Fundamentals and applications of gas-particle flow
Abstract
This survey deals with flows of a gas in which small, rigid, and permanent particles are suspended. Particle concentrations range from so low that the particles do not affect the gas flow and can be treated as single particles to so high that the particles occupy an appreciable volume fraction of the mixture. The dynamics of single particles in continuum and low-density flow, the thermodynamics of gas-particle mixtures, and the basic flow equations for one-dimensional flow are discussed. Wave propagation, nozzle flow and gas-particle jets are also discussed. Additional examples of analytical and experimental results are given to illustrate important situations. Emphasis is placed on work performed in the United States.
