Abstract Continuous-flow microchannels are widely employed for synthesizing various materials, including nanoparticles, polymers, and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), to name a few. Microsystem technology allows precise control over reaction parameters, resulting in purer, more uniform, and structurally stable products due to more effective mass transfer manipulation. However, continuous-flow synthesis processes may be accompanied by the emergence of spatial convective structures initiating convective flows. On the one hand, convection can accelerate reactions by intensifying mass transfer. On the other hand, it may lead to non-uniformity in the final product or defects, especially in MOF microcrystal synthesis. The ability… More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract Heat and mass transport through evaporation or drying processes occur in many applications such as food processing, pharmaceutical products, solar-driven vapor generation, textile design, and electronic cigarettes. In this paper, the transport of water from a fresh potato considered as a wet porous media with laminar convective dry air fluid flow governed by Darcy’s law in two-dimensional is highlighted. Governing equations of mass conservation, momentum conservation, multiphase fluid flow in porous media, heat transfer, and transport of participating fluids and gases through evaporation from liquid to gaseous phase are solved simultaneously. In this model, the… More >

Abstract In the current research, a thorough examination unfolds concerning the attributes of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) boundary layer flow and heat transfer inherent to nanoliquids derived from Sisko Al₂O₃-Eg and TiO₂-Eg compositions. Such nanoliquids are subjected to an extending surface. Consideration is duly given to slip boundary conditions, as well as the effects stemming from variable viscosity and variable thermal conductivity. The analytical approach applied involves the application of suitable similarity transformations. These conversions serve to transform the initial set of complex nonlinear partial differential equations into a more manageable assembly of ordinary differential equations. Through the utilization… More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract The ambiguous dynamics associated with heat and mass transfer of invading carbon dioxide in sub-critical and supercritical states, as well as the response of pore-scale resident fluids, play a key role in understanding CO₂ capture and storage (CCUS) and the corresponding phase equilibrium mechanisms. To this end, this paper reveals the transport mechanisms of invading supercritical carbon dioxide (sCO₂) in polluted micromodels using a variant of Lattice-Boltzmann Color Fluid model and descriptive experimental data. The breakthrough time is evaluated by characterizing the displacement velocity, the capillary to pressuredifference ratio, and the transient heat and mass diffusion More >

Abstract In this particular study, we have considered the flow of Casson fluid over inclined flat and cylindrical surfaces, and have conducted a numerical analysis taking into account various physical factors such as mixed convection, stagnation point flow, MHD, thermal radiation, viscous dissipation, heat generation, Joule heating effect, variable thermal conductivity and chemical reaction. Flow over flat plate phenomena is observed aerospace industry, and airflow over solar panels, etc. Cylindrical surfaces are commonly used in several applications interacting with fluids, such as bridges, cables, and buildings, so the study of fluid flow over cylindrical surfaces is… More >

Abstract A computational analysis of magnetized hybrid Darcy-Forchheimer nanofluid flow across a flat surface is presented in this work. For the study of heat and mass transfer aspects viscous dissipation, activation energy, Joule heating, thermal radiation, and heat generation effects are considered. The suspension of nanoparticles singlewalled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) are created by hybrid nanofluids. However, single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) produce nanofluids, with water acting as conventional fluid, respectively. Nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs) that describe the ultimate flow are converted to nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODEs) using appropriate similarity transformation.… More >

Abstract Bubble and slurry bubble column reactors (BCRs/SBCRs) are used for various chemical, biochemical, and petrochemical applications. They have several operational and maintenance advantages, including excellent heat and mass transfer rates, simplicity, and low operating and maintenance cost. Typically, a catalyst is present in addition to biochemical processes where microorganisms are used to produce industrially valuable bio-products. Since most applications involve complicated gas-liquid, gas-liquid-solid, and exothermic processes, the BCR/SBCR must be equipped with heat-exchanging tubes to dissipate heat and control the reactor’s overall performance. In this review, past and very recent experimental and numerical investigations on More >

Abstract In this work, We are looking at the characteristics of micropolar flow in a porous channel that’s being driven by suction or injection. The working of the fluid is described in the flow model. We can reduce the governing nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs) to a model of coupled systems of nonlinear ordinary differential equations using similarity variables (ODEs). In order to obtain the results of a coupled system of nonlinear ODEs, we discuss a method which is known as the differential transform method (DTM). The concern transform is an excellent mathematical tool to obtain More > Graphic Abstract
