Flow and Transport in Microchannels: Fundamental Theoretical Aspects, Experimental Methods, Application
Invited Lecturers
- Joel De Coninck (University Mons-Hainaut/ MN, Mons, Belgium)
- 5 lectures on: Dynamics of interfacial phenomena, from spreading of droplets to coatings on solid substrates, including molecular modelling of fluid flow in micro pores and around micro fibres.
- Peter Ehrhard (University of Dortmund , Dortmund, Germany)
- 4 lectures on: Modelling of electrokinetic effects, on their application for mixing or separation, on integral measurements in literature, and on concentration, temperature and pH-value field measurements in microflows.
- Mohamed Gad-el-Hak (Virginia Commonwealth Univ., Richmond, Va 23284-3015, USA)
- 6 lectures on: Introductory lecture and 5 lectures on flow physics in microdevices, on applications of MEMS, on flow and turbulence control by MEMS.
- Heinz I. Herwig (TU Hamburg-Harburg, Hamburg, Germany)
- 5 lectures on: Dimensional analysis on the micro scale, on the selection of governing equations, on one-phase heat and mass transfer, on variable-property effects, and on heat transfer measurements.
- Ralph Lindken (Delft University of Technology, Delft, The Netherlands)
- 4 lectures on: The principles and extensions of micro particle image velocimetry (mPIV) for flow field measurements, on applications in biological and biomedical flows, and in two-phase flows.
- Andreas Manz (University of Dortmund, Dortmund, Germany)
- 4 lectures on: Micro separation methods in analytical chemistry. Liquid and gas chromatography, capillary electrophoresis, isoelectric focusing, and isotachphoresis are discussed and scaling laws for separation on chips are inferred.
