Complex flows

Overall Course Objectives

Complex flows are addressed using the fundamental flow equations combined with effects from surface tension, compressibility, heat and scalar transport and with multiphase phenomena. This includes properties of dispersed phase flow, particle size distribution, and particle-particle and particle-fluid interactions. The student will use the solutions and models on relevant engineering problems.

Develop algebraic relations and differential equations for complex flows from conservation principles and apply this on fluid problems
Describe and apply relations for exchange of heat and mass at a surface
Describe phenomena in compressible flows and compute one-dimensional compressible flow
Classify and describe multiphase flows
Describe and solve dynamical relations for particles and droplets in a flow
Use statistical relations to describe a population of particles, droplets or bubbles
Describe and apply models for particle-particle, particle-fluid and particle-wall interaction
Apply averaged equations for complex flow using differential equations and fluxes
Describe and model the effect of turbulence on complex flows
Present a technical solution or model in a short and precise form
