• Bubble rise dynamics in a viscoplastic material 

      Tripathi, M. K.; Sahu, K. C.; Karapetsas, G.; Matar, O. K. (2015)
      The axisymmetric dynamics of a bubble rising in a Bingham fluid under the action of buoyancy is studied. The Volume-of-Fluid (VOF) method is used to solve the equations of mass and momentum conservation, coupled to an ...
    • Bubbles growing in supersaturated solutions at reduced gravity 

      Divinis, N.; Karapantsios, T. D.; Kostoglou, M.; Panoutsos, C. S.; Bontozoglou, V.; Michels, A. C.; Sneep, M. C.; De Bruijn, R.; Lotz, H. (2004)
      This work investigates bubbles growing in a liquid saturated with a dissolved gas when its temperature is locally raised above its saturation value, yet below boiling. Local supersaturation is realized by giving heat pulses ...
    • Effect of wall roughness on shear viscosity and diffusion in nanochannels 

      Sofos, F.; Karakasidis, T. E.; Liakopoulos, A. (2010)
      The effect of wall roughness on liquid argon shear viscosity and diffusion coefficient in nanochannels is studied by non-equilibrium molecular dynamics. Diffusion coefficient results are presented in terms of average values ...
    • Nucleation, growth and detachment of neighboring bubbles over miniature heaters 

      Karapantsios, T. D.; Kostoglou, M.; Divinis, N.; Bontozoglou, V. (2008)
      This work investigates how simultaneous CO2 bubbles desorb from water and n-heptane when these liquids become supersaturated with dissolved CO2. Supersaturation is imposed locally by a miniature heater so bubbles grow at ...
    • Self-similar growth of a gas bubble induced by localized heating: the effect of temperature-dependent transport properties 

      Divinis, N.; Kostoglou, M.; Karapantsios, T. D.; Bontozoglou, V. (2005)
      A gas bubble growing in a saturated liquid under the action of an internal heat source is studied theoretically as a model problem for the growth of a bubble around a miniature spherical heater submerged in the liquid. In ...
