Hi
I have tried to simulate a T-junction multiphase flow by OpenFOAM and I face with some difficulties for example droplets are not formed and I don't know whats the problem. I have attached the picture of flow which is formed instead of droplets ,could you please take a look at this and help me .
This is a micro channel which has been made by two lateral channels and one main channel. Blue color is an oil(continuous phase) in main channel and the red one is water (dispersed phase) which is flow in two lateral channels.
It has been simulated with and without contact angel
I am not sure for which phase I should define capillary number .
these are my boundary conditions:
