Abstract
In this study we focus on a generic method to model the generation of droplets from a non-resolved simulation of free surface flow. The application is entrainment of droplets from the large-scale interface of waves interacting with a wind field. At first, the droplets generation rate will be calculated based on the local shear stress and other interface properties. Then, a special method is applied to detach liquid droplets from the continuous phase such that the total mass and momentum are conserved. Droplets trajectories will be computed using Lagrangian tracking method. Droplets that collide with the large-scale interface will again become continuous water and are removed from the computation. The interaction between droplets and surrounding gas will be accounted by adding a source term in momentum equations. In order to achieve a stable result, the source term will be handled implicitly. The model suggestions are explored and verified through simulations. The prospects of this modelling approach is discussed.
