2009 Autumn Training Session on TransAT
TransAT is a Computational Multi-Fluid Dynamics software. Multiphase flow is more the rule rather than an exception in industrial processes. Interfacial topology plays the most important role in Multiphase flow: dispersed phase flow (small bubble, droplets, particles suspended in a carrier fluid), large scale gas-liquid flows with heat-transfer and phase change are some examples. Specialized numerical techniques are required for the simulation of different interfacial topologies.
Announcement and information on application procedure can be found under the following link.
