CALL FOR PAPERS

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.

This conference seeks to bring together academics and practitioners to explore the fundamental science, progress and challenges in mathematical modelling and simulation technology inspired by fluid problems in process engineering.

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;
• 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.

DEADLINE FOR ABSTRACTS: 28th February 2010
