An Energy-Based Interface Detection Method for Phase Change Processes in Nanoconfinements
Mustafa Ozsipahi, Yigit Akkus, Chinh Thanh Nguyen +1
An energy-based liquid-vapor interface detection method is presented using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of liquid menisci confined between two parallel plates under equilibr…
A First Look at the Performance of Nano-Grooved Heat Pipes
Yigit Akkus, Chinh Thanh Nguyen, Alper Tunga Celebi +1
Passive thermal spreaders utilizing liquid/vapor phase-change mechanism such as heat pipes, have been widely used in the macro-scale thermal management of electronic devices for ma…
Atomic Scale Interfacial Transport at an Extended Evaporating Meniscus
Yigit Akkus, Anil Koklu, Ali Beskok
Recent developments in fabrication techniques enabled the production of nano- and angstrom-scale conduits. While scientists are able to conduct experimental studies to demonstrate…
Molecular Diffusion Replaces Capillary Pumping in Phase-Change Driven Nanopumps
Yigit Akkus, Ali Beskok
Nano-scale fluid transport has vast applications spanning from water desalination to biotechnology [1,2]. It is possible to pump fluids in nano-conduits using pressure gradients [3…
