For a description of forces on objects at interfaces and fluid profiles we also refer to the literature in sec. 1.17c. 

For one thing, we have not systematically discussed capillary phenomena, a collective term for everything Involving curved interfaces, mostly in contact with solids. References can be found in sec. 1.17c in chapter 1 analyses of fluid profiles were invoked for obtaining interfacial tensions and in sec. 5.4 the same was done for measuring contact angles. Let us now mention a few independent aspects. 

Most plates have NTU values of 0.5 to 4.0, with 2.0 to 3.0 as the most common, (multipass shell and tube exchangers are typically less than 0.75). The more closely the fluid profile matches that of the channel plate, the smaller the required surface area. Attempting to increase the service NTU beyond the plate s NTU capability causes oversurfacing (inefficiency).

Water dipoles and ions from the electrolyte solution form a fluid profile next to the solid-liquid interface, a relatively rigid and stagnant inner Helmholtz layer closer to the wall.

Due to the high-computational effort, these calculations are performed only for a relatively short period of real time (in order of seconds). The particle trajectories and the fluid profile obtained by this modeling are transferred to the mesoscale, where the simulations of particle wetting and drying are performed. On the mesoscale two different models are employed. The first model describes droplets as separate objects solving Newtonian equations of motion for each droplet and analyzing coUisions between particles and droplets. These calculations allow to predict the overspray rate The second model is used to calculate the drying of the Uquid from particle... 

The trajectories of all particles and the fluid profile are transferred as input parameters from DPM calculation to the mesoscale model. On the micro-and mesoscale, irregular and Cartesian mesh are used accordingly. To transfer parameters from one scale to another additional remeshing is performed (Dosta, 2013). 

The main calculation algorithm is shown in Fig. 4. In the first three steps, the import and transformation of particle trajectories and the fluid profile are performed. Afterwards the iterative part of the algorithm is started. In step 4, new liquid droplets are generated in the system. Number of droplets Ndrop, which are generated per one time step At, was calculated as ... 

In the submodel on the mesoscale simulation, the overspray part of suspension and its influence on the coating layer growth dynamics have been investigated. The droplets have been considered as discrete elements and the Newton—Euler equations of motions have been solved for all droplets. The dynamics of soHd pellets and fluid profile were taken from the previously obtained DPM results. To describe the particle growth the one-dimensional PBM has been used. From the analysis of the obtained results, the following main conclusions can be drawn ...
