Journal ArticleDOI
A Structural and Fluid-Flow Model for Mechanically Driven Peristaltic Pumping With Application to Therapeutic Drug Delivery
Journal ArticleDOI
Friction measurement method and modeling of a metallic rod sliding through a flexible polymer tube
TL;DR: In this article, a tensile testing machine is used for the measurement of sliding friction between a stationary flexible polymeric sleeve and a rigid metallic rod that moves longitudinally within the sleeve.

Book ChapterDOI
Enhancement of Jet Impingement Heat Transfer by Means of Jet Axis Switching
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used numerical simulation to establish the heat transfer characteristics of a fluid jet impinging on a target surface, and demonstrated that a fluid mechanic phenomenon designated as jet axis switching has a tremendous effect on both the magnitude and surface distribution of the impingement heat transfer coefficient.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mass Transfer and Particle Separation by Swirl-Chamber and Swirl-Tube Devices
TL;DR: In this article, a numerical simulation model was used to predict particle separation and concomitant mass transfer by means of a swirl chamber or swirl tube, where the particle-laden flow was ducted through a straight pipe to a three-bladed swirl generator from which the emergent swirling flow entered a settling chamber where the centrifugal forces propelled the particles toward the chamber walls.
