Abstract

Within the approximation of Stokes hydrodynamics, several problems of a steady-state flow over a two-dimensional cavity containing a gas bubble are solved using the method of boundary integral equations. In contrast to previous publications, the method developed makes it possible to study the situation in which the cavity is only partially filled with gas, and the edges of a curved phase interface do not coincide with the cavity corners. Using periodic boundary conditions for the velocity, the flows with pure-shear and parabolic velocity profiles, and also the flow over a group of cavities were considered. The aim of the study was to calculate the effective (average) slip velocity over a microcavity, as applied to flows near textured superhydrophobic surfaces. A parametric numerical study of the effective velocity slip as a function of the radius of curvature of the interface and the position of the interface relative to the cavity boundaries was performed. The accuracy of the method is validated by the calculations of a number of limiting flows over a cavity, for which a quantitative agreement with the results known in the literature is demonstrated.
