Title | PhD studentship - Modelling bubble-particle interactions |
Category | PhD Studentship |
Employer | University of Birmingham |
Location | United Kingdom, Birmingham |
International | No, only national applications will be considered |
Closure Date | * None * |
Description: | |
Bubble-particle systems are encountered in a wide range of industrial and environmental applications (flotation, bioreactors, slurry bubble columns) but the complex dynamics and interactions make the design and operation of such systems particularly challenging. This collaborative project between the University of Birmingham and McGill University (Montreal, Canada) aims at better understanding bubble-particle dynamics for novel applications in recycling. This project is in collaboration with Professor Kristian Waters at McGill University, with the possibility of a research placement in his laboratories during the PhD. The student will also benefit from association with the EPSRC PREMIERE Programme Grant (https://premiere.ai) and be part of the PREMIERE research team including researchers from Birmingham, UCL and Imperial College. Froth flotation is an established method of separating minerals in a slurry based upon the relative hydrophobicity of the particles and while it has been used for decades in the minerals industry to recover high value materials, less attention has been paid to ridding water of low value ones (e.g. plastics). Surface active agents known as collectors are used to enhance the particle separation with the polar part of the molecule becoming attached to surface of the target particles, with the hydrophobic part forming a surface which is attracted to bubbles in the liquid. The target particles rise with the bubbles to form a froth, which overflows the cell to be recovered. To maintain stable, small bubbles, frothing agents known as frothers are added. The froth flotation principle has the potential to be used in a variety of novel applications outside its original use in the minerals industry, for example in the recycling of plastics or battery materials. However, there are many aspects of its operation which are still poorly understood which affect the overall efficiency of the process. This project will aim at investigating: - the dynamics of the frothing agent with the forming bubble interfaces: how the surface-active molecules alter the local interfacial tension and how Marangoni stresses may impact the performance of the froth and the attachment of the particles; - the interaction of the particles in the wake of the bubbles, where recent research has shown that this may be an important feature affecting the process selectivity, therefore efficiency. Both are critical to understanding the overall potential and efficiency of separation in novel applications. The research will involve a series of experimental work involving visualisation of particle and bubble dynamics in small-scale test cells and measurements of interfacial properties including dynamic interfacial tension. These will feed into a finite volume numerical model based on open-source libraries (OpenFOAM or Basilisk). The interfacial properties measured in the lab will be implemented and 3D numerical simulations of bubbly flows will be performed. The dynamics of the solid particles will also be coupled to the bubble dynamics and will be compared to the experiments in terms of flow structure, entrainment in the wake and adhesion to the interface. The understanding of these phenomena at reduced scale will help in developing empirical or data-driven models for improving larger scale models and the design of flotation columns. Funding: EPSRC DTP/College studentship in support of EPSRC PREMIERE Programme Grant (EP/T000414/1). Applicant: Applicants must be eligible for home fee status and should have a first-class degree or good 2:1 (or equivalent) in Chemical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Computing, Mathematics, or related areas.

Multi-dimensional Optimal Order Detection techniques for Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian (schemes) for compressible flows PhDA fully funded PhD studentship with a bursary of £25,000 p.a. (tax-free) plus UK Home student fees for four years in the Centre of Computational Engineering Sciences at Cranfield University.This is a great opportunity to work closely with AWE, for advancing state-of- the-art mathematical models and simulation capabilities. We are looking for an enthusiastic and motivated researcher with a strong interest in computational fluid dynamics (CFD), to join a diverse and inclusive research group. The Advanced Numerical Methods (ANM) Group specialises in cutting-edge research and consulting services focused on pioneering methods for CFD. This exciting research seeks to evolve the forefront of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) methods for compressible flows in the emerging Exascale High- Performance Computing (HPC) landscape. The aim is to achieve high-order of accuracy but also to obtain physically meaningful results that can advance the landscape of engineering simulations. The choice of the best numerical method, governing equations, and framework is far from obvious and unique. Employing a MOOD-style algorithm that continuously scrutinises every facet of the numerical solution, ensuring adherence to both physical and numerical admissible criteria. This algorithm unlocks several possibilities and enables high-accuracy and computational efficiency across single- and multi-physics simulations. However for Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian (ALE) frameworks, conservation errors, dissipation errors in regions of low-mesh quality, and carbuncle are just some of the issues that persist. The primary goal of this project is to advance the MOOD techniques for ALE frameworks by establishing new metrics that can accurately capture conservation errors during mesh deformation, bypassing/minimising the carbuncle phenomenon, establishing new physical and numerical admissible detection criteria for ALE, evaluate any potential benefits of high-order methods in the ALE context, and advance an available open source CFD software with the newly formulated