Effect of G-Jitter on multiphase fluid systems

The effects of G-Jitter on the surface oscillation and internal flow structure of a liquid bridge have been investigated in order to understand the effect of G-Jitter on the multiphase fluid systems. The theoretical analysis shows that the resonance frequency of the liquid bridge changes depending on the size and physical property of the liquid bridge. The experimental study indicates that there may be a triple coupling link between the vibration-induced surface oscillations and flow/temperature oscillations inside the liquid bridge. The numerical results reveal the flow structure inside the liquid bridge when G-Jitter is applied on the liquid bridge. Moreover, our results from the theoretical analysis as well as experimental study are compared with those from the numerical simulation, and the theoretical and experimental results match the numerical ones well.
