This collection covers first principle and applied studies of thermodynamics and rate-governed phenomena including reaction kinetics and meso-, macro-scale transport of mass, momentum, and energy throughout the sequence of processing operations. Topics represented include but are not limited to:
- Thermodynamic modeling for the optimization of alloy solutions, slag compositions, and other types of materials
- Mass and energy balance simulations of material processing systems using software such as Fact Sage, MPE, HSC-SIM, and METSIM
- Experimental and numerical studies on kinetic rate theories pertaining to crucial material processes such as chemical reactions, diffusion, nucleation and phase transformations, and solidification
- Numerical modeling and simulation, such as computational fluid dynamics (CFD), of multi-scale transport phenomena in unit operations
- Development and application of process simulations that utilize a combination of thermodynamic, kinetic, and transport equations to simulate and/or control individual unit operations and/or plants
