Of interest to the whole NICFD community is the following publication in Annual Review of Fluid Mechanics: ----- Nonideal Compressible Fluid Dynamics of Dense Vapors and Supercritical Fluids by Alberto Guardone, Piero Colonna, Matteo Pini and Andrea Spinelli ----- [...] This review provides a comprehensive theoretical framework of the fundamentals of nonideal compressible fluid dynamics (NICFD). The relation between nonideal gas dynamics and the complexity of the fluid molecules is clarified. The theoretical, numerical, and experimental tools currently employed to investigate NICFD flows and related applications are reviewed, followed by an overview of industrial processes involving NICFD, ranging from organic Rankine and supercritical CO2 cycle power systems to supercritical processes. The future challenges facing researchers in the field are briefly outlined.
