SUMMARY:The challenge of consumer products: the prediction of complex flui
 d flow behaviour in both the consumer and industrial manufacturing process
 es: today's challenges and tomorrow's needs - Dr Mark Meili\, Proctor &amp

DESCRIPTION:While many consumer products appear mundane\, predicting their
  behavior both in manufacturing processes and in use is very complex.  Mos
 t real products are multi-component systems that are either polymer soluti
 ons\, suspensions\, surfactant solutions with complex phase behavior\, or 
 a combination of all of these.  Virtually all are shear thinning\, and man
 y are either viscoelastic or thixotropic.  Opportunities to understand fre
 e surface flow in general and high speed jets in specific will be discusse
 d\, as well as mixing criteria\, emulsification\, and coupled heat and mas
 s transfer with a flexible porous solid.
