Internal re circulaiton in droplet

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi,

At the outset I should mention that I am novice in Comsol with very limited experience.

I am trying to model air flow around water droplet. For the time being it is assumed that there would not be any droplet deformation.I am using the laminar two phase flow physics available with Comsol 4.3. Unfortunately, I am unable to define proper BCs at the droplet interface to generate the internal re-circulation in the droplet. I have tried all the BCs available with Comsol, but they seemed to be futile. I have attached a figure of the physical domain with BCs that I have used and a result on the plots of streamline of water.

It would be deeply appreciated if anyone could suggest some mechanism to define the boundary condition at the interface which would predict the internal re-circulation in the droplet.

Thanks
Sangram
