Editorial Reviews

Revised, updated and translated from the German 1982 edition. For engineers, the predictive power of theoretical models is of prime importance in the field of flows in disperse systems, especially where the addition of particulate material increases the complexity of the system. The author examines the different operational regimes and the dominant mechanisms involved in the subject. Topics include concentrated particle arrangements, suspended particle motion, flow with partial phase segregation, models of fine powder rheology, and local fluid mechanics. Annotation c.
