柏超博士将结合自己的求学与科研经历,介绍香港大学访学与学科研究现状,并作专题报告,主要内容如下:
Nanofluids are two-phase mixtures of base fluids and nanoparticles. They possess unique thermal, magnetic, electronic, optical and wetting properties, and thus have tremendous applications in many fields. For practical applications of nanofluids in heat-transfer systems, we often try to achieve a global aim such as optimization of system highest temperature and optimization of system overall thermal resistance. To improve energy efficiency,attention should focuson designing nanofluids for the best global performance.As indicated by constructal theory, flow structures emerge from the evolutionary tendency to generate faster and easier flow access in configurations that are free to morph. Constructal theory can not only predict natural flow architectures but also guide design of flow systems. Inour work,constructal design is appliedto studynanofluid heat conduction such that the system (global) performance can be constantly improved.
