Thermal effects on particle deposition in microchannels

Abstract

Without their precious suggestions, I would not have worked out so many problems in the project. They have shared with me their priceless research experiences, and always encouraged me to have a critical thinking and attain essential insights on my research. I always obtain inspiring ideas through discussions with them. I also would like to thank Prof. Fei Duan for his constant encouragement and help during my study in NTU. I would like to appreciate the financial support received from Nanyang Technological University. Without the scholarship, this research would not have been feasible. I also acknowledge technical staff, Messrs. Yuan Kee Hock and Yap Pow Khim and for their assistance in the experiments. They taught me many lessons around the laboratories and workshops. I have been very lucky to work side by side with the distinguished students in Thermal and Fluids Laboratory who have helped me a lot.
