Advances and Challenges in Computational Research of Micro and Nano Flows

Abstract

This paper was presented at the 4th Micro and Nano Flows Conference (MNF2014), which was held at University College, London, UK. The conference was organised by Brunel University and supported by the Italian Union of Thermofluiddynamics, IPEM, the Process Intensification Network, the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, the Heat Transfer Society, HEXAG - the Heat Exchange Action Group, and the Energy Institute, ASME Press, LCN London Centre for Nanotechnology, UCL University College London, UCL Engineering, the International NanoScience Community, www.nanopaprika.eu.This paper presents a collective overview of recent studies regarding the computational modelling of micro- and nano-fluidic systems. The review provides an introduction to atomistic, mesoscale and hybrid methods for simulating micro and nano-flows, as well as discusses recent applications and results from the application of such methods
