(MS16) Fluid Interactions with Thin Porous Media

Oral Presentation

Micro-algae are being considered increasingly as an economic source for the sustainable production of biodiesel, food (additives), pharmaceuticals and nutraceuticals. However, the excessive cost and low efficiency of current microalgal harvesting processes limit the potential large-scale uptake of microalgal farming to transform industrial applications. Absence of universal separation...

(MS16) Fluid Interactions with Thin Porous Media

Oral Presentation

Understanding the evaporation and absorption of surfactant-laden droplets on porous media is challenging and important for many industrial applications, for example, inkjet printing. The evaporation of droplets containing dispersed solid particles on a solid surface has aroused much interest and has extensively been studied. The non-uniform evaporation pattern, resulting after evaporation, is...

278. Unveiling moisture transport mechanisms (vapor vs. bound water) in cellulosic materials: application to droplet absorption

(MS16) Fluid Interactions with Thin Porous Media

Oral Presentation

Thin cellulosic materials such as natural textiles, paper, or bio-based walls, exhibit a remarkable capacity to absorb humidity from the environment through "bound water" sorption within nanopores, constituting up to 30% of their dry mass [1]. Understanding the mechanisms of induced water transfers is crucial for advancing industrial processes and sustainable practices across various fields,...

986. The effect of graphene and porous coatings on flow boiling in flat microchannels under intense localized heating

Dr Dmitry Zaitsev (Kutateladze Institute of Thermophysics SB RAS, Novosibirsk, 630090, Russia)

(MS16) Fluid Interactions with Thin Porous Media

Oral Presentation

Subcooled water flow boiling experiments were carried out in flat mini- and microchannels under intense local heating (up to 1600 W/cm2) for different heater surface morphology. Two different heaters were used: 10x10 mm2 heater and 3x3 mm2 heater. In total, 4 different types of heating surfaces were used: 1) smooth copper, 2) rough copper, 3) porous coating, 4) graphene coating. The structure...
