6th International Conference on
COMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMICS
in the Oil & Gas, Metallurgical and Process Industries

Trondheim, Norway 10-12 June 2008

 

Objective and scope

The objective of the conference is to provide a forum to:

  • Explore the breadth and application of CFD modelling in the process industries
  • Identify and report on emerging CFD capabilities and applications
  • Identify limitations in the existing CFD capabilities and validation sources

The conference invites papers on the application of CFD in oil and gas transportation and processing, the minerals processing, metal production, chemicals and other process industries. 

The scope is exemplified by:

Multiphase flows:
Reacting multiphase flow applications
Spray driers, sprays
