We are all familiar with mould in showers and bathrooms, but where does this come from? There is increasing evidence that the shower plays a...
The project involves developing particle image velocimetry PIV, as a practical way of characterising gaseous turbulence. It involves seeding the gas with small particles of...
Understanding and forecasting airflow in enclosed/indoor environments is of great interest due to its close relationship to occupant’s safety, thermal comfort, and energy efficiency. Optimally...
Spraying is ubiquitous and finds application within delivery of materials (e.g. paints, agrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, personal-care products) to surfaces (e.g. crops, fabrics, skin). The spraying process...
Liquid jets are widely encountered from printing to ‘big industry’ which use jets for a range of applications including decontaminating surfaces (buildings, reactors etc.). In...
In the manufacture of complex formulated liquid products the incorporation and mixing of surfactants and polymers can lead to significant challenges. This is due to the...
Safe and efficient recovery of hydrocarbons is of paramount importance in the oil and gas industry. One of the main obstacles to successful oil production...
