Black-oil simulators are commonly used in petroleum reservoir engineering for the prediction of oil production, especially during the earlier stages of oil-field exploitation, while also serving to guide pressure maintenance strategies in the longer term. Such models account for fluid ... Read More
We have chosen droplet-based microfluidics as a platform for single cell analysis using the encapsulation technique. For this, we study the water in oil droplets formation inside a 2D microfluidic flow focusing geometry designed. We have performed Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) ... Read More
Resin Transfer Molding (RTM), is a closed mold reinforced polymer composite molding process where the resin is infused under a pressure gradient. The liquid resin is infused through the dry preform and displaces air to saturate the preform. One of the governing parameters in an RTM ... Read More
The nanofluid is a class of fluids with high thermal conductivity and non-Newtonian flow behaviors. In this work, we present numerical simulations of spreading characteristics for nanofluids droplet impinging on the solid surface which is of great importance in a number of applications ...

Impact of human activities on the climate is evident, and the recent anthropogenic production and discharge of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere is highest in history. The current climate change have had worldwide influence on human and natural systems for example; global warming, ... Read More
In-situ electrical heating technologies are among the most recent technologies used for bitumen recovery from tar sand and oil shale. These technologies have limited environmental impact because there is little disturbance of the land, and water and solvents are not used. Two-phase ... Read More
CO2 capture and storage constitutes a promising solution to control and reduce these emissions. Wellbore integrity is a key challenge to ensure long term safety and for public acceptance. For this objective, a two-phase flow model in porous media based on Darcy’s law has been proposed to ... Read More
The efficiency and environmental impact of oil production become a principal challenge of energy producing companies. The improvement of existing and development of novel methods are often feasible within either a “new” physical framework (from the viewpoint of oil reservoir ... Read More
Droplet generation in microfluidics is a powerful technique to get monodispersed emulsions and droplet size manipulation can be very advantageous in a wide area of applications such as pharmaceuticals, drug delivery, food products, chemical synthesis and biomedical applications. In the ... Read More
A beneficial method for transporting highly viscous hydrocarbons (e.g. heavy oil and bitumen) through a pipeline is known as Lubricated Pipe Flow (LPF). A major challenge for this technology is flow instability caused by the formation of a wall-coating of oil or the thinning and/or loss ... Read More
