About the Project

Dense particle flows are frequently appeared in many industrial applications including fluidized bed in pharmaceutical reactors and modern recycling of plastic wastes into precious materials such as jet fuels, and reusable polymers. However, the technology is still evolving. In this project, as a key member of the team, you will develop the knowledge and techniques for predictive computational modelling of dense reactive particle flow systems using detailed unsteady and three-dimensional numerical simulations. You will work closely with experimentalist to discover the currently unknown mechanisms of the transport of mass, momentum and heat in such flow systems, and develop computational sub-models required in engineering calculations. This will be critical in optimising the existing reactors and improving their conversion rates.