algorithms/methods/frameworks. Cranfield University’s Computational Engineering Sciences Centre and Advanced Numerical Methods Group will host this project, benefiting from a proven track record in pioneering and implementing cutting-edge methodologies across the entire spectrum of computational fluid dynamics and close collaborations with other research groups around the globe. AWE will serve as the industry sponsor for this project, providing valuable support by computational physics specialists. The results of this project will contribute to an improved understanding of the possibilities and limitations of high-order MOOD methods for ALE schemes of compressible flows. The developed tools and methods will be implemented in massively parallel open-source CFD software and demonstrate best practices for method/equations/formulation selection for emerging architectures of Exascale High Performance Computing (HPC) facilities. The student involved in this project will acquire valuable skills through several experiences including attending modules from our MSc in CFD, attending workshops for Exascale HPC in national facilities, visiting several European research groups that the centre is in close collaboration for enhancing the depth and breadth of their research methods and growing their network, and close collaboration with our partner, AWE. The student will be supported to present in international conferences, and workshops and further enrich their skillset. Entry requirementsApplicants should have an equivalent of a first or second-class UK honours degree in mathematics, physics, engineering or other closely background. The candidate should have advanced programming skills in any of the following programming languages (Fortran,C++, C, Python). Successful applicant will carry out research activities in the aforementioned area and disseminate research outputs through scientific publications, software development, seminars and conference presentations.FundingSponsored by EPSRC, AWE and Cranfield University, this DTP studentship will provide a bursary of up to £25,000 (tax free) plus fees* for four years.

Description: | |
Modelling Phase Transfer in Reacting Flows Description Research at the Institute for Combustion Technology at the University of Stuttgart focuses on theory and computation of turbulent multiphase flows. The key expertise of our work is the modelling of multiscale processes and the corresponding interactions between turbulence, chemistry and particle dynamics. Examples include specific combustion related issues like turbulent combustion, solid fuel combustion and pollutant formation but also nanoparticle flame synthesis, flash boiling and mixing in particle laden flows. We have a current opening at ITV for a research assistant (Ph.D.) position in the area of stochastic modelling of spray flames. The project is motivated by the continued need for accurate predictions in energy conversion processes using liquid fuels. The challenges include novel burner design due to different combustion strategies and different properties of alternative fuels such as biofuels, e-fuels or ammonia. The latter will be needed for future carbon neutral or carbon free energy provision. Knowledge of the details of evaporation, liquid-gas phase interactions and subsequent combustion is, however, limited, especially in regions of high liquid fuel density. The current project shall use stochastic methods to predict the droplet combustion process in such multiphase environments with emphasis on the predictions of the mass and energy transfers between the phases and their effects on fuel conversion and pollutant formation. Your tasks: • Your tasks will focus on the simulation of spray combustion within different environments, ranging from rather dilute to dense sprays in canonical configurations and of laboratory flames. The phase transfer terms between the (real) liquid droplets and the stochastic particles representing the gas phase need to be assessed and strategies need to be devised that hold across all flow and flame regimes. • You need to develop and implement the corresponding algorithms that can also be used on high performance computing platforms. • You will analyze the simulation data with the aid of analytical models and machine learning methods. Especially the latter shall help you to identify the key quantities that serve as suitable coupling parameters. • You will develop new models and closures for the statistical description of the relevant processes such that the models are transferable to applications of industrial interest. • You will collaborate with partner groups predominantly in Germany and Australia, and all results shall be presented at national and international conferences. • Dissemination of your results in international journals is expected. Your profile We expect an excellent Master degree in engineering or related disciplines. You have a solid background in fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, combustion and/or particle technology. You enjoy theory and model development and their numerical implementation. You will have experience in programming (C, C++ and possibly Python). Knowledge of OpenFOAM would be very beneficial. You will be an enthusiastic and self-motivated person with a willingness to work closely with other team members. The Institute’s scientific language is English, but willingness to study German is expected. We offer: • The pay scale is according to TVL-E13 (> EUR 3000,-). The grade and therefore the final salary will depend on your relevant experience. The original appointment will be for one year. Upon successful completion of the first year, the employment can be extended for a minimum of two further years. • We offer excellent potential for scientific development in the Institute for Combustion Technology (ITV) at the University of Stuttgart with state-of-the-art computer facilities and access to the University’s supercomputing centre. The University of Stuttgart is one of the leading technically oriented universities in Germany with about 26.000 students and more than 5.000 staff. The Institute for Combustion Technology is part of the Faculty of Energy-, Process- and Bioengineering.
