The project, titled “Experimental investigation of the flow of dense solid-liquid suspensions using echo-PIV and echo-LPT” will seek to answer some of the most complex, fundamental questions about the fluid mechanics behaviour of our High-Density Fluid.

The project is lead by Prof. David Rival from the Department of Mechanical and Materials Engineering (third from left). Moira Barnes (second from left) has been recruited as a graduate student to work on the project while Adnan El Makdah, PhD (second from right), is a post-doctoral fellow. Our application was successful in part because of the commitment to work closely together, with RheEnergise being an active industrial research partner in the project.
