A Numerical Model for Oil/water Separation from an Accelerating Oil-coated Solid Particle
A computational fluid dynamics model has been developed to examine the separation of an oil film from a spherical oil-coated particle falling through quiescent water due to gravity. Using this model, the separation process was studied as a function of the viscosity ratio of oil to water, R, and the...
