Abstract

The 120th Euromech Colloquium on experimental techniques pertaining to sizing and tracking of submicron- to millimetre-sized particles suspended in fluids was held at Lyngby on 20–22 August 1979 with forty-one participants from ten countries. Twenty-seven papers were presented during the two-and-a-half day meeting. Techniques included optical and acoustical sizing and velocity measurements, tracking, sedimentation and deposition of particles in various gas and liquid flows.
