Particle-Laden and Droplet-Laden Two-Phase Flows Past Bodies (a Review)

Abstract

A review of computational–theoretical and experimental works devoted to the study of the flow of bodies by two-phase (dispersed) flows is carried out. The features of particle motion in the vicinity of bodies of various shapes, as well as the effect of the dispersed phase on resistance and heat transfer, are considered. Some consequences of the interaction of particles and droplets with the surface of streamlined bodies (erosive destruction, gas-dynamic spraying, icing, glowing) are analyzed.
