The lab uses computation and optical measurement to unravel multiphase fluids.

AboutAbout the lab
Reading the flow of multiphase fluids through computation and measurement
The Integrated Fluid Informatics Lab aims to develop and systematize methods for analyzing multiphase fluids by integrating massively parallel distributed computing with advanced optical measurement.
The lab also conducts fundamental research on new multiphase fluid systems directly linked to environmentally harmonious energy, typified by high-density hydrogen.
It also works on nano-cleaning technology using cryogenic fine particles ejected at supersonic speed, and on simulation technology for evaluating the impact force of tsunamis carrying drifting objects and earthquake debris.
On the lab's website, it is introduced under the name "Multiphase Flow Energy Research Field."
Key terms
- Multiphase fluid
- A fluid in which materials with different properties, such as gas, liquid, and solid, flow mixed together. Flows containing sprays or bubbles are examples
- Optical measurement
- A method that uses light to measure particles and liquids in a flow without touching them
- Atomization
- A phenomenon in which a liquid breaks up into fine droplets and becomes a mist. It is dealt with in applications such as fuel injection
ResearchResearch themes
The lab aims to develop and systematize methods for analyzing the flow of multiphase fluids by integrating massively parallel distributed computing with advanced optical measurement. It also promotes fundamental research toward new multiphase fluid systems directly linked to environmentally harmonious energy, typified by high-density hydrogen, and toward establishing the risk science that accompanies them.
*Illustrative imageApplications to automotive parts manufacturing
The lab develops multiphase fluid dynamics methods for the manufacturing of automotive parts. Using supercomputing, it handles the atomization of sprays from injectors, laser melting of fine particles in 3D printers, and lubrication between engine pistons and connecting rods.
*Illustrative imageFuel injection technology for gas turbines
The lab investigates atomization, the process in which a liquid film breaks into fine droplets in an air flow, by combining numerical analysis, flow visualization, optical measurement, and theoretical analysis, with the aim of establishing technology to control atomization.
