Fluid Mechanics

Session 236 - Particulate and Multiphase Flows
This session will focus on theoretical, experimental, and numerical studies on microscopic and macroscopic hydrodynamic phenomena in suspensions, slurries, and other dispersed multiphase systems including (but not limited to) liquid-liquid or bubbly liquid systems.
