Numerical studies of shear-thinning droplet formation in a microfluidic T-junction using two-phase level-set method (2017)
Journal Article
Wong, V. L., Loizou, K., Lau, P., Graham, R. S., & Hewakandamby, B. N. (2017). Numerical studies of shear-thinning droplet formation in a microfluidic T-junction using two-phase level-set method. Chemical Engineering Science, 174, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ces.2017.08.027

A conservative level-set method (LSM) embedded in a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation provides a useful approach for the studying the physics and underlying mechanism in two-phase flow. Detailed two-dimensional (2D) computational microflu... Read More about Numerical studies of shear-thinning droplet formation in a microfluidic T-junction using two-phase level-set method.

Cellulosic-crystals as a fumed-silica substitute in vacuum insulated panel technology used in building construction and retrofit applications (2017)
Journal Article
Tetlow, D., Simon, L. D., Liew, S. Y., Hewakandamby, B. N., Mack, D., Thielemans, W., & Riffat, S. (2017). Cellulosic-crystals as a fumed-silica substitute in vacuum insulated panel technology used in building construction and retrofit applications. Energy and Buildings, 156, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.enbuild.2017.08.058

This article investigates impact of substituting fumed silica with a cellulosic-crystal innovation in a commercial Vacuum Insulated Panel (VIP) core. High building performance demands have attracted VIP technology investment to increase production ca...
