Vortex-ring-induced stratified mixing
(Cambridge University PressJournal of Fluid Mechanics, 2015-09-16)
There is tantalizing evidence that some mechanically driven stratified flows tend towards a state of constant mixing efficiency. We provide insight into the energy balance leading to the constant mixing efficiency and ...
Convective mass transfer from a submerged drop in a thin falling film
(Cambridge University PressJournal of Fluid Mechanics, 2016-01-25)
We study the fluid mechanics of removing a passive tracer contained in small, viscous drops attached to a flat inclined substrate using thin gravity-driven film flows. A convective mass transfer establishes across the ...
The synthesis of di-carboxylate esters using continuous flow vortex fluidics
(Royal Society of ChemistryGreen Chemistry, 2015-12-01)
A vortex fluidic device (VFD) is effective in mediating the synthesis of di-esters at room temperature. Processing under ambient conditions allows for a simple and efficient synthesis, whilst operating under continuous ...
Particle organization after viscous sedimentation in tilted containers
(American Institute of PhysicsPhysics of Fluids, 2016-07-19)
A series of sedimentation experiments and numerical simulations have been conducted
to understand the factors that control the final angle of a static sediment
layer formed by quasi-monodisperse particles settling in an ...
Vortex-ring-induced stratified mixing: Mixing model
(Cambridge University PressJournal of Fluid Mechanics, 2018-02-25)
The study of vortex-ring-induced mixing has been significant for understanding stratified turbulent mixing in the absence of a mean
flow. Renewed interest in this topic has prompted the development of a one-dimensional ...
