The National Science Foundation's Division of Chemical, Bioengineering, Environmental, and Transport Systems awarded $200,000 to California State University Long Beach Research Foundation under the Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) for an Engineering Research Initiation (ERI) project running from July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2028. The project will develop a bounded Langevin micromixing model and associated computational tools to simulate molecular-scale mixing and chemical reactions in turbulent multiphase flows. The deliverables include advanced stochastic simulation software that enforces physical bounds on scalar concentrations, integrates chemical reaction kinetics with mixing processes through Jacobian matrix analysis, and adapts to local flow conditions based on reaction time scales. In addition to the core computational model, the project emphasizes broader impact through education and public accessibility. Deliverables include training of students in advanced simulation techniques, release of new software tools as open-source resources, and student outreach activities. The research is designed to support engineering applications in cleaner engine design, more efficient chemical reactor operation, and reduced-waste material manufacturing processes, with potential benefits to environmental protection and public health.Federal Grant Award Summary
