• Microfluidic separation processes using the thermodiffusion effect 

      Martin-Mayor, Alain; Bou-Ali, M. Mounir; Aginagalde, Maialen; Urteaga, Pedro (Elsevier B.V., 2018)
      The numerical and experimental results presented in this work show that a relatively small temperature gradient (5K), has great potential to generate a separation in interesting mixtures for biological purpose. In fact, ...
    • Stability analysis under thermogravitational effect 

      Bou-Ali, M. Mounir (Elsevier Masson SAS, 2020)
      In the present work, an interferometric unsteady analysis of the thermogravitational technique was for the first time attempted in a paralelepipedic microcolumn using binary mixtures with negative Soret coefficients. In ...
    • Thermophoresis as a technique for separation of nanoparticle species in microfluidic devices 

      Errarte, Ane; Martin-Mayor, Alain; Aginagalde, Maialen; Bou-Ali, M. Mounir (Elsevier Masson SAS, 2020)
      This paper presents numerical studies of thermophoresis approach for separation of nanoparticles in liquid media. We simulated the thermophoresis process to test it as a method of separation of particles in suspension. At ...
