We have research position for Post-doctorate Research Fellow, Research Associat
e and research scholarship to support PhD student in the area of multiphase fl
ow as follows:
Position (1)
Post doctorate Fellow Research Position in: Stability of Multi-fluid Flow in
Microchannels
About project
The stability of the interface between a conducting fluid and a non-conducting
fluid is critical to the operating limit and the accuracy of the micro-fluidic
devices. Under the combined effect of hydrodynamics and electroosmosis, elect
rohydrodynamic instability occurs at the interface. The stability of the interf
ace has both fundamental and practical interest. On the practical side, the int
erface between two immiscible liquids is subjected to flow disturbances. On the
fundamental side, the stability mechanisms are influenced by the interplay of
transport phenomena between the immiscible liquids.
The project aim to investigate the instability of the interface between multi-p
hase under the combined effect of hydrodynamics and electroosmosis . Theoretic
al models, numerical simulation and experimental validation will be studied.
Requirements
PhD degree with experience in theoretical modeling /numerical simulation of mul
tiphase flow.
Prior experience in micro fluidic will be an advantage.
Duration of Research Project
1 Year (renewable subject to satisfactory)

Position (2)
Research Associate Position in: Oil-Gas two Phase flow in Pipeline
About project
Most of the research efforts on two-phase flow have been heavily directed towar
ds the flows of gases and Newtonian liquids. In the oil and process industries,
non-Newtonian liquids, especially pseudoplastic liquids are encountered freque
ntly through pipelines over long distances. A clear understanding of the basic
flow mechanism involved non-Newtonian liquid / gas flow is essential to econom
ic design of equipment. The project aim to develop theoretical / numerical mo
dels to investigate the effects of shear-thinning non-Newtonian two phase flow.
(eg. Stratified flow, annular flow).
Requirements
M.Eng (Master ) degree with experience in theoretical modeling /numerical sim
ulation of multiphase flow, non-Newtonian flow.
Duration of Research Project
1 Year (renewable subject to satisfactory)
