To understand the fundamental physics of a two-phase flow, including interface instability, droplets breakup, dispersion, evaporation, droplets or coal particles combustion. To introduce the modeling of such flows and to consider numerous applications in energy production processes.
This course is an attempt to provide the essential physics of two-phase flows in the context of energy production processes. Scope : i) Spray production and dispersion of particles. The gas-liquid interface. Evaporation. ii) Combustion in two-phase flows (coal particles and sprays) ; industrial burners. iii) Heat-and-mass transfert in the presence of phase transition ; water-cooled reactors and boilers
Activity contextualised through environmentally sustainable development and social responsibility and/or supported by examples, exercises, applications.
