Creator:: Sharma, Nitin
Abstract:: Micro Energy and Chemical Systems (MIECS) are multi-scale microsystems, which rely on embedded nano and micro-scale features to process bulk amounts of fluid in applications ranging from man-portable heat pumps, distributed fuel reforming and insitu waste remediation. Microlamination is a well-known process architecture for fabricating the highly parallel, high aspect...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis

Creator:: Kawula, Steven P.
Abstract:: Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems represent nearly half of building energy usage in the United States. Recent building regulations requiring increased air turnover within buildings will result in even greater air conditioning usage. To alleviate these concerns, membrane-based heat-and-moisture exchangers known as energy recovery ventilators have been developed to...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis
Full Text:: costs of channel lamination, surface mount technology (SMT) has been explored to shorten cycle times

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...

Creator:: Jones, Hyrum E.
Abstract:: Polymer samples of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and a PTFE-glass weave (RF- 35P) are exposed to low pressure, non-equilibrium glow discharge plasmas for enhanced wettability as measured by static contact angles. Plasma treatments are performed in two parallel plate RF plasma systems, a downstream microwave plasma and a barrel etcher using feed...

Full Text:: feed gases composed of H2, N2, Ar, He, and 02. Surface analysis of the topography and chemical

Creator:: David, Michele
Abstract:: Boiling heat transfer is studied for its ability to dissipate high fluxes and achieve heat transfer coefficients two orders of magnitude greater than single-phase heat transfer systems. Heater surface enhancement with increased surface area, varied geometry, wettability contrast and micro/nano-structures can further enhance boiling heat transfer performance through bubble nucleation...

Creator:: Alemu, Yagenetfere A.
Abstract:: The need for less toxic quantum dots (QDs) has led to a significant number of investigations related to copper indium sulfide (CIS) QDs. Lower toxicity and broad band absorbance width makes CIS QDs appealing for light emitting diodes (LEDs), lasers, sensors, bio-imaging, solar cells, and computing. The optical and electronic...

Creator:: Bunn, Malachi D.
Abstract:: Marine biofouling is a major problem in many industries. Shipping has been afflicted with reduced vessel speed and hindered maneuverability due to organisms attaching since the dawn of sailing. To date, the primary method developed to prevent fouling is the application of biocide laden coatings with various release mechanisms. Mass...
