2026 AIChE Annual Meeting – November 8-12, 2026

The AIChE Annual Meeting is the premier educational forum for chemical engineers interested in innovation and professional growth. Academic and industry experts will cover wide range of topics relevant to cutting-edge research, new technologies, and emerging growth areas in chemical engineering. CPFD Software are thrilled to once again sponsor the Particle Technology Forum Student Poster Awards! We highly recommend graduate students to submit their research to the awards. Keshav Ramchandran, CFD Engineer at CPFD will be presenting two talks. The first, “MP-PIC Modeling of and Graph Neural Network Surrogates for Dense, Non-Newtonian Granular Slurry Flows In Confined Geometries”, will be delivered during the “Fluidization: Modeling Approaches, Applications, and Fundamental Insights” session at 12:47 PM on Monday, November 9th in Room 200B. The second, “Multiphase Particle-In-Cell (MP-PIC) Modeling of TRISO Particle Production In a Spouted Bed Reactor”, will occur in the “Fluidization: Emerging Energy Applications and Experimental Studies” session at 8:54 AM on Tuesday, November 10th again in Room 200B.
