10:00 AM-12:00 PM
Room: Ballroom A
Among the many large-scale applications of multiphase flow, this
session will focus on combustion, inertial confinement fusion and
supernovae. The two main issues to be discussed are the detailed
microphysics of the evolution of an unstable interface into a chaotic
mixing layer and the statistical and averaged equations suitable for
description of such phenomena at a macrophysical length scale. Thus
the session will include fluid instabilities, direct numerical
simulation (DNS) of fluid mixing, statistical analysis of random
solutions, and the development of subgrid models for large scale simulations.
