Emergent Flows, Irreversibility and Unsteady Effects in Asymmetric and Looped Geometries
Quynh M Nguyen
Fluid transport networks are important in many natural settings and engineering applications, from animal cardiovascular and respiratory systems to plant vasculature to plumbing ne…
Tesla's fluidic diode and the electronic-hydraulic analogy
Quynh M. Nguyen, Dean Huang, Evan Zauderer +3
Reasoning by analogy is powerful in physics for students and researchers alike, a case in point being electronics and hydraulics as analogous studies of electric currents and fluid…
Flow rectification in loopy network models of bird lungs
Quynh M. Nguyen, Anand U. Oza, Joanna Abouezzi +4
We demonstrate flow rectification, valveless pumping or AC-to-DC conversion in macroscale fluidic networks with loops. Inspired by the unique anatomy of bird lungs and the phenomen…
Early turbulence and pulsatile flows enhance diodicity of Tesla's macrofluidic valve
Quynh M. Nguyen, Joanna Abouezzi, Leif Ristroph
Microfluidics has enabled a revolution in the manipulation of small volumes of fluids. Controlling flows at larger scales and faster rates, or , has broad a…
