Application of buckling behavior to evaluate and control shape variation in high-temperature microlamination

Creator:: Wattanutchariya, Wassanai
Abstract:: The miniaturization of energy, chemical and biological systems for distributed and portable applications, known as process intensification, is realized by the enhancement in heat and mass transfer performance within high surface-to-volume ratio microchannels. Fabrication of devices for process intensification is achieved in part by microlamination techniques. These techniques consist of...

Cooling rate limitations in the diffusion bonding of large microchannel arrays

Creator:: Lingam, Gopi K.
Abstract:: A significant barrier to the diffusion bonding of large (i.e. 600 mm) microchannel devices is the large capital investment required to setup production. This large capital investment extends from long heating and cooling cycles leading to poor production capacities. Empirical studies in industry have shown that cooling rate is limited...

Development of a passive micro-ball valve

Creator:: Wangwatcharakul, Worawut
Abstract:: A novel design, material, and fabrication method are presented to fabricate a passive micro-ball valve. Microvalves are critical components in microflow control devices used to control the fluid flows in microchannels. These microflow control devices can be integrated with microsensors to form micro analysis systems. Glass/silicon-based fabrication is complicated and...

Development of a process for fabricating high-aspect-ratio, meso-scale geometries in stainless steel

Creator:: Walker, Benjamin A.
Abstract:: Miniature energy and chemical systems (MECS) are miniature thermal, fluid, and chemical devices in the mesoscale size range between a sugar cube and a human fist. MECS take advantage of improved rates of mass and heat transfer that have been observed at the microscale. There are many potential applications for...

Development of a radial microlamination architecture for cylindrical microchannel arrays

Creator:: Vlieg, James H.
Abstract:: Microchannel arrays are being developed across a wide spectrum of microfluidic applications including blood processing, fuel cells and thermal management among many others. Typical arrays are based on a flat laminated architecture produced in a vacuum hot press (VHP) through solid-state diffusion bonding. Due to the cylindrical nature of certain...

Fabrication of precipitation-hardened aluminum microchannel cooling plates for adsorption-based hydrogen storage systems

Creator:: Pawar, Supriya V.
Abstract:: The need for clean and renewable fuel such as hydrogen is driven by a growing worldwide population and increasing air pollution from fossil fuels. One of the major barriers for the use of hydrogen in automotive industry is the storage of hydrogen. Physisorption is the most promising storage technique due...

Laser keyhole welding for microlaminating a high-temperature microchannel array

Creator:: Lajevardi, Babak
Abstract:: Microchannel process technology (MPT) components are chemical unit operations which exploit highly-parallel arrays of microchannels to process large fluid volumes for portable and distributed applications. Microchannel heat exchangers (MCHXs) have demonstrated 3 to 5 times higher heat fluxes when compared to conventional heat exchangers resulting in proportionate reductions in size...

Mechanical characterization and modeling of solder joints for the secondary side reflow of large IC packages

Creator:: Yutzie, James D.
Abstract:: As the drive continues to reduce the size of Printed Wiring Assemblies (PWAs), improve performance of electronic assemblies, and reduce costs of these products, reliable secondary (bottom) side reflow operations must be developed. Attaching Surface Mount Technology (SMT) components to the secondary side of a Printed Circuit Board (PCB) is...

Modeling and development of fabrication method for embedding membrane based microvalve in bulk microfluidic device

Creator:: Abhinkar, Bindiya S.
Abstract:: PDMS membrane-based microvalves are becoming increasingly more important for the control of fluid flow within MECS applications such as microreactors used to synthesize nanoparticles and biological macromolecules. The motivation for pursuing PDMS membrane-based microvalves is for implementing a plug flow microreactor to simulate slug flow yielding a narrower residence time...

Nanoparticle-assisted diffusion brazing of metal microchannel arrays : nanoparticle synthesis, deposition, and characterization

Creator:: Eluri, Ravindranadh T.
Abstract:: Microchannel process technology (MPT) offers several advantages to the field of nanomanufacturing: 1) improved process control over very short time intervals owing to shorter diffusional distances; and 2) reduced reactor size due to high surface area to volume ratios and enhanced heat and mass transfer. The objective of this thesis...
