9780521814362: Fluid Dynamics of Particles, Drops, and Bubbles

Synopsis

A modern presentation of multiphase flow, from basic principles to state-of-the-art research. Explains dispersed fluid dynamics for bubbles, drops, or solid particles, incorporating detailed theory, experiments, simulations, and models while considering applications and recent cutting-edge advances. The book demonstrates the importance of multiphase flow in engineering and natural systems, considering particle size distributions, shapes and trajectories as well as deformation of fluid particles and multiphase flow numerical methods. The scope of the book also includes coupling physics between particles and turbulence through dispersion and modulation, and specific phenomena such as gravitational settling and collisions for solid particles, drops and bubbles. Featuring over eighty homework problems for each of the primary chapters, including theory-based and engineering application questions. The comprehensive coverage will give the reader a solid grounding for multiphase flow research and design, applicable to current and future engineering. This is an ideal resource for graduate students, researchers and professionals.
