Multiphase Reactive Flow Group
Led by Ryan Houim · Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering
Auto-generated from UF undergraduate research symposium abstracts
What we study
The group uses large computer simulations to study explosions and fast burning: dust explosions, detonations, rocket-style propellants and burning metal particles. The codes run on large parallel computers.

Current projects
Post-detonation multiphase flows
Simulates reactive aluminum particles dispersed by an explosive charge.
Detonation engines and propellant combustion
Models how detonations start and how solid propellants burn.
