  • Numerical study of flow maldistribution in microchannels using fully resolved simulation

    Creator:
    Martin, Mathieu Georges Charles
    Abstract:
    This thesis addresses numerical simulation of flow maldistribution in microchannels. Microchannels are often associated with two phase-flows which can generate many problems such as plugging the channel or perturbing the flow. In this study we have used CFD and fully resolved technique to simulate what would happen in the case...
