PREFACE 
an expanded and formalized presentation of workshop notes. I have tried to provide 
sufficient information to understand and to define the specific role of computational 
f
 low modeling for reactor engineering applications, to select appropriate tools and 
to apply these tools to link reactor hardware to reactor performance. The intended 
audience of the book is practicing chemical engineers working in industry as well as 
chemical engineering scientists and research students working in the area of reactor 
engineering. Some prior background in reactor engineering and numerical techniques 
is assumed
