The micro-nanometer sized droplets have tremendous applications in bio-diagnostics, polymerization processes etc. In this work, we numerically investigate the droplet formation process of silicone oil in aqueous solution in a MFF device. A conservative level-set method is adopted to ... Read More
Experiments have been conducted with water at velocities from ~0.015-0.77 m/s to determine the permeability of 50 mm thick commercially available 30, 40, 50 and 80 Pores Per Inch (PPI) Ceramic Foam Filters (CFF) used for liquid metal filtration. Measurements were made using two different ... Read More
It is frequently necessary to electrically heat gases; a convenient geometry is the familiar tube-in-shell heat exchanger, where the tube side is modified for electrical heater-rods, and the baffled shell side contains the flowing gas, as indicated in Fig. 1. However, this modification ... Read More
Microfluidic devices and lab-on-a-chip (LOC) require the ability to transport or pump reagents or reaction products, the ability to effectively mix small volumes of fluid, and provide direct data display. Surface acoustic wave (SAW) driven acoustic streaming generated by a piezoelectric ... Read More
The Direct Methanol Fuel Cell (DMFC) working is dependent on the concentration of methanol in water before it is introduced in the anode. DMFC has a high energy density when generating electrical power from fuel, and is an attractive power source for portable devices. A fundamental ... Read More
Introduction Fluid flow patterns in research or process-scale equipment where a fluid is contained between concentric rotating cylinders in the absence of bulk axial flow has received notable attention in the field of fluid mechanics. Annular flows occur in many practical applications, ... Read More
Introduction Numerical modeling of melt-casting is becoming a popular tool for the energetic materials and explosives industry. Compared to traditional metal casting, the cooling cycle for explosive melts is significantly longer because of their high Prandtl numbers [1]. Improving the ... Read More
In the Andean region of Southern Peru, poverty and climate are extreme: at 4000mt asl, insolation is among the highest in the world but the temperature varies more than 30 degrees between day and night. At the community of Livitaca (Cuzco), the association “Ingegneria Senza Frontiere” is ... Read More
Geothermal heat production from deep reservoirs (5000-7000 m) is currently examined, not only in Germany. Our reference set-up consists of two pipes within a single borehole: one for pumping. We examine a design, where a single borehole splits into two legs at a certain depth. The two ... Read More
Magnetorheological Finishing (MRF) is one of the precision finishing processes in which magnetic field is used to drive abrading forces for Finishing 2D and complex 3D surfaces. In this paper, Ball End Magnetorheological Finishing (BEMRF) has been analyzed for fluid behaviors under the ... Read More
