SPIN Centre for Chemical Engineering

Modeling

The SPIN Centre is continuously developing new models to make the complex reality tractable:

  • Population Balance (1 and N dimensions) : QMOM, DQMOM, Monte-Carlo
  • Nucleation-growth models (for phase change or precipitation)
  • Agglomeration-agregation models (for suspended particles)
  • Thermodynamic models for phase equilibrium/speciation
  • Reaction models :
    • Precipitation of clathrate hydrates, salts, …
    • Hydration of cements
    • Corrosion by oxidation, reduction, fluoration, …
  • Stochastic models
  • Groundwater flow model
  • Fluid flow models : LBM, SPH, …
  • Granular flow models : DEM
