Microscale transport phenomena

Nowadays, CFD research at academia is heavily engaged in attempts to include microscale transport phenomena and microscale processes in the dedicated codes under development with a view to reproduce such divergent processes as... 

Multiphase interfaces play important roles in microscale transport phenomena. Multiphase microfluidics takes advantages of multiphase interfacial phenomena to achieve various tasks. For example, droplet microfluidics has been used to perform chemical reactions inside droplets for enhanced and accelerated chemical screening...

Extreme temperature regime can contribute to the importance of microscale transport phenomena. Peshkov (1944) experimentally observed the wave type of temperature propagation in liquid helium at temperature less than 2.2 K. Overall, this experimental evidence suggests that the wave type of temperature propagation may become important for certain material under certain extreme conditions, that is, at very low temperature near absolute zero. The wave-type propagation of heat is also called second sound. This concept was introduced by Landau (1941), which predicts the speed of second sound between and zero at 2.2 K,...
