Description
New advanced numerical methods and computer architectures have greatly improved our ability to solve complex multiphase flow problems. Presenting state-of-the-art advances and applications, this book contains the papers presented at the First International Conference on Computational Methods in Multiphase Flow. It provides information for scientists and engineers working throughout industry, research organizations, government and academic institutions on the development and implementation of computational techniques for the solution and understanding of such problems. The contributions included reflect the diversity of numerical approaches used and cover the following topics: multiphase flow systems; drop dynamics; heat transfer; cavitation, emulsions and suspensions; injector and nozzle flow; and stratified fluids and particle flows.
