1. Numerical study of flow boiling in micro/mini channels
Abstract : Boiling phenomena in micro scale has emerged as an interesting topic due to its complexity and increasing usage in micro electronic and mechanical systems (MEMS). Experimental visualization has discovered five main flow regimes: nucleate boiling, isolated bubbles, confine bubbly flow, elongated bubbly (or slug) flow, and annular flow. READ MORE

2. Phase-changing flows: numerical methods and fully resolved simulations
Abstract : Flows with evaporation and boiling are abundant in different contexts, such as geophysics, the biomedical sectors, and industrial applications. Spray combustion, boiling bubble flows, oceanic sprays, formation and evolution of clouds, spreading of infectious diseases are all relevant examples where a deeper understanding of phase-changing flows is of great importance.

3. Numerical study of interface dynamics and phase change
Abstract : Multi-phase fluid flows are ubiquitous in natural phenomena and different industrial applications such as in food industry, the medical sector, heat exchangers, power generation systems, to name a few. Understanding the underlining physics of multi-phase flows proved to be a challenging task due to presence of sophisticated dynamics, including the evolution of the interface between any pair of phases, thermodynamics and possibility of phase change, interactions between the fluid phases and a solid phase, etc. READ MORE

4. Phase change with stress effects and flow
Abstract : In this thesis two kinds of phase change i.e., solid state phase transformation in steels and solid-to-liquid phase transformation in paraffin, have been modeled and numerically simulated. READ MORE

5. Numerical frameworks for small-scale bubble dynamics
Abstract : Designing efficient bubbly flow systems requires the prediction of the dynamics of the bubbles, the liquid and how the gas and liquid phases interact. Currently, the complex dynamics in bubbly flows are not yet fully explained, and we rely on incomplete models in our numerical methods. READ MORE
