Study Of Liquid Fuel Film Transport And Its Effect On Cold Start Hydrocarbon Emissions In A Carburetted Engine
(2013-01-31)
The present work is concerned with fundamental studies on the liquid fuel transport in the intake manifold of small carburetted engines. This work is motivated by the need for development of technologies to meet the stringent ...
Analysis Of Squeeze Film Damping In Microdevices
(2012-12-12)
There are various energy dissipation mechanisms that affect the dynamic response of microstructures used in MEMS devices. A cumulative effect of such losses is captured by an important characteristic of the structure called ...
Numerical Simulations Of Two-Phase Reacting Flow In A Cavity Combustor
(2013-05-28)
In the present work, two phase reacting flow in a single cavity Trapped Vortex Combustor (TVC) is studied at atmospheric conditions. KIVA-3V, numerical program for simulating three dimensional compressible reacting flows ...
Study Of The Effect Of Elasticity Of The Added Mass In Mass Sensing Using Resonant Peak Shift Technique
(2013-05-21)
Micromachined biosensors are used in chemical and biological applications. A biosensor which uses mass based transduction is called a mass sensor. Mass sensors are used to detect extremely small mass of biomolecules such ...
Modeling Of Transport Phenomena In Arteries
(2013-05-23)
Atherosclerosis is an arterial disease that occurs due to the build-up of lipids, cholesterol and other substances in the arterial wall, collectively called plaque, leading to narrowing of the vessel lumen and, in time, ...
1-D And 3-D Analysis Of Multi-Port Muffler Configurations With Emphasis On Elliptical Cylindrical Chamber
(2013-08-28)
The flow-reversal elliptical cylindrical end chamber mufflers of short length are used often in the modern day automotive exhaust systems. The conventional 1-D axial plane wave theory is not able to predict their acoustical ...
A Numerical Study of Droplet Dynamics in Viscoelastic Flows
(2017-10-05)
The polymers are integral part of vast number of products used in day to day life due to their anomalous viscoelastic behaviour. The remarkable flow behaviour exhibited by the polymeric fluids including rod climbing, ...
Tribology Of Combustion Generated Soot
(2016-11-19)
Soot is a carbonaceous materials produced as a result of incomplete combustion of fuels (gasoline, diesel, etc). At the present level of automobile technology, emission of soot from combustion in diesel engine appears to ...
Design And Development Of Miniature Compliant Grippers For Bio-Micromanipulation And Characterization
(2017-05-24)
Miniature compliant grippers are designed and developed to manipulate biological cells and characterize them. Apart from grippers, other compliant mechanisms are also demonstrated to be effective in manipulation and ...
