Wave Evolution on a Falling Film

Since the pioneering experiment by the father-son team of the Kapitza family during their house arrest in the late forties (Kapitza & Kapitza 1949), wave evolution on a falling film has intrigued many researchers. One of its main attractions is its simplicity-it is an open-flow hydrodynamic instability that occurs at very low flow rates. It can hence be studied with the simplest experimental ap...

Design and Process / Measurement for Immersed Element Control in a Reconfigurable Vertically Falling Soap Film

Reinforcement learning has proven successful at harnessing the passive dynamics of underactuated systems to achieve least energy solutions. However, coupled fluid-structural models are too computationally intensive for in-the-loop control in viscous flow regimes. My vertically falling soap film will provide a reconfigurable experimental environment for machine learning controllers. The real-tim...

Improving Heat Transfer in Falling Film Evaporators in Food Industries

Falling film evaporators, due to their high heat transfer coefficients, low energy loss, rather a low holdup time, and the ability to handle high capacities have broad applications in food industries. Thus, this kind of evaporator is being used in the production of temperature sensitive compounds such as syrups. In this study, through modelling of the falling film evaporator with the use of...
