Phase inversion (chemistry) Phase inversion (chemistry) Phase inversion is a chemical phenomenon exploited in the fabrication of artificial membranes. It is performed by removing the solvent from a liquid-polymer solution, leaving a porous, solid membrane. Phase inversion is a common method to form filtration membranes, which are typically formed using artificial polymers. The method of phase inversion is highly dependent on the type of polymer used and the solvent used to dissolve the polymer. Phase inversion can be carried out through one of four typical methods: The rate at which phase inversion occurs and the characteristics of the resulting membrane are dependent on
Cavitation modelling on the bubbles. Discrete bubble models, e.g. the Rayleigh-Plesset, Gilmore and Keller-Miksis, describe the relation between the external pressure, bubble radius and the velocity and acceleration of the bubble wall. Two-phase modeling is the modelling of the two phases, as in a free surface code. Two common types of two phase models are "homogeneous mixture models" and "sharp interface models". The difference between both the models is in the treatment of the contents of cells containing both phases. Most recent cavitation modelling efforts have used homogeneous mixture models, in which the contents of individual cells are assumed to be uniform.
