Further progress has been made in formulation of the thermodynamically consistent, rate dependent model for turbulent two-phase flows. The thermodynamically admissible constitutive equations were derived, and the case of a simple shear flow was studied. The kinetic model for rapid flows of granular materials, which includes frictional losses, was used for studying gravity flow down an inclined chute. Some typical velocity profiles were obtained and the results were compared with the data of Savage. The effect of inter-particle friction was also studied. Progress has been made in developing a computational model for rapid granular and two-phase flows in complex geometries. …

Further progress has been made in formulation of the thermodynamically consistent, rate dependent model for turbulent two-phase flows. The thermodynamically admissible constitutive equations were derived, and the case of a simple shear flow was studied. The kinetic model for rapid flows of granular materials, which includes frictional losses, was used for studying gravity flow down an inclined chute. Some typical velocity profiles were obtained and the results were compared with the data of Savage. The effect of inter-particle friction was also studied. Progress has been made in developing a computational model for rapid granular and two-phase flows in complex geometries. A discrete element numerical scheme was used for granular flow analysis. A predictor-corrector numerical procedure was developed for analyzing two-phase flows. Progress has been made in the construction of the experimental simple shear flow device. The design of the device was improved and its main body was assembled.
