Multiphase Flows - Simulation, Experiment and Application
Short Course
Our Short Course, two days - from Monday noon until Wednesday noon, is designed to provide knowledge of the use of numerical and experimental methods for multiphase flows.
The first one and a half days of the Short Course will focus on general topics; in the morning of the third day information on specific multiphase capabilities and new developments for the CFD codes CFX/FLUENT, Simcenter STAR-CCM+ and OpenFOAM will be given. This includes demonstrations on case setups for Simcenter STAR-CCM+ and OpenFOAM and a discussion with the experts from ANSYS in parallel sessions for each code.
The numerical part will focus on finite-volume methods for Euler-Euler and Euler-Lagrange multiphase flow predictions, and on associated mathematical models. The experimental part will provide knowledge of the selection, installation and usage of modern gas-liquid measurement techniques and instruments, such as wire-mesh sensors, needle probes, process microscopy and gamma-ray computed tomography along with the application of data analysis tools.
The Short Course will address the interests of engineers, chemists, physicists and technicians active in research and design, who want to be informed about modern design methods and tools for multiphase flows.
