Although CFD is relatively mature for single-phase flows\,\nm ultiphase flows (such as particle-laden flows) and multiphysics flows\n(su ch as those including microwaves or ultrasound) remain\nsignificantly more challenging to simulate\, in part due to their\nintrinsic multiscale natu re and conflicting numerical need.\n\nIn the recent years\, high-order met hods have gained considerable\nmomentum in aeronautics\, in part due to th eir significantly lower\ndispersion and dissipation\, but also for their h igher arithmetic\nintensity (FLOPS-to-byte ratio) which suits current hard ware\ncapabilities. However\, these methods remain seldomly used in\nchemi cal-engineering applications\, in part due to their multiphase and\nmultip hysics nature.\n\nThis talk presents our efforts in designing Lethe\, an o pen-source\,\nhigh-order multiphysics framework for single- and multiphase flows\nbuilt on the deal.II library. We first motivate the use of high-or der\nfinite elements for CFD applications in process engineering. Then\, w e\npresent three cases that illustrate the role that these novel\ncomputat ional can play in simulating turbulent flows\, particle-laden\nflows and m icrowave intensified process. We conclude by drawing some\nconclusions on the potential of these methods\n\nWe conclude by reflecting on the role of open-source software in\ndeveloping accurate and efficient simulation too ls\, and some of the\nlessons learned during the development of Lethe. Fin ally\, we outline\nfuture directions for this work\, including the integra tion of\nAI-driven surrogate model as part of the design of unit operation s.\n\nBIOGRAPHY\nDr. Bruno Blais\, PEng\, PhD\, is an Professor at the Dep artment of\nChemical Engineering at Polytechnique Montreal. Before this\, he was a\nResearch Officer with the Automotive and Surface Transportation\ nPortfolio of the National Research Council of Canada (NRC AST).\n\nDr. Bl ais’s expertise lies in the development\, verification and\nvalidation o f high-performance digital models for fluid mechanics\,\nheat transfer and complex multiphase phenomena. He has earned a BEng\nin Chemical Engineeri ng\, a Grande École Engineering Diploma (D.Ing.)\nfrom ENSTA ParisTech\, a Master in Fundamental Fluid Mechanics from\nENSTA and a PhD in Chemical Engineering from Polytechnique Montreal.\nDr. Blais is a Vanier Graduate S cholar (2013−2016) and has received\nthe Governor General’s Gold Acade mic Medal for his work on numerical\nmodelling of multiphase flows. He is a strong advocate of open source\nsoftware for science and has contributed extensively to open source\nlibraries (Lethe\, deal.II).
