The model setup is capable of producing convergent and divergent channel networks.
Consequently, the divergent channel configuration with a lower S/C ratio of 0.67 performs better at a cell voltage of 0.22 V.
The model is then used to study the influence of geometric scaling, membrane thickness, membrane stiffness, and slightly convergent or divergent channel geometry on the model response.
The flow in such a divergent channel is somewhat similar to the flow found in a centrifugal pump impeller transporting gas/liquid mixtures.
By contrast, rivers that drain surfaces capped by the Ogallala Group fan sediments show curved, divergent channel profiles (red lines), consistent with single-channel, non-branching rivers flowing directly down a planar surface.
The collapse of χ plots for m/n ≈ 0.0 and the curved, divergent channel profiles for m/n > 0.0 highlight that these rivers are single-channel, almost non-branching rivers flowing down an inclined planar surface.
In unit C, discrete mounds and semi-continuous lensoid bodies with divergent channelled flow style constitute the facies association, and are interpreted predominantly as debris-flow deposits that accumulated in a distal pro-glacial environment.
When a thin film of fluid is coated on a web by any type roll or spreader coater such that the fluid splits while in a divergent channel the resulting fluid surface is not smooth but is made up of ridges, running in the direction of coating.
Because of the diametrically opposed tasks and the divergent speeds of channels and pumps, they have traditionally been viewed as completely different entities, as alike as chalk and cheese.
An oscillating feedback micromixer comprising an inlet channel, two Coanda steps, a divergent chamber, a splitter, two feedback channels, and an outlet channel was designed considering the Coanda effect.
