CFD analysis for improving freeze-dryer design

The objective of the project is to apply CFD to evaluate and improve the design of  a freeze dryer.  The effect of flow parameters on product drying and batch variance will be investigated for different designs already available.

First stage of the project will be a critical review of different design which are being applied in the Pharmaceutical industries. Then to perform CFD to propose an efficient design.
