes significant variations of the mean orientation and of the ellipsoids angular velocity statistics. In contrast, the rotational dynamics of highly inertial ellipsoids weakly depends on the hydrodynamic actions modelling in the near-wall region, but significantly varies in the buffer region. This effect is associated with the torque generated by the particle motion relative to the surrounding fluid, which results in a strong enhancement of the particle angular velocity fluctuations. Preferential alignment of the ellipsoids normal to the relative translational velocity vector is observed when the inertial effects are accounted for, corresponding to recent experimental observations and theoretical developments.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":339,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Multiphase Flow","volume":"188 ","pages":"Article 105176"},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143511354","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

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.
