Concentration polarization modeling for high-pressure membranes with engineered surface features

Zuo Zhou presented her work on CFD modeling for patterned membranes at the North American Membrane Society (NAMS) meeting in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, in May 2019.

Her presentation examined the concentration profile, streamlines, shear stress, permeate flux results for eight geometries listed below.

One of the slides showed the streamlines for patterned membranes with all the vortices. Fun stuff!
