APS -70th Annual Meeting of the APS Division of Fluid Dynamics- Event - Coherent structures over Super Hydrophobic and Liquid Infused Surfaces

摘要

Numerical Simulations of two superposed fluids in a turbulent channel have been performed. Both walls of the channel are made of longitudinal riblets with a gas fractions of $0.5$ and several pitch values $p^+=18, 36, 72, 144$. For Liquid Infused Surfaces, LIS, with a viscosity ratio $m = mu_1/mu_2 = 0.4$ (where the subscripts $1$ and $2$indicate the fluid in the cavities and the overlying fluid respectively) two cases have been considered varying the Weber number: $We = 0$, implying an interface sustained by the surface tension and $We = 1000$ with the dynamics of the interfacebetween the two fluids modeled with a Level Set Approach. Results are compared to the case mimicking water over air (Super hydrophobic Surface SHS $m = 0.02$) and $We=0$. A smooth channel with one fluid only at $Re_{au}=180$ is used as reference and to assess how the LIS and SHS modify coherent structures near the wall.
