| Description | The project is producing a raft of modelling and simulation tools capable of simulating internal gas flows through stages of mixed density. The primary contributions are in the process of being published, and involve harnessing machine learning techniques to replace the most computational-expensive components of standard simulation approaches. Other published contributions include a complementary method for simulating 'lubrication flows' (e.g. flows in narrow channels) in conditions where conventional modelling approximations breakdown. |
| Exploitation Route | The modelling and simulation tools are applicable to any internal gas flows in non-equilibrium conditions (conditions where conventional approximations become inaccurate and normal modelling alternatives are too computationally expensive).These include the gas flow in partial-vacuum conditions (which exist in a range of processes) or the gas flow through micro/nano scale devices (e.g. air-quality sensors). |
