...C. K. Chen; M. C. Lin This paper investigates the stability of a thin liquid film with condensation effects during spin coating. A generalized nonlinear kinematic model is derived by the long-wave perturbation method to represent the physical system. The weakly nonlinear dynamics of a film flow...

...A.-R. A. Khaled; Abdulhaiy M. Radhwan; S. A. Al-Muaikel Laminar falling film condensations over a vertical plate with an accelerating vapor flow is analyzed in this work in the presence of condensate suction or slip effects at the plate surface. The following assumptions are made: (i) laminar...

...Włodzimierz Wróblewski; Sławomir Dykas; Andrzej Gardzilewicz; Michal Kolovratnik This paper presents the experimental investigations of steam flow with condensation in the blading system of the low-pressure (LP) part of a 360 MW turbine. To this end, special probes were used, which provided flow...

...Akhil Agarwal; Srinivas Garimella This paper presents a multiple flow-regime model for pressure drop during condensation of refrigerant R134a in horizontal microchannels. Condensation pressure drops measured in two circular and six noncircular channels ranging in hydraulic diameter from 0.42 mm...

... the noncavitating flow field, nearly steady sheet cavitation, unsteady cloud cavitation, and finally nearly supercavitating flow is discussed. It is shown that the unsteady features of the flow are correctly predicted by the model, while some subtle arrangements of the two-phase flow during the condensation process...

...Motoaki Kimura; Masahiro Takei; Yoshifuru Saito; Atsushi Saima The present paper describes the application of discrete wavelet transform to the analysis of condensation jets in order to clarify the fluid and heat transfer phenomenon. The condensation jets in the nozzle vicinity are experimentally...

... the gap between two electrodes patterned on a wafer. The dielectrophoretic migration process was studied theoretically and experimentally. Once a tube had been trapped between a pair of electrodes, photoresist was spun over the wafer and developed to form microfluidic interfaces. Liquid condensation...

...Jin Ying-zi; Wang Zu-wen; Bao Gang In order to make sure what factors have an effect on condensation, a mathematical model has been established for the discharging process of a pneumatic system using the fluid grid theory, an analytic equation has been derived to determine the maximum humidity...

...Srinivas Garimella; Jesse D. Killion; John W. Coleman This paper reports the development of an experimentally validated model for pressure drop during intermittent flow of condensing refrigerant R134a in horizontal, noncircular microchannels. Two-phase pressure drops were measured in six...
