Fluid Transport in Nano-Confined Space

University of Alberta, Ph.D Program

  • Investigated the fluid distribution in the nanoporous media using in-house GCMC Fortran code.
  • Simulated flow of compressible and incompressible fluids in nanoporous media using the molecular dynamics simulation software LAMMPS and NAMD.
  • Developed in-house C codes to analyze the fluid dynamics.
  • Calibrated the validation of the Navier-Stokes (N-S) equation to fluid transportation in nano-porous.
  • Quantified the fluid flux deviation from a theoretical value using a user-friendly parameter (slip length) for numerical simulation.
  • Meaningful step in understanding fluid distribution and transport in nano-scale media with wide application in nano-techniques.
