This project is an opportunity to harness the synergy between world-leading scientists from four prestigious institutions to create the next generation modelling tools for complex multiphase flows. These flows are central to micro-fluidics, virtually every processing and manufacturing technology, oil-and-gas and nuclear applications, and biomedical applications such as lithotripsy and laser-surgery cavitation. The ability to predict the behaviour of multiphase flows reliably will address a major challenge of tremendous economic, scientific, and societal benefit to the UK. The Programme will achieve this goal by developing a single modelling framework that establishes, for the first time, a transparent linkage between input (models and/or data) and prediction; this will allow systematic error-source identification, and, therefore, directed, optimal, model-driven experimentation, to maximise prediction accuracy. The framework will also feature optimal selection of massively-parallelisable numerical methods, capable of running efficiently on 10^5-10^6 core supercomputers, optimally-adaptive, three-dimensional resolution, and the most sophisticated multi-scale physical models. This framework will offer unprecedented resolution of multi-scale, multiphase phenomena, minimising the reliance on correlations and empiricism. The investigators' synergy, and their long-standing industrial collaborations, will ensure that this Programme will result in a paradigm-shift in multiphase flow research worldwide. We will demonstrate our capabilities in two areas of strategic importance to the UK: by providing insights into novel manufacturing processes, and reliable prediction of multiphase flow regime transitions in the oil-and-gas industry. Our framework will be sufficiently general to address a number of other industrial and environmental global challenges, which we detail herein.

该项目是一个利用来自四个著名机构的世界领先科学家之间的协同作用，为复杂多相流创建下一代建模工具的机会。这些流动是微流体技术、几乎所有加工和制造技术、油气和核应用以及生物医学应用（如碎石术和激光手术空化）的核心。可靠地预测多相流行为的能力将为英国带来巨大的经济、科学和社会效益。该方案将通过开发一个单一的建模框架来实现这一目标，该框架将首次在输入（模型和/或数据）与预测之间建立透明的联系;这将允许系统地识别错误来源，从而进行有针对性的、最佳的、模型驱动的实验，以最大限度地提高预测准确性。该框架还将优化选择可并行计算的数值方法，能够在10^5-10^6核超级计算机上有效运行，具有最佳自适应，三维分辨率和最复杂的多尺度物理模型。该框架将提供前所未有的多尺度、多相现象的分辨率，最大限度地减少对相关性和非线性的依赖。研究人员的协同作用，以及他们长期的工业合作，将确保该计划将导致全球多相流研究的范式转变。我们将在对英国具有战略重要性的两个领域展示我们的能力：通过提供对新型制造工艺的见解，以及对石油和天然气行业多相流状态转换的可靠预测。我们的框架将具有足够的通用性，以应对我们在此详细介绍的其他一些工业和环境全球挑战。
