A general introduction to particle deposition.- Flow measurement and visualisation.- Physics of particle-laden turbulent flow.- Models of turbulent flows and particle dynamics.- Particle deposition and fouling.
The book presents an up-to-date review of turbulent two-phase flows with the dispersed phase, with an emphasis on the dynamics in the near-wall region. New insights to the flow physics are provided by direct numerical simuation and by fine experimental techniques. Also included are models of particle dynamics in wall-bounded turbulent flows, and a description of particle surface interactions including muti-layer deposition and re-suspension.
