  • Micro-bubble dynamics in two-phase flow through a micro-channel

    Creator:
    Shepard, Thomas G.
    Abstract:
    An experimental investigation into the behavior of micro-bubbles flowing through a micro-channel has been conducted. Experiments were performed within a rectangular micro-channel with dimensions of 5 cm x 13.2 mm x l30 jim. Bubbles were generated in an electrolyte solution by electrolysis at the lower channel wall near the inlet....
