[Numerical and physical modelling of bubbly flow phenomena]
The objective of the research was to develop a sound theoretical framework for analyzing various two-phase flows. The macroscopic behavior of these flows depends on the details of the microstructure of the dispersion, and these details, in turn, depend on the nature of the flow. Given the very diverse nature of the flows and their complex dependence on the microstructure of the dispersion, it is unlikely that a single set of equations, similar to the Navier-Stokes equations for homogeneous fluids, will apply to all the different situations. Therefore, the aim was to develop general methodologies that can be used to examine specific situations and a general understanding about different kinds of macroscopic flows.
