Mass effect on the soret coefficient in n-alkane mixtures
(AIP Publishing, 2014)
We have determined the Soret coefficient of different equimolar and non equimolar n-alkane mixtures from measurements of the molecular diffusion and thermal diffusion coefficients. It is shown that equimolar mixtures behave ...
Optimizing Polymer Lab-on-Chip Platforms for Ultrasonic Manipulation: Influence of the Substrate
(MDPI, 2015)
The choice of substrate material in a chip that combines ultrasound with microfluidics for handling biological and synthetic microparticles can have a profound effect on the performance of the device. This is due to the ...
CFD Analysis of can Heating Process
(Tech Science Press, 2022)
In this work, the thermal sterilization process in food cans has been analyzed using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). STAR CCM+ software has been used in order to develop a numerical model to study the heating process ...
Fe nanoparticles produced by electric explosion of wire for new generation of magneto-rheological fluids
(IOP Publishing, 2018)
Iron magnetic nanoparticles were produced by the technique of the electric explosion of a wire (EEW). The major crystalline phase (95 ± 1%) was α-Fe with lattice parameter a = 0.2863(3) nm. The size of the coherent diffraction ...
Numerical analysis of different mass transfer models for falling film absorbers
(Elsevier Ltd., 2022)
Different methodologies have been used in the literature to determine the absorbed vapour mass flux in falling film absorbers. So far, however, there has been little discussion about the impact of different ap- proaches ...
Design of a Radiant Heat Capturing Device for Steel Mills
(International Centre for Sustainable Development of Energy, Water and Environment Systems, 2021)
This paper approaches the energy transition towards decarbonization and lower primary energy use in the steel and glass industries through the exploitation of radiant waste heat. In contrast with exhaust gases heat recovery, ...
Analysis of thermophoresis for separation of polystyrene microparticles in microfluidic devices
(Elsevier, 2022)
We analysed the thermodiffusion phenomenon both numerically and experimentally for size-based separation of polystyrene microparticles. For model validation, we followed previously published numerical studies using ANSYS ...
Diffusion in liquid mixtures
(Springer Nature, 2023)
The understanding of transport and mixing in fluids in the presence and in the absence of external fields and reactions represents a challenging topic of strategic relevance for space exploration. Indeed, mixing and transport ...
Influence of nanoparticles morphology in magnetic fluids
(Elsevier, 2024)
In this work magnetic fluids at two different volume concentrations (5 % and 10 %) of magnetite nanoparticles of different morphologies and sizes (octahedral, 38 ± 5 nm; truncated octahedral, 10 ± 1 nm; rod-like, 95 nm x ...
Non-invasive Thermohydrodynamic Approach for Fast Cell Manipulation at the Microscale
(Springer, 2024)
Thermal gradients have emerged as a promising technique for manipulating and sorting biological material at the microscale, holding considerable potential in lab-on-a-chip technology. Herein, we propose a non-invasive ...
