Interface: a multidisciplinary centre for flow and molecular dynamics

We are happy to announce Interface Tutorial #2: Date: on 24th of January from 10:00 - 12:00 (with Fika break in between) Location: Faxén (Teknikringen 8, Fluid Physics Laboratory) Title: Multiscale Hybrid Simulation of Micro and Nano Flows Speaker: Professor Duncan Lockerby, University of Warwick (homepage)Description:A range of techniques for hybrid multiscale simulation will be introduced, with illustrative examples Read more about Interface Tutorial #2: Concurrent multiscale methods[…]

Project meeting for the Surfaces and Boiling groups.

Speakers: Lars Wågberg and Tobias Benselfelt from Fiber and Polymer Technology and WWSC. Using the widely spread DLVO theory for systems of interacting charged particles as starting point, they discuss what happens when the relevant length scales approaches the nanometer range, or when the basic assumptions of the DLVO theory are no longer valid.

Speaker: Yasuyuki Takata from Kyushu University Abstract Wettability effect is one of the key parameters that influences boiling characteristics. The present study reveals the role of hydrophobicity in relation to the effect of dissolved air in liquid water. The hydrophobicity works as an excellent nucleation site and, therefore, by making use of biphilic surface the Read more about Seminar: Role of hydrophobicity and dissolved air on onset of nucleate boiling[…]
