THE DEVELOPMENT OF MECHANISTIC MODELS FOR BUBBLY FLOWS WITH HEAT AND MASS TRANSFER. Commercially available CFD computer codes are currently widely used in many Australian industrial sectors. It is clearly recognised that the state-of-the-art models for dealing with complex bubbly flows with/without heat and mass transfer in these computer codes require further developments and improvements. This research project will address the prevalent deficiency in many of these computer codes. It is antici ....THE DEVELOPMENT OF MECHANISTIC MODELS FOR BUBBLY FLOWS WITH HEAT AND MASS TRANSFER. Commercially available CFD computer codes are currently widely used in many Australian industrial sectors. It is clearly recognised that the state-of-the-art models for dealing with complex bubbly flows with/without heat and mass transfer in these computer codes require further developments and improvements. This research project will address the prevalent deficiency in many of these computer codes. It is anticipated that through this major development of new models capable of predicting a wide range of industrial bubbly flow problems and implementation thereafter in these computer codes, industries will experience significant benefits especially reduce time and costs in their design and production.Read moreRead less
Experimental and Numerical Modelling of Gas-Liquid Flows. Multiphase flow systems are encountered in many process industries such as chemical, petroleum, mining, energy, food and pharmaceutical, which are fundamental to the Australian economy. Commercially available computer codes for simulating such systems are currently widely used in many Australian industrial sectors.

This research project will address the prevalent deficiency in many of these computer codes and develop new models capable of predicting a wide range of industrial bubbly flow problems. The resultant improved computer codes will provide industries with significant benefits - especially reduced times and costs in their design and production.Read moreRead less
Improving Upper and Lower Bounds on the Order of Large Graphs under Degree and Distance Constraints. Networks govern all aspects of society, including transportation networks, communication networks, computer networks and networks for the distribution of goods etc. - and the theoretical analysis of such networks has become a subject of fundamental importance.

Networks govern all aspects of society, including transportation networks, communication networks, computer networks and networks for the distribution of goods etc. - and the theoretical analysis of such networks has become a subject of fundamental importance. Networks can be modelled by graphs. This project will provide new theoretical results which will improve our knowledge of network topologies. The new knowledge will then be utilised in the construction of large graphs with respect to given maximum degree and distance constraints.Read moreRead less
