Modelling of polydisperse particle-fluid reacting flows

复杂的多分散颗粒-流体反应流在许多粒度分布广、颗粒数量大的行业中被广泛应用，但由于对复杂反应流，特别是多分散性和相互作用缺乏基本的了解，阻碍了过程设计和优化。该项目将通过开发一种新的颗粒尺度数学模型来应对这一具体挑战，该模型将采用新的相间热/质传递、多分散性和计算加速的数值技术;并将其应用于两个典型的工业过程进行演示。这些成果将应用于对澳大利亚经济和技术未来至关重要的一系列行业。

Complex polydisperse particle-fluid reacting flows are widely practised in many industries where particle size distribution is wide and particle number is huge, yet the process design and optimisation are hindered by the lack of fundamental understanding of the complex reacting flows, particularly polydispersity and interactions. The project will tackle this specific challenge by developing a novel particle-scale mathematical model by incorporating new numerical techniques of interphase heat/mass transfers, polydispersity and computation speed-up; and applying it to two typical industry processes for demonstration. The outcomes will be applied across a range of industries of vital importance to Australian economic and technological future.
