Retraction of a liquid ligament in viscous and inertial regimes: research at IFPEN revisits theoretical predictions
Having concluded that the Taylor-Culick velocity was only valid to evaluate the characteristic retraction time for a liquid in an inertial regime, researchers at IFPEN have proposed a velocity that is valid in a viscous regime.

The development of soot particles now better understood
Research conducted at IFPEN has established a reaction mechanism to describe a key step: the dimerization reaction. A new methodology now makes it possible to better predict the genesis of soot particles, helping to limit the associated health and environmental effects.

Foam rheology in porous media
For processes involving gas injection, such as enhanced oil recovery (EOR a) and CO 2 storage operations, the use of foam makes it easier to control gas mobility. Improving these processes requires
