- The paper makes the case for adding the Stokes number as a new parameter in drag force correlations in dense fluid-solid suspensions. This has profound impact on flow simulation methodologies for large-scale (chemical) engineering applications that involve gas-solid and liquid-solid fluidization or agitation. The work is a collaboration between Princeton University and UoA with financial support from ExxonMobil Research & Engineering Co. (contact: Timothy Healy, Senior Engineering Associate) and Binks Trust (UK). The findings have been already employed in follow-up studies world-wide (e.g., University of Cambridge, Graz University of Technology, University of Colorado, Technical University of Berlin).
