This paper presents a dynamic simulation approach to investigating liquid loading in gas wells for a fluid flowing in the mist flow regime. Two-component gas-liquid two-phase flow is considered, using coupled thermodynamic and hydrodynamic models as

LNG-solid impacts with gas cushioning and phase change are investigated theoretically in a coupled inviscid liquid and viscous gas regime. Condensation from the gas to the LNG is driven by local increases in the gas pressure above the saturation vapo

The unsteady viscous flow induced by streamwise-travelling waves of spanwise wall velocity in an incompressible laminar channel flow is investigated. Wall waves belonging to this category have found important practical applications, such as microflui

Flash calculations are widely used and constitute an integral part of modelling vapour-liquid equilibria in compositional simulators. However, it has been discovered that during compositional simulations, flash calculations take 50–70% of the overa

The pre-impact gas cushioning behaviour of a droplet approaching touchdown onto a thin layer of porous substrate is investigated. Although the model is applicable to droplet impacts with any porous substrate of limited height, a thin layer of porous

The use of spanwise wall oscillations to attenuate the growth of laminar streaks within the incompressible Blasius boundary layer is investigated. As in the case of the flow above a stationary flat plate, studied by Leib et al. (J. Fluid Mech., vol.

The normal impact of a symmetric rigid body with an initially quiescent liquid half-space is considered using both Wagner theory and a model of viscous gas pre-impact cushioning. The predictions of these two theories are compared for a range of diffe

The role played by gas compressibility in gas-cushioned liquid–solid impacts is investigated within a viscous gas and inviscid liquid regime. A full analysis of the energy conservation in the gas is conducted for the first time, which indicates tha

An experimental and theoretical investigation of the air trapping by a blunt, locally spherical body impacting onto the free surface of water is conducted. In the parameter regime previously studied theoretically by Hicks & Purvis (J. Fluid Mech., vo

The evolution of the combined solid–fluid motion when a solid body undergoes a skimming impact with (and rebounds from) a shallow liquid layer is investigated. A model is derived coupling the motion of the body to the fluid dynamics of the liquid l
