Klappentext This book introduces the novel porous media formulation for multiphase flow conservation equations, a new, flexible, and unified approach to solve real-world engineering problems. Zusammenfassung This book is designed to help engineers and scientists solve real-world multiphase flow problems. It introduces the novel porous media formulation for multiphase flow conservation equations. The novel porous media formulation represents a new! flexible and unified approach to solve real-world engineering problems. Inhaltsverzeichnis 1. Introduction; 2. Averaging relations; 3.
