Thermal performance enhancement in a double tube heat exchanger using combination of bubble injection and helical coiled wire insert

open access: yesCase Studies in Thermal Engineering, 2023
In this experimental study, a novel approach combining a helical coiled wire (HCW) turbulator and bubble injection (BI) method has been employed to synergistically improve the heat transfer efficiency of double tube heat exchanger. The thermal-frictional

Impact of erythrocytes properties on blood surface tension

open access: yesAIMS Biophysics, 2019
Surface tension is a physical phenomenon that occurs as a result of the presence of a cohesive force between molecules of the liquid. Many biological processes depend on wetting and interfacial tension.

Ultrasoft Iontronics: Stretchable Diodes Enabled by Ionically Conductive Bottlebrush Elastomers

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work introduces a solvent‐free, ultrasoft, and stretchable ionic diode based on oppositely charged bottlebrush elastomers (BBEs). The BBE diode exhibits an ultralow Young's modulus (<23 kPa), a high rectification ratio of 46, and stretchability over 400%.

Microplate Active Migration Emerging From Light‐Induced Phase Transitions in a Nematic Liquid Crystal

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A quasi‐2D, light‐absorbing platelet embedded in a thermotropic nematic liquid crystal is activated with light irradiation. Depending on the light intensity, the platelet induces a localized nematic‐isotropic phase transition that triggers the motion. Using different confinements, the platelet can glide in a 2D regime or tilt and glide in a 3D regime ...
