Nanofluid transport in Taylor bubble flows

Fahad Al-Gburi, Faysal Khaleel, Yulong Ding +1

Taylor bubble flows with nanoparticle suspensions are regularly encountered in non-isothermal chemical synthesis and microfluidics. Despite this, a complete mechanistic insight int…

Hierarchical macro-nanoporous metals for leakage-free high-thermal conductivity shape-stabilized phase change materials

Yaroslav Grosu, Yanqi Zhao, Alberto Giacomello +6

Impregnation of Phase Change Materials (PCMs) into a porous medium is a promising way to stabilize their shape and improve thermal conductivity which are essential for thermal ener…

Aggregation and settling in aqueous polydisperse alumina nanoparticle suspensions

Sanjeeva Witharana, Chris Hodges, Dan Xu +2

Nanoparticle suspensions (also called nanofluids) are often polydisperse and tend to settle with time. Settling kinetics in these systems are known to be complex and hence challeng…
