Abstract
This work is a contribution to the study of deformation of a non-wetting drop transported under the combined effect of gravity and permanent fluid motion in a vertical channel. The deformation being caused during passage of the drop through a constriction formed by two spherical obstacles placed opposite in a vertical channel. For this purpose a three-dimensional computation is conducted in order to illustrate the behavior of the drop in the condition of non-wettability. The flow based on Navier–Stokes equation is solved numerically with volume of fluid (VOF) method. The corresponding simulations are carried out in view to analyse the behavior of the drop when it is forced to move between the obstacles for different values gap size until the breakup is obtained.
