Evaporation, pervaporation, and forward osmosis are processes leading to a mass transfer
of solvent across an interface: gas/liquid for evaporation and solid/liquid (membrane) for …

Numerical study has been conducted to study the fluid convection inside sessile and
pendant evaporating droplets of aqueous NaCl solution placed on a superhydrophobic …

A clear back flow was observed in the thin unidirectional drying cell of a colloidal
suspension. Flow around the colloidal-particle packing front was more complex than …

Fluid convection during protein crystallization plays a significant role in determining the
crystal growth rate and crystal quality. Crystals grown in reduced flow strength gives a …

We experimentally study the fluid convection inside a condensing droplet of aqueous NaCl
solution and compare it with that of an evaporating droplet. The droplets are sandwiched …

We experimentally investigated the effect of a neighboring liquid droplet on fluid convection
inside a liquid droplet of aqueous solution present inside a microchannel using the …

We theoretically investigate the role of solutal free convection on the diffusion of a buoyant
solute at the microfluidic scales,≃ 5–500 μ m. We first consider a horizontal microfluidic slit …

The chapter aims to introduce the computational fluid dynamics (CFD). A review was
provided, outlining its development and applications on chemical engineering and …

It is usually expected that surface tension driven flow dominates at small scales. Evaporation
from the meniscus of ethanol/methanol confined in a capillary induces Marangoni …

Recent experiments (K. Inoue and S. Inasawa, RSC Adv., 2020, 10, 15763–15768) and
simulations (J.-B. Salmon and F. Doumenc, Phys. Rev. Fluids, 2020, 5, 024201) …
