Opis

Multi-phase flows are part of our natural environment such as tornadoes, typhoons, air and water pollution and volcanic activities as well as part of industrial technology such as power plants, combustion engines, propulsion systems, or chemical and biological industry. The industrial use of multi-phase systems requires analytical and numerical strategies for predicting their behavior. .In its fourth extended edition the successful monograph package Multiphase Flow Daynmics contains theory, methods and practical experience for describing complex transient multi-phase processes in arbitrary geometrical configurations, providing a systematic presentation of the theory and practice of numerical multi-phase fluid dynamics.In the present second volume the methods for describing the mechanical interactions in multiphase dynamics are provided. This fourth edition includes various updates, extensions, improvements and corrections."The literature in the field of multiphase flows is numerous. Therefore, it is very important to have a comprehensive and systematic overview including useful numerical methods. The volumes have the character of a handbook and accomplish this function excellently. The models are described in detail and a great number of comprehensive examples and some cases useful for testing numerical solutions are included. These two volumes are very useful for scientists and practicing engineers in the fields of technical thermodynamics, chemical engineering, fluid mechanics, and for mathematicians with interest in technical problems. Besides, they can give a good overview of the dynamically developing, complex field of knowledge to students.

Volume 2 is devoted to these important constitutive relations for mathematical description of the mechanical and thermal interactions. The structure of the volume is in fact a state-of-the-art review and selection of the best available approaches for describing interfacial transfer processes. In many cases the original contribution of the author is incorporated in the overall presentation. The most important aspects of the presentation are that it stems from the author s long years of experience developing computer codes. The emphasis is on the practical use of these relationships: either as stand-alone estimation methods or within a frame-work of computer codes.

Recenzje

From the reviews of the fourth edition:

"The text provides a lot of information regarding the theoretical and experimental development in multiphase flow dynamics. ... This book should serve as a handbook regarding mechanical interaction in multiphase flow dynamics. The up-dating of the information in this revised edition satisfies the need of researchers, who can refer to the book during their investigations." (S. C. Rajvanshi, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1232, 2012)
