Micromechanics of agglomeration forced by the capillary bridge: The restitution of momentum

Abstract: The formation of capillary bridge formed by a liquid adsorbate is one of the main reasons for agglomeration in multiphase flows. Agglomeration takes place when the relative momentum of two colliding particles is fully consumed by the bridge. This article presents a theoretical study of the collisions of particles with adsorbed liquid taking into account the influence of capillary and viscous dissipative forces. The article proposes an approximate analytical solution for the dynamics of the bridge formed during… Show more

“…The solution of equation of motion for the particles within the bridge was found analytically (Balakin et al, 2013). The bridge restitution coefficients were then set to be dependent on dimensionless parameters that characterize the bridge (given in Table 1):…”

“…The location and amount of water could be an important variable in determining overall cohesive force [22]. Thus excess free water and/or the presence of water film should affect cohesive force [22][23][24][25][26], interparticle aggregation and viscosity. According to the proposed mechanism of anti-agglomeration [3] in oil-dominated systems, Span 20 may disperse water droplets into the oil phase evenly, while another component of AA may interact with hydrate surface to prevent particles from agglomeration.…”

“…The expression for fluid lubrication in Eq. (23) has a singular point when the particle surface distance x ij approaches zero (Balakin et al 2013;Crowe et al 2011). However, in the DEM code the singularity is avoided by activation of spring-dashpot rebound behavior just before the real particle surfaces come in contact.…”
