AGGREGATE EVOLUTION IN SHEAR FLOW: NUMERICAL INVESTIGATION OF THE ROLE OF COHESIVE AND HYDRODYNAMIC FORCES
DownloadFall 2021
Multiphase flows with a dispersed phase of micron-sized solid particles are common to many industrial applications, ranging from wastewater treatment to metal purification. These particles are in a size range where surface forces are significant, and thus are likely to form aggregates. When these...

Spring 2023
Shear-induced aggregation is an important process in the solid-liquid separation of colloidal particles, i.e., solid particles in the micron size range. In this process, the solid particles are mixed with chemical destabilizers in shear flow to induce the formation of aggregates or flocs, which...
