Understand multiphase flows using multidisciplinary knowledge in physical principles, modelling theories, and engineering practices. This essential text methodically introduces the important concepts, governing mechanisms, and state-of-the-art theories, using numerous real-world applications, examples, and problems. Covers all major types of multiphase flows, including gas-solid, gas-liquid (sprays or bubbling), liquid-solid, and gas-solid-liquid flows. Introduces the volume-time-averaged transport theorems and associated Lagrangian-trajectory modelling and Eulerian-Eulerian multi-fluid modelling. Explains typical computational techniques, measurement methods and four representative subjects of multiphase flow systems. Suitable as a reference for engineering students, researchers, and practitioners, this text explores and applies fundamental theories to the analysis of system performance using a case-based approach.

Gathering contributions by leading social development scholars, this report offers a comprehensive description of the national development of cultural consumption in China. By comparing the annual growth of cultural consumption, GDP growth, per-capita income growth and savings growth, the authors reveal the disparity between urban and rural areas in terms of cultural consumption, as well as that between provinces. Based on an analysis of the status quo of cultural consumption in China, the book explores the road to a prosperous society and enhancing China's cultural development.

In China werden zunehmend Kooperationsprojekte mit deutschen Hochschulen gefoerdert. Dies bringt die Notwendigkeit eines deutlichen Ausbaus der fachsprachlichen Hoerkompetenzen der Studierenden im Deutschen mit sich - die Hoerkompetenzen sind entscheidend fur den Studienerfolg. Dieses Buch skizziert die Anlage, Durchfuhrung und Ergebnisse einer entsprechenden empirischen Untersuchung: Es galt zu erforschen, wie sich die fachsprachliche Hoerkompetenz im Deutschen bei chinesischen Studierenden entwickelt hat und welche Verstehensschwierigkeiten sie haben. Die gewonnenen Erkenntnisse koennen als Basis fur jene Studienbausteine dienen, die der Entwicklung des fachsprachlichen Hoerverstehens zugrunde liegen. Ziel ist das Meistern der fachsprachlichen Hurde innerhalb der rezeptiven Fertigkeit und ein Steigern der Studierfahigkeit.
