IMA Conference on Fluid Problems in Process Engineering
Many industrially motivated flow problems lead to fascinating fundamental fluid mechanics studies, as well as providing profound challenges that drive the development of more powerful simulation techniques. This conference seeks to bring together academics and practitioners to explore the fundamental science, progress and challenges in modelling and simulation technology inspired by fluid problems in process engineering.
Date: September 6, 2010 - September 8, 2010
Location: University of Leeds, Leeds, United Kingdom

Organizer: Institute of Mathematics and its Applications
Deadlines: February 28, 2010 (abstract)
Type of Event: Conference, International
 
Description:

Deadline for abstracts (200-300 words): 28th February 2010.

The proceedings of the conference will be published in a
special issue of the IMA Journal of Applied Mathematics,
subject to the usual peer review process.

Background and scope:

Fluid flows are important in a wide range of engineering
applications. Many industrially motivated flow problems lead
to fascinating fundamental fluid mechanics studies, as well
as providing profound challenges that drive the development
of more powerful mathematical and simulation techniques.
Understanding and predicting fluid behaviour is becoming
increasingly important, especially for applications where
experimentation is too difficult, expensive or hazardous.

Papers are sought that showcase or challenge the application
of modelling to flow problems. Areas of interest include,
but are not limited to: 
- combustion, turbulence and reactive flows; 
- printing, coating and other free-surface/multiphase flows; 
- fuel cells; biofuels; oil and gas flow assurance; 
- manufacture of pharmaceuticals; flow chemistry; food science;
- mixing; fouling; particulate systems; heat transfer
enhancement;

It is hoped that cross-fertilization of challenges and
expertise across different areas will lead to the wider
application of modelling and simulation in process engineering.

Mark Wilson (University of Leeds - chair)
Martin Braithwaite (Imperial College London)
John Brindley (University of Leeds)
Stephen Decent (University of Birmingham)
Michael Fairweather (University of Leeds)
