ERI: Fundamental Study of Multiscale Dynamics of Molecular Mixing and Chemical Reactions in Multiphase Systems

US NSF grant open #nsf-2549901

Summary

This project will examine how different substances mix and react in flowing mixtures of liquids and gases. When fluids mix and undergo chemical reactions, tiny random swirls of turbulence control how well molecules mix and react. Understanding these processes is very important because they affect the efficiently of energy production, how pollutants spread in the environment, and how chemicals, materials, and medicines are manufactured. However, predicting and controlling mixing and reactions in such chaotic flows is a big challenge because small changes at the microscopic level can lead to ver
