It is shown that the combination of generalized Van der Waals equations of state with high-order discrete velocity lattices, permits to simulate the dynamics of liquid droplets at air-water density ratios, with very moderate levels of spurious currents near the droplet interface. Satisfactory agreement with experimental data on droplet collisions at density ratios of order thousand is reported.

Abstract

It is shown that the combination of generalized Van der Waals equations of state with high-order discrete velocity lattices, permits to simulate the dynamics of liquid droplets at air-water density ratios, with very moderate levels of spurious currents near the droplet interface. Satisfactory agreement with experimental data on droplet collisions at density ratios of order thousand is reported.
