The Complexities of Multiphase Flows

Gretar Tryggvason, professor and head of the Mechanical Engineering Department at Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI), conducts research on multiphase flow, which is another way of describing what happens when two flowing substances, such as air and water, come into contact. When they do, they often produce bubbles or a spray of drops. Multiphase flow is of great interest to a wide range of industries, from electronics to nuclear power.
