A magnetic fluid based thermal connector for avionics chassis
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2013)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] The University of Missouri, Columbia, has participated in the DARPA/ONR sponsored RevCon Challenge to demonstrate an innovative field reversible thermal ...
Modeling of droplet and bubble detachment assisted by electrowetting-on-dielectric (EWOD)
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2017)
This work reports both theoretically and numerically a novel mechanism of electrowetting-induced jumping droplet and bubble detachment. Six different chapters were explored in this work. Chapter 1 gives the overview of the ...
Two-phase flow over flooded micro-pillar structures with engineered wettability
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2013)
Flooding caused by excessive droplet feeding on heat dissipation areas periodically occurs for droplet-based thermal management. The conventional highly wettable texture of target surfaces, which is designed for thin film ...
Saddle point of attachment in horseshoe vortex system
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2015)
Laminar juncture flow has been well studied experimentally and numerically in recent years. New topology upstream in terms of saddle point of attachment has been investigated by both approaches. In this work, the obstacle ...
Flooded two-phase flow dynamics and heat transfer with engineered wettability on microstructured surfaces
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2015)
Due to excessive droplet feeding, a period of flooding occurs as part of a typical droplet based thermal management cycle. The conventional superhydrophilic surface, which is designed for thin film evaporation because of ...
