Abstract: We theoretically study forced convection heat transfer from a single particle in uniform laminar flows. Asymptotic limits of small and large Peclet numbers Pe are considered. For Pe≪1 (diffusion-dominated regime) and a ...

Abstract: The Marangoni propulsion of spheres and elliptical disks floating on the air–water interface were studied to understand the effect of particle shape on its motion and its stability at moderate Reynolds numbers. Self-propulsion ...
