1 “Hydrodynamic cavitation is a process of generation, growth, and collapse of vapor cavities leading to intense localised shear and energy dissipation. Controlling and utilizing these localized harsh conditions has the potential to revolutionize emulsion formation on demand. It is, however, essential to develop high-fidelity computational models to accurately simulate the inception and extent of cavitation and their subsequent impact on droplet size distribution. We are using Ansys computational fluid dynamics (CFD) tools to achieve this. Simulation was essential in designing cavitation devices and optimizing operating parameters to produce liquid-liquid emulsions of desired drop size distribution.” Vivek V.
