A Novel Continuous Drop-Wise Condensation Technology for Improved Heat and Mass Transfer Efficiencies
Ali Alshehri, Jonathan P. Rothstein, H. Pirouz Kavehpour
Drop-wise condensation (DWC) has been the focus of scientific research in vapor condensation technologies since the 20th century. Improvement of condensation rate in DWC is limited…
Oscillations of a cantilevered micro beam driven by a viscoelastic flow instability
Anita A. Dey, Yahya Modarres-Sadeghi, Anke Lindner +1
The interaction of flexible structures with viscoelastic flows can result in very rich dynamics. In this paper, we present the results of the interactions between the flow of a vis…
Effects of particle stiffness on the extensional rheology of model rod-like nanoparticle suspensions
Christian Lang, Jan Hendricks, Zhenkun Zhang +5
The linear and nonlinear rheological behavior of two rod-like particle suspensions as a function of concentration is studied using small amplitude oscillatory shear, steady shear a…
Effect of a surface tension gradient on the slip flow along a superhydrophobic air-water interface
Dong Song, Baowei Song, Haibao Hu +4
Superhydrophobic surfaces have been shown to produce significant drag reduction in both laminar and turbulent flows by introducing an apparent slip velocity along an air-water inte…
