Taylor dispersion, or shear-flow enhanceddiffusion, is ubiquitous in various areas involving transport phenomena. Despite numerous dedicated publications following the pioneering work of G.I. Taylor of 1953, none of such publications have appeared in the field of combustion, until recently. In thi…
Energy decomposition analysis method is the one of the theoretical methods for the quantitative study of intermolecular interactions. The method has been widely used in material chemistry, medicinal chemistry, molecular physics and so on.In this report, I introduce the energy decomposition analysi…
The past decades have witnessed a dramatic increase in the power density of combustion- powered energy systems such as advanced light- to heavy-duty engines, gas turbines and rocket engines. With high power density, the thermodynamic environment experienced by the working fluid can easily exceed i…
From milk homogenization to whitecaps in the ocean, fragmentation of bubbles and droplets in turbulence constitutes one of the most basic and practically important processes in turbulent multiphase flows. Most phenomenological models and simulations for this problem were developed based on the cla…
lce crystals are found in clouds below freezing points. They are anisotropic, and over a temperature range, they are shaped like very thin disks. I will discuss the motion of such crystals in a turbulent flow. I will first discuss the alignment of crystals in the flow, and show that at low to mode…
Reacting flows are of great importance in many power engineering applications. A few examples are:Combustion processes, exhaust gas cleaning processes,chemicalenergy storage, etc. They are governed by a complex interplay of chemical reactions, flow and transport processes and can be described math…
The high temperature reactivity of metal/metal oxides are important in a wide variety of industrial applications including solar-thermal hydrogen generation,CO2 sequestering, chemical-looping combustion, and energetic materials, among others. In this seminar I will discuss probing the reactivity o…
We make use of highly resolved simulations to analyse the buoyancy-driven motion of two gas bubbles released in line in a liquid at rest. We first focus on regimes in which the path of an isolated bubble is vertical, and then consider highly inertial regimes in which a single bubble usually rises …
