Flux Lab 

Department of Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering, University of Florida

Welcome! 

The Flux Lab delves into the intriguing transport phenomena, described by three parameters: flux (which also lends our group its name!), potential gradient, and resistance. To illustrate, consider the heat transfer, where the heat flux resulting from the temperature gradient and thermal resistance. Similarly, fluid flow, diffusion, and the ionic current density are associated with pressure, concentration, and voltage gradients, respectively. We explore and tailor diverse transport phenomena, with innovative interface and material engineering, to tackle the pressing challenges in sustainable water and energy domains.

👏🏻Welcome Yogesh and Kaden to our team! Yogesh, who is currently pursuing his master's degree, will be contributing to the Flux Lab for a semester before moving to Dr. Scheffe's group at UF for his PhD in Fall 2024. Kaden has come aboard as an undergraduate researcher, focusing on boiling heat transfer.
