A Computational Study to Overcome Mass Transfer Limit in Microfluidic Fuel Cell

Wilburn T., Zhou D., California State Univeristy, Sacramento, US

Membraneless micro fuel cells shown in Fig. 1[1] have eliminated some technical issues related to membrane-based fuel cells such as dry-out at anode and flooding at cathode. However, performance of membraneless micro fuel cell using [...]

Experimental and Numerical Studies of Droplet and Particle Formation in Electrohydrodynamic Atomization

Hua J., Lim L.K., Wang C-H, Institute of High Performance Computing, SG

Electrohydrodynamic Atomization (EHDA) is a method to disperse liquid jet into micro- droplets where an electrical field is applied to control the breakup characteristic of the liquid jet. Recent studies show that EHDA method is [...]

High-Fidelity and Reduced Models of Synthetic Microjets

Przekwas A.J., Turowski M., Chen Z., CFD Research Corporation, US

Microfabricated arrays of synthetic jets are being explored for applications in aerodynamic flow control, in cooling of electronic packages, and in mixing in microchemical reactors. Computational simulation of coupled unsteady fluid mechanics and electromechanical actuation [...]
