151-1906-00L | Multiphase Flow | 4 credits | 3G | P. Rudolf von Rohr, H.‑M. Prasser | |
Abstract | Basics in multiphase flow systems,, mainly gas-liquid, is presented in this course. An introduction summarizes the characteristics of multi phase flows, some theoretical models are discussed. Following we focus on pipe flow, film and bubbly/droplet flow. Finally specific measuring methods are shown and a summary of the CFD models for multiphases is presented. | ||||
Objective | This course contributes to a deep understanding of complex multiphase systems and allows to predict multiphase conditions to design appropriate systems/apparatus. Actual examples and new developments are presented. | ||||
Content | The course gives an overview on following subjects: Basics in multiphase systems, pipeflow, films, bubbles and bubble columns, droplets, measuring techniques, multiphase flow in microsystems, numerical procedures with multiphase flows. | ||||
Lecture notes | Lecturing notes are available (copy of slides or a german script) partly in english | ||||
Literature | Special literature is recommended for each chapter. | ||||
Prerequisites / Notice | The course builds on the basics in fluidmechanics. |
