Multiphase flows form the basis of many important processes in the mineral processing, metal production, energy and chemical process industries. CSIRO has developed CFD models to better understand numerous industrial processes, improve performance and develop new novel processes. CSIRO’s CFD team works across a broad range of areas, including gas-liquid, gas-solid and gas-liquid-solid flows. They develop CFD multiphase models for process equipment across a range of industries and leverage experimental facilities to measure models spanning a range of scales, including laboratory, pilot-plant and industrial plants. This webinar spotlights multiphase CFD model development and how CFD models support industrial plants.
