Liquid metals with low Prandtl numbers. Turbulent transport. Reynold's analogies. Chemical reaction kinetics at phase boundaries.
Channel flow: Entrance and fully developed flow regimes.
Particles, drops and bubbles: Terminal motion. Heat and mass transfer.
Packed beds: Ergun's formula for pressure loss. Heat and mass transfer. Fluidisation.
Thermal radiation: Emission, absorbtion, reflecton. Adiabatic surfaces.Radiation in multi surface systems, view angle factors.

Learning outcome

After this course the student can:
- Identify and describe transport phenomena dominating processes for production and/or treatment of liquid metals/alloys.
- Explain various aspects regarding transport/transfer of mass, momentum, energy, and chemical components in fluid mixtures or between phases.
- Perform basic computations on transport/transfer of mass, momentum, and energy in idealized (sub-)systems, e. g. by application of boundary layer theory or correlations for energy and mass transfer.
- Choose necessary actions for incorporation of chemical reaction kinetics as well as treatment of particles, droplets and bubbles in the overall global concervation equations for mass, momentum and energy.
- Formulate and analyse problems involving radiation in multi-surface systems.
- Use methods for finding and evaluating estimates based on dimensional analysis and analogies for heat and mass transfer.
- Introduce simplifying assumptions for computations and assess the validity of the simplifications done.

Learning methods and activities

Lectures and exercises. Lectures will be given in English. 50% of the excercises must be approved before the final exam. In addition 3 written excercises will be arranged, and all of these must also be approved to qualify for the exam. If the teaching is given in English the Examination papers will be given in English only. Students are free to choose Norwegian or English for written assessments. If there is a re-sit examination, the examination form may be changed from written to oral.
