Third-cycle subject: Engineering Mechanics
The aim of this project is to forge new fundamental understanding on the role of flow transport and chemical reactions on heat- and mass-transfer across interfaces. The objectives are i) Develop a numerical tool for interface resolved simulations of heat- and mass-transfer at a gas-liquid interface, with chemical reactions on the liquid side. ii) Quantify the role of turbulence in both phases on the interfacial fluxes by means of large-scale simulations. Identify the main mechanisms determining the fluxes. The simulations will be validated against experiments performed by our international collaborators. The work will be performed within the multidisciplinary research environment Interface.
