This article reviews existing methods for the characterisation of mixing and flow in
microchannels, micromixers and microreactors. In particular, it analyses the current …

This monograph provides a detailed review of the state-of-the-art theoretical (analytical and
numerical) methodologies for the analysis of dissipative wave dynamics and pattern …

Free falling water film flow is widely applied in many industrial fields, including the PCCS
(Passive Containment Cooling System) of the Generation Ⅲ nuclear power plant. This paper …

A falling film of a weakly viscoelastic liquid (Walters' liquid B′′) is studied in detail for low
to moderate values of the Reynolds number. A linear stability analysis within the framework …

In a previous publication, Dietze, Leefken & Kneer (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 595, 2008, p. 435)
showed that flow separation takes place in the capillary wave region of falling liquid films …

The characteristics of thin liquid films flowing down a uniformly heated and inclined plane
are investigated, with heat transfer across the wavy films quantified using up-to-date optical …

We present results from the simultaneous application of planar laser-induced fluorescence
(PLIF), particle image velocimetry (PIV) and particle tracking velocimetry (PTV) …

This work examined the effects of burst or pulsed flows on the cleaning of tank surfaces
soiled by egg yolk, under alkaline conditions, using a single axis rotary spray head. Firstly …

We consider axisymmetric traveling waves propagating on the gravity-driven flow of a liquid
down a vertical fiber. Our starting point is the two-equation model for the flow derived in the …

We derive a new model for thin viscous liquid films down an inclined plane. With an
asymptotic expansion in the long-wave limit, the Navier–Stokes equations and the work …
