Authors Lampropoulos N.K., Dimakopoulos Y., Tsamopoulos J. Abstract We study the transient, two-dimensional film flow over solid substrates with variable topography, a flow that has practical applications in microelectronics and microfluidics. The problem we address here is the advancing of a thin liquid film over square-shaped trenches with different depths […]

Authors Housiadas K., Tsamopoulos J. Abstract The effect of the air jet, which is used to increase the process stability and cool the polymeric film which is produced by the widely-used Film Blowing Process (FBP) is presented. The air jet is supplied circumferentially and tangentially on the outside surface of […]
