Popis: | A numerical method of liquid pouring from a beverage can was proposed in the present paper, and a numerical model of the effects of dew condensation on the flow from the can was also developed. An experimental observation showed that the liquid flowed over the can lid and was once obstructed by the rim of the lid. Then, it flowed over the rim and fell off, forming a V-shaped surface. The numerical result agreed with the experimental result. Effects of condensation formed on a can surface were also simulated. In the simulation, the effect of condensation was considered by adjusting a contact angle, defined as an “effective” contact angle. The trajectory of the falling liquid came close to the can body for higher wettability by condensation. With more condensation, the liquid pouring from a can trickled down along the can body. The computation reproduces these experimental observations. |
