4th International Conference on Numerical Methods in Multiphase Flows ICNNMF4
Abstract
Considering the vast importance of multiphase flows in many applications ranging from medicine to aeronautics, and the growing impor,tance of Computational Fluid Dynamics in multiphase flows, we are hosting the 4th International Conference on Numerical Methods in M,ultiphase Flows (ICNMMF-4), to be held in Venice, Italy, from September 28-30, 2022. The technical and scientific objective of this,conference is to have an international high-level meeting, focused on numerical aspects with respect to the latest developments and,needs in CFD for multiphase flows. We seek to put special emphasis on research needs and future actions from a methodological perspe,ctive. Thus, contributions are concerned with recent developments in CFD technology, new research ideas, techniques, and directions.,This event supports US Navy technology planning, investment and directions by focusing on the state-of-the-art in cavitation, bubbly, flows, stratification, free surface flows, sprays and turbulence in multiphase flows. Also, the numerics employed in USN codes are,underpinned by methods presented and advanced at ICNMMF-4. ICNMMF-4 hosts a Scientific Committee of twenty-seven world class researc,hers in multiphase CFD. There will be six invited speakers who are among the most recognized names in the field: Rodney Fox, Carlo C,asciola, Hans Kuipers, Vincent Moreau, Outi Tammisola, and Olivier Simonin. The relevant ONR program officers in Codes 33 and 35 hav,e been invited to the conference and will be asked to participate in evolving panel discussions.ICNMMF-4 will comprise plenary, oral, and poster presentations addressing numerical aspects in advanced methods. The desired outcomes of the conference is the identifica,tion and presentation/discussion of new and potential approaches for key research challenges in Direct Numerical Simulation (sharp v,s. diffuse interface models), two-/multi-fluid models, particle-based methods, meshless methods, advanced discretization techniques,including high-order schemes, numerical methods for multiphysics at interfaces, coupled multiphase systems, adaptive/dynamic/multisc,ale techniques, numerical benchmarks (Verification & Validation), High Performance Computing (HPC) methods, large-scale simulations,of multiphase systems, optimization, uncertainty quantification, and machine-learning and data-driven techniques. These technologies, span applications in segregated multiphase flows (e.g., two-phase/free-surface flows), dispersed multiphase flows (e.g., bubble/dro,plet flow, sprays, fluidized beds, particulate flow/multi-particle systems, polydispersity), turbulence in two- and multiphase flows,, interfacial heat and mass transfer (e.g., phase change, cavitation, boiling), high speed multiphase flows, multicomponent and reac,ting multiphase systems, electrochemistry applications and interfacial flows.The technical and scientific objectives just stated are, clearly accommodated in the parallel sessions and 6 plenary talks. The Naval relevant topics of cavitation, bubbly flows, stratific,ation, free surface flows, sprays and turbulence are directly and indirectly accommodated in at least 75% of the sessions. The organ,izers believe that the scope, depth and duration of the program are well suited to advancing multiphase CFD technology through the i,dentification and presentation/discussion of new and potential approaches for key research challenges.
