Aprašymas
Computational Fluid Dynamics in Chemical Engineering: Fundamentals and Applications presents the key concepts that are the base of this discipline, showing how it is strongly related to a variety of adjacent areas. The fundamentals of the necessary mathematical modeling required and the solution of complex system of equations using CFD techniques are presented in detail, along with a variety of applications of CFD in the context of Chemical Reaction Engineering. Detailed examples, ranging from single-phase to multiphase reactors (including operation in microfluidic devices before presenting the main trends, challenges, and opportunities for CFD in this area over the next decades) are explored.
Other sections present a variety of applications of CFD in the context of the Unit Operations of Chemical Engineering. Detailed examples, ranging from fluid mixing to coupled heat and mass transport phenomena, passing through heat transfer, solids handling and transport in porous media are explored. The book concludes with an overview of advanced uses of CFD in Chemical Engineering and related areas with a focus on Multiphysics applications (e.g., combining CFD with acoustics, analyzing and designing photochemical reactors coupling CFD with light modelling, etc.). Multiscale applications combining CFD with macroscopic and molecular simulation are also discussed. Finally, an overview of combining CFD with optimization techniques (including DOE and machine learning) is presented.
