Preface
Multiphase flow phenomena abound in many materials processing operations, including gas-stirred ladles, blast furnaces, and the like. This book focuses primarily on systems in which liquid and gaseous phases coexist. In general, such systems are complex and difficult to characterize. The phases can be continuous or dispersed, with mass, momentum, and energy exchange across the interfaces. For the past few years, there has been a heavy focus on relating the interfacial fluxes to measurable macroscopic properties of the flow so as to provide a fundamental understanding of the mixing process. Significant advances have also been made in the application of computational and experimental techniques to multiphase transport phenomena in materials processing operations. This book presents the application of these modeling tools to dispersed gas–liquid metallurgical systems. The book is an outgrowth of recent research activities of the authors in the modeling of multiphase flow phenomena in materials processes. It emphasizes the synergistic relationship that should exist between physical and mathematical modeling techniques through a variety of validation examples. The primary intended audience is materials researchers in industry and academia faced with practical problems of modeling multiphase flow phenomena in metallurgical reactors. The book can also be used as a secondary reference for an upper-level
