| Modelling |
Regarding modelling and computation, we have a
large number of modern PC's, but base most simulations
on a UNIX platform. In addition, we have access to and
make use of the Norwegian National Computer Centre
located at the university, which has three
supercomputers.
We are active users of Matlab and
have experience with most of the important
toolboxes.
We have developed and used for more
than 10 years an in-house CFD code for simulating the
performance of multiphase chemical reactors. An improved
version of this code is under development, including
modules for bubble break-up and coalescence and having
the advantage of employing stable and accurate numerical
algorithms as well as being developed for utilising
parallel super-computing. We license the commercial CFD
codes PHOENICS and FLUENT.
