Project 1: Computational Modeling of Flow and Surfactant Transport in an Alveolus Partially Filled with Liquid
نویسنده
چکیده
I have four projects available in my research group. The projects are mainly supported by TUBITAK, TUBA through the young investigator award (GEBIP) and Koc University. All projects involve some sort of international collaborations as mentioned at the end of each project. Short descriptions of the available projects are provided below. For details of the project and research opportunities, please directly contact me via e-mail or phone.

A model of flow and surfactant transport in an oscillatory alveolus partially filled with liquid
The flow and transport in an alveolus are of fundamental importance to partial liquid ventilation, surfactant transport, pulmonary drug administration, cell-cell signaling pathways, and gene therapy. We model the system in which an alveolus is partially filled with liquid in the presence of surfactants. By assuming a circular interface due to sufficiently strong surface tension and small surfac...
متن کاملModeling and Experimental Study of Carbon Dioxide Absorption in a Flat Sheet Membrane Contactor
comIn the present study, CO2 removal from natural gas stream has been studied using a flat sheet membrane contactor. A three dimensional mathematical model is developed to describe the process. The model considers the transport of a gas mixture containing carbon dioxide and methane through a flat sheet membrane contactor module. The model is based on the non-wetted mode of operation, in which t...
متن کاملSelective and Efficient Ligandless Water-in-Oil Emulsion Liquid Membrane Transport of Thorium(IV) Ions
The present paper concerns on the selective and very efficient transport of thorium(IV) ions from aqueous solutions through an emulsion liquid membranes composed by paraffin and a surfactant, without carrier requirement. The influence of pH of the external aqueous phase, the surfactant concentration in the membrane phase, the type, and concentration of th...
متن کاملNumerical simulation of the fluid dynamics in a 3D spherical model of partially liquefied vitreous due to eye movements under planar interface conditions
Partially liquefied vitreous humor is a common physical and biochemical degenerative change in vitreous body which the liquid component gets separated from collagen fiber network and leads to form a region of liquefaction. The main objective of this research is to investigate how the oscillatory motions influence flow dynamics of partial vitreous liquefaction (PVL). So far computational fluid d...
متن کاملNumerical Study of Natural Convection in an Inclined Cavity with Partially Active Side Walls Filled with Cu-water Nanofluid
The buoyancy-driven fluid flow and heat transfer in a square cavity with partially active side walls filled with Cu-water nanofluid is investigated numerically. The active parts of the left and the right side-walls of the cavity are maintained at temperatures Th and Tc, respectively, with Th>Tc. The enclosure’s top and bottom walls, as well as, the inactive parts of its side walls are kept insu...
