Hrenya
A recent Hrenya group publication titled “Kinetic-theory predictions of clustering instabilities in granular flows: beyond the small-Knudsen-number regime” (Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 738, R2, 2014) was selected as the focus
The past several months have been exciting for Professor Christine Hrenya. In addition to receiving a $1.5M industry-sponsored grant for fundamental particle flow research, a $450K grant for solar power plant
Professor Christine Hrenya was the recipient of the 2013 Boulder Faculty Assembly Excellence in Teaching Award.
How do cohesive particles in fluidized beds interact, and how does this affect the functioning of the beds? This fundamental question is of great practical interest to a number of industries, leading an international- Professor Christine Hrenya was recently awarded $450K from the Department of Energy (DOE) to investigate the use of solid particles as a heat transfer fluid in concentrating solar power (CSP) plants. Funding for the project comes from
