Design and optimisation of swirl pipes and transition geometries for slurry transport

This thesis is primarily concerned with the design and optimisation of transition ducts for lobed swirl-inducing pipes. Single-phase swirl-inducing pipe flows were modelled and optimised using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). Optimised pipes were manufactured using rapid prototyping and an experi...
