The monograph is devoted to the development of mathematical models and numerical procedures for the simulation of the mixing and heat transfer features of mutually immiscible liquids in the two-fluid turbulent heterogeneous jet flow, as well as in more general cases turbulent multiphase jets and other flows. Parameters of the turbulent mixing in the two-phase jet flow are modeled and analyzed. The phenomenon of amplification of a jet's kinetic energy against the input energy of the first phase from the nozzle was revealed in numerical simulation and discussed. The results obtained may be of interest for some research and industrial tasks, where the calculation of parameters of the multiphase turbulent mixing and heat transfer are important. The presented detailed computer simulations may be easily used in practice when specific experimental data are available to get correspondence with calculations by physical parameters. The presented new method can help to get important characteristics of the multiphase jets, which are impossible by other existing multiphase methods. Finally, some new ideas and developed models are presented and discussed.
Professor Ivan Kazachkov earned his PhD (Candidate of Physical and Mathematical Sciences, 1981) and MSc (1976) from the Kyiv National T. Shevchenko University (Ukraine), and Full Doctorship in Engineering (1991) from the Institute of Physics at the Latvian Academy of Sciences. He became Research Professor at the Institute of Electrodynamics, National Ukrainian Academy of Sciences (1989), and became Head of Department at the Nuclear Safety Center of Ukraine in 1995. He has worked at the KTH Royal Institute of Technology's Energy Technology Department for over 20 years as both Guest and Affiliated Professor, teaching numerical methods, developing interactive multimedia educational systems and modeling the multiphase flows. He has been Head of Department at Nizhyn Mykola Gogol State University (Ukraine) since 2009. From 2010 to 2012, he was also part-time Head of the Department of Energy Saving and Heat Power at the Academy of Civil-Communal Economy (Ukraine). His research interests include: parametric control in continua, multiphase flows, controlled film flow decay, and granulation of metals for special metallurgy.
