This dissertation presents an experimental investigation and numerical simulations of fluid flow and heat transfer in microchannels to study the effects of surface-dominated, non-continuum, multi-scale and multi-physics effects. The experimental study is on the effects of rib-pa…

Evaluating interwell connectivities can provide important information for reservoir management by identifying flow conduits, barriers, and injection imbalances. Injection and production rates contain connectivity information and a number of methods have been proposed to predict …
The laminar flow of viscoplastic fluids in eccentric annuli between two pipes has been investigated numerically. Three distinct flow conditions have been modeled, namely, inner and outer pipe is fixed, when the flow is due to imposed axial pressure gradient, inner pipe having an…
Currently environmental concerns are driving internal combustion engine manufacturers to seek greater fuel efficiency, more refinement and lower emissions. Cyclic variation is a known obstacle to achieving the greatest potential against these goals and therefore an understanding…
