The
Microscale Flow Laboratory (MFL) at Penn State University specializes
in the study of fluid phenomena in systems with relatively small
scales. Specific systems of interest include particle-laden flows
in complex microgeometries, multi-phase flows in fuel cells, and
a pulsed catalytic microcombustor for power generation. In additional,
MFL personnel are involved in at least one larger-scale experimental
fluid mechanics project aimed at studying the flow in a bend with
application to propellant delivery systems. Both experimental and
computational research is underway. Research funding stems from
both federal governmental agencies and industrial sponsors. Prof.
Kendra Sharp is the director of the MFL.
