Full Center Proposal for an I/UCRC for Multiphase Transport Phenomena 0934374 Michigan State University (MSU); Charles Petty 0934338 University of Tulsa (UT); Ram Mohan The purpose of this proposal is for the Center for Multiphase Transport Phenomena (MTP) to complete the fifth year of the first five-years (Phase I). MTP is a multi-university Industry/University Cooperative Research Center (IUCRC) with Michigan State University (MSU) as the lead institution, and the University of Tulsa (UT) as an additional research site. The Center focuses on the development and validation of Multiphase Transport Phenomena (MTP) models and computational methods motivated by problem-oriented research such as, advanced filtration processes, multiphase separation processes, advanced fuel sprays, coking furnaces, and fuel cells. During the fifth year of operation, the Center will focus on two signature technologies: the cross flow filtration hydrocyclone in support of cleaning produced water on offshore platforms; and, next generation multiphase turbulent models in support of computational fluid dynamics. Both of these initiatives are expected to have a significant and transformative impact on engineering design and education in the area of multiphase transport phenomena. The Center provides new industrial interactions, support of pre-doctoral and post-doctoral students, and opportunities for undergraduate and graduate student training. The early training of students in the Center will catalyze the integration of research and education in the field of multiphase transport phenomena. The Center has set up a program for recruiting, mentoring, and retaining minority and women graduate students in engineering. These students will also participate in weekly meetings with other minority students as part of a university wide program. Industrial internships for Center graduate students have been an essential element of the training and technology transfer mission of the MTP I/UCRC. Several former students are presently full-time employees of member companies and serve as advisors to the Center. If awarded a Phase II in the near future, the Center plans to initiate an international research component in the area of produced water in collaboration with universities and petrochemical companies in Brazil and elsewhere.

完整的多相传输现象的I/UCRC中心提案0934374密歇根州立大学（MSU）;查尔斯佩蒂0934338塔尔萨大学（UT）;拉姆莫汉本提案的目的是为多相传输现象中心（MTP）完成第一个五年（第一阶段）的第五年。 MTP是一个多大学产业/大学合作研究中心（IUCRC），密歇根州立大学（MSU）作为牵头机构，塔尔萨大学（UT）作为额外的研究中心。 该中心专注于开发和验证多相传输现象（MTP）模型和计算方法，这些模型和计算方法由面向问题的研究驱动，例如先进的过滤过程，多相分离过程，先进的燃料喷雾，焦化炉和燃料电池。在运营的第五年，该中心将专注于两项标志性技术：支持海上平台生产水清洁的错流过滤水力旋流器;以及支持计算流体动力学的下一代多相湍流模型。 预计这两项举措将对多相运输现象领域的工程设计和教育产生重大的变革性影响。 该中心提供新的工业互动，博士前和博士后学生的支持，以及本科生和研究生培训的机会。 该中心学生的早期培训将促进多相输送现象领域的研究和教育的整合。 该中心已经建立了一个计划，招聘，指导和保留少数民族和妇女研究生在工程。 这些学生还将参加每周与其他少数民族学生的会议，作为整个大学计划的一部分。 中心研究生的工业实习一直是MTP I/UCRC培训和技术转让使命的重要组成部分。 一些以前的学生目前是会员公司的全职员工，并担任该中心的顾问。 如果在不久的将来获得第二阶段，该中心计划与巴西和其他地方的大学和石化公司合作，在采出水领域开展国际研究。
