“…200 μm in thickness, which, in conjunction with gravitational and centrifugal forces, Faraday waves, and Coriolis forces, produces a unique topological fluid flow behavior that gives the ability to control the formation of non-equilibrium systems in mono- and biphasic systems. , The self-assembly of fullerene C 60 , the scrolling and unscrolling of graphene oxide, and other nanomaterial syntheses have been used to mold the high-shear fluid flow in the device, thereby establishing three different types of submicron topological fluid flows, Figure : , (i) Coriolis force generating a spinning top (typhoon-like) flow from the hemispherical base of the tube, (ii) a double-helical fluid flow arising from the eddies associated with Faraday waves in combination with the Coriolis force from the curved surface along the tube, and (iii) a “spicular” or spherical fluid flow arising from the interplay of the spinning top and double-helical flows of similar diameter. The VFD has multiple applications in chemistry, biotechnology, , food science, and materials processing, , including the formation of SWCNT toroids and slicing CNTs with the processing perturbing their magnetic/chiral properties. − The outcomes of this processing as such in the VFD are consistent with the presence of the aforementioned different topological fluid flows, which depend on the tilt angle of the tube which is optimal at θ = +45° for all applications of the device, the rotational speed, ω, the flow rate through the device when scaling up beyond the so-called confined mode where a specific volume of liquid is housed in the rapidly rotating tube, and the temperature, concentrations, and properties of the liquid or mixtures of liquids …”
