The drop surface evolution is captured by the level set method, in which the interface is represented by the embedded set of zero level of a scalar distance function defined in the whole computational domain. Numerical simulation of the Marangoni effect induced by interphase mass transfer to/from deformable single drops in unsteady motion in liquid-liquid extraction systems is performed in a Eulerian axisymmetric reference frame. The occurrence and development of the Marangoni effect are simulated, and the re- sults are in good agreement with the classical theoretical analysis and previous simulation.展开更多

After the traditional reinitialization procedure, a vol-ume-amending method is added for correcting the position of the interface according to mass loss/gain error until the mass error falls in the allowable range designated in advance. The level set approach with this volume-amending method incorporated has been validated by three test cases: the motion of a single axisymmetrical bubble or drop in liquid, the motion of a two-dimensional water drop falling through the air into a water pool, and the interactional motion of two buoyancy-driven three- dimensional deformable bubbles. The computational results with this volume-amending method in-corporated are in good agreement with the reported experimental data and the mass is well preserved in all cases.展开更多
