Written by leading multiphase flow and CFD experts, this book enables engineers and researchers to understand the use of population balance modeling and computational fluid dynamics frameworks. Population balance approaches can now be used in conjunction with CFD, effectively driving more efficient and effective multiphase flow processes. Engineers familiar with standard CFD software including Ansys-CFX and -Fluent will be able to use the tools and approaches presented in this book in the effective research, modeling and control of multiphase flow problems.
