Many application utilize the evaporation of liquids to control the heat transfer from a hot wall. In the context of spray cooling, drops impact the hot wall...read more
The dynamic behavior of liquids in moving containers with application to space technology, commonly known as sloshing...read more
Liquid nitrogen is extensively used in electronics, metal processing and food industries where it is regasified using ambient air vaporisers before being used. The current interest is to utilize the cold thermal energy stored in liquid nitrogen that is otherwise lost to the ambient during the regasification process...read more
The increasing demand in cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) reveals drawbacks in current sample preparation protocols, such as sample waste and lack of reproducibility. Here, we present several technical developments that provide controlled and efficient sample preparation for cryo-EM studies...read more
The field of cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) has seen a large growth the past decade. With the goal of workflow optimization, the cryo-EM community has an urge for new approaches in sample preparation...read more
Aviation is the backbone of our modern society. At present, around 4.5 Billion passengers travel through the air every year and aviation is responsible for around 5 % of anthropogenic causes of Global Warming...read more
Cryogenic pulsating heat pipes (PHP) present a number of unique features as compared to their room temperature counterparts. The pressure and temperature range defined by the two-phase regions for a number of the cryogens is easily accessible with standard experimental processes...read more
Volatile substances such as solvents, gasoline vapors, or even chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) can be almost completely condensed in exhaust air streams and process gases by cooling with liquid...read more
Hydrogen is a potential candidate to replace fossil fuels due to its very high energy density which is more than double of that of most conventional fuels. Methods for hydrogen storage are as a compressed gas at very high pressures up to about 900 bar or as a cryogenic liquid...read more
