Measuring the critical capillary number
Is there a way to measure the critical capillary number? I am running water flooding tests in micro single capillary ducts. I am displacing oil in my experiment, and my channel should be oil wet. I was able to measure the properties of both fluids, this includes; Kin and Dyn Viscosities...- Talal

Surface roughness in 2D sinusoidal corrugation
Hello, I don't now who replied after Mike. Yes, this is exactly what is going on. The experiment I am conducting, I have different shapes including a smooth channel as you suggested. I was using Satish Khandlikar's method which is a confined hydraulic diameter. Wcf = W - 2K where W is the...- Talal

Foam Flow: Darcy vs NS Equation
According to the attached article, Foam is a Bingham plastic. Darcy's equation with Bingham's extension can be used to describe the flow. My question is, for foam flow, does utilising Darcy's equation a reasonable approach ? What benefits does it have, or better yet, why not use Navier stockes...- Talal

Surface roughness in 2D sinusoidal corrugation
Hello, For a project I am working on, I am trying to design a 2D with parallel sinusoidal patterns. Imagine a 2D section of a pipe (two parallel surfaces with distance in between). Each surface is basically a sine function. Peak points meet with each other, as well as troughs. Liquid is...- Talal

Uncovering the Mysteries of Surface Roughness: A Student's Quest
Greetings, I am currently a student in the UK. I found this website in hopes to get help with certain questions I have regarding surface roughness. I don't wish to give much details about my self. I hope I don't come across as offensive. Best Regards, Talal- Talal
