Thermal diffusion in nanostructured porous InP

Flow Over an Exponentially Stretching Porous Sheet with Cross-diffusion Effects and Convective Thermal Conditions

This article investigates the influence of cross-diffusion on the viscous fluid flow over a porous sheet stretching exponentially by applying the convective thermal conditions. Velocity slip at the boundary is considered. The numerical solutions to the governing equations are evaluated using successive linearisation procedure and Chebyshev collocation method. It is observed from this study that...

Electrocatalysis using porous nanostructured materials.

The performance of electrochemical reactions depends strongly on the morphology and structure of the employed catalytic electrodes. Nanostructuring of the electrode surface represents a powerful tool to increase the electrochemically active surface area of the electrodes. Moreover, it can also facilitate faster diffusive mass transport inside three-dimensional electrodes. This minireview descri...

Thermal Transport in Nanostructured Materials

A detailed understanding of thermal transport at the nanoscale is becoming increasingly needed. This need is largely being driven by two distinct technological challenges. First, continuous miniaturization of electronic devices and the ever-increasing density of the components on integrated circuits (ICs) place ever-increasing thermal loads on systems. Indeed, it is now necessary to make therma...

Diffusion in Porous Media

Porous media are of considerable interest in a very diverse range of activities. They comprise a wide variety of substances—plastics, ceramics, cements, clays, rocks, porous glasses, carbons, silica gels, zeolites, the recently emerging metal–organic frameworks and coordination polymers, and many more. Even biological tissues may share many features of porous media. Depending on the given natur...
