CHEMENG 310: Microhydrodynamics (ME 451D)

Chemical Engineering Stanford University 3.0 credits

Course Description

Transport phenomena on small-length scales appropriate to applications in microfluidics, complex fluids, and biology. The basic equations of mass, momentum, and energy, derived for incompressible fluids and simplified to the slow-flow limit. Topics: solution techniques utilizing expansions of harmonic and Green's functions; singularity solutions; flows involving rigid particles and fluid droplets; applications to suspensions; lubrication theory for flows in confined geometries; slender body theory; and capillarity and wetting. Prerequisites: CHEMENG 120A, CHEMENG 120B, CHEMENG 300, or equivalents.
