• A Monte Carlo Algorithm for Immiscible Two-Phase Flow in Porous Media 

      Savani, Isha; Sinha, Santanu; Hansen, Alex; Bedeaux, Dick; Kjelstrup, Signe; Vassvik, Morten (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      We present a Markov Chain Monte Carlo algorithm based on the Metropolis algorithm for simulation of the flow of two immiscible fluids in a porous medium under macroscopic steady-state conditions using a dynamical pore ...
    • Ensemble distribution for immiscible two-phase flow in porous media 

      Savani, Isha; Bedeaux, Dick; Kjelstrup, Signe; Vassvik, Morten; Sinha, Santanu; Hansen, Alex (Journal article, 2017)
      We construct an ensemble distribution to describe steady immiscible two-phase flow of two incompressible fluids in a porous medium. The system is found to be ergodic. The distribution is used to compute macroscopic flow ...
    • Harnessing thermoelectric power from transient heat sources: Waste heat recovery from silicon production 

      Savani, Isha; Waage, Magnus Heskestad; Børset, Marit Takla; Kjelstrup, Signe; Wilhelmsen, Øivind (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      Thermoelectric generators (TEGs) are compact and robust devices for converting heat into electrical power. In this work, we investigate the response of a bismuth-telluride based TEG to the transient environment of a silicon ...
    • Non-equilibrium Statistical Mechanics of Two-Phase Flow in Porous Media 

      Savani, Isha (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2016:335, Doctoral thesis, 2016)
      The world that we live in is a consortium of fluid-solid interactions. The field of two-phase flow in porous materials poses interesting questions regarding such interactions. In this project, we develop a statistical ...
