2019 AIChE Annual Meeting

Session: Microfluidic and Nanoscale Flows: Multiphase Systems and External Fields

This session will highlight novel microfluidic and nanofluidic phenomena, with a focus on multiphase and field-driven flows. Topics of interest include multiphase systems (droplets, emulsions, bubbles) in microfluidic systems and electric or magnetic field driven flows.
