How to destroy session and cookies on browser close in rails 4

I want to destroy user session and expire cookies whenever i close the browser. To expire cookies i try to create cookies without expiration time but not work.

EDIT :

cookies[:test] = {value: "test123", domain: :all}

I create this cookie and i want when i close the broswer , the is not available there . and when user log in i set current user with session (session[:user_id= @user.id) and I want when I close the browser , session[:user_id] should be null.

Just a quick suggestion:

I think if you use something like AngularJS or even jQuery, then you can fire a trigger when browser about to close to trigger a function to remove the cookies for you.

Regarding the Sessions you can use the same theory only you need to trigger Ajax as Session variables can be removed by Rails.
