Surface phenomena is one of the fundamental branches of science that has many applications in industries related to multiphase processes. One of the most important issues of this knowledge is inter-phase transport phenomena in contacting gas - liquid and liquid – liquid systems. Multiphase systems generally include dispersions such that in many cases are associated with the relative motion between the continuous and dispersed phase. One of the most widely used inter-phase flow systems is dispersion of gas bubbles in the bulk of liquid. The overall efficiency of these systems is often determined by the characteristics of the gas phase. In order to understand the dynamic behavior of such... 

Surface phenomena and dynamic interfacial properties plays a significant role in multiphase gas-liquid & liquid-liquid processes applied in different industrial applications. However, current laboratory equipment and represented methods for dynamic and unsteady state condition caused by motivation of interface of two phases (like rising bubble), in purpose of qualitative investigation of interphase properties are not satisfying enough. Also, common modeling methods are represented with lots of modified assumptions which are not validated properly with experimental results. In current thesis, with development of laboratory tools and applying the “rising bubble method” for investigating the... 

The present study has been performed for better understanding about the dynamic behavior of fluid interfaces in presence of surfactants, nanoparticles and their interactions in gas-liquid dispersion systems. One of the main purposes of this work is to investigate the influence of surface modified nanoparticles on the dynamic behavior of gas-liquid interfaces. For this purpose, the rising bubble experiment was used as one of the most conventional procedures. Local velocities of bubbles rising in nanoparticle solutions were determined experimentally. Influences of silica nanoparticles which were modified via three approaches were investigated in these experiments. Heat treatment was applied to... 

Interfacial phenomena and properties of interphase surfaces in dynamic mode play an important role in industrial processes that include gas-liquid and liquid-liquid multiphase flows. As well as, interface knowledge leads to better understanding of natural and fundamental phenomena. The present study has been performed for understanding about dynamic behavior of interphase surfaces in the presence of nanoparticles and hexane vapor in gas-liquid dispersion systems. In this research, rising bubble method has been used as one of the most conventional techniques. Accordingly, aqueous solutions of nanosilica were prepared in concentrations of 50, 100, 200, 400 and 1200 ppm as continuous phase... 

Surface phenomena and dynamic Interfacial properties play an important roles in gas- liquid and liquid-liquid multiphase process from various industrial applications to understand fundamental phenomena. However, there is no experimental equipment and efficient methods for quantitative and detail investigation of interfacial properties under fast and non-equilibrium dynamic condition due to mobility and refreshing of interface (such as rising bubble). Also existing models accompanied with a lot of simplifications which is not yet validated with a proper experimental data. development of laboratory equipment base on measuring momentary capillary pressure and presenting a new experimental...
