07000 Transport Phenomena in Fluid-Particle Systems
OverviewFluid-particle flows pervade the chemical, energy, agricultural and pharmaceutical industries. In this session, we would like to receive experimental or modeling research contributions in the general topics of mass, momentum, energy or species transport in these two-phase systems. Applications pertaining to the energy industry are particularly encouraged but contributions involving other applications are also welcome.
