    DESCRIPTION :
    -------------
                                                                                
    This procedure solves the equations of a two-fluid model. Two
    phases coexist: a gas which is the carrier fluid and
    particles which are considered as a (particulate) gas.

    The main assumptions follow:

         - the particles are monodisperse, homogeneous and spherical

         - the particulate fluid is very diluated: its volumetric
           fraction is much less than one and one apprximates
           the carrier fluid volumetric fraction by one

         - the carrier fluid is incompressible

         - the pressure gradient exerted on each of the phases is
           the same, except a proportionality factor: the ratio of
           the carrier fluid and solid densities

         - the both phases coupling appears in their momentum
           equations through an interfacial transfer term which
           is more or less the Stokes drag or a formula with a
           drag coefficient; the coupling term is +/-K*(U-V)
           where U and V are respectively the carrier gas and
           particles velocities

    The dynamic problem is composed of two conservation equations (mass
    and momentum) for each of both phases. So, there are four
    equations and four unknowns: carrier gas and particulate gas
    velocities, total pressure and particles volumetric fraction.

    The equations to solve are listed bellow:

     | alphf = 1 ; div(U) = 0
     |
     | dU/dt + (U.div)U = -grad(P)/rof + nuf*lapl(U) - Kf*(U-V)
     |
     | dV/dt + (V.div)V = -grad(P)/rop + nup*lapl(U) + Kp*(U-V)
     |                               + (1-rof/rop)*g
     |
     | d(alphp)/dt + div(alphp*V) = 0

    with: rof   carrier gas density
          rop   solid density
          nuf   carrier gas kinematic viscosity
          nup   particles kinematic viscosity
    (those four physical properties are supposed to be constant)

          Kf    carrier gas coupling coefficient
          Kp    particles coupling coefficient

          alphf carrier gas volumetric fraction
          alphp particulate gas volumetric fraction
          U     carrier gas velocity
          V     particulate gas velocity
          P     total pressure
                                                                                
  1/ One solves the coupled momentum equations system (they are
    Navier-Stokes equations) with the semi-implicit algorithms of
    the both NS operators associated to the equations.
    The carrier gas is uncompressible. This is the way one gets
    the common to the both phases pressure.
    The coupling between the momentum equations of the carrier gas and
    the particles is treated explicitely. This is a numerical limit
    of the model: the coupling cannot be extremely strong (very small
    particles). If it were the case, one must conclude there is no-slip
    betwenn the gas and the particles. There vaelocities are equal.

    The informations are given in an EQEX type table (created by
    EQEX). This table has to have a 'PRESSION' input containing
    an EQPR type table (created by EQPR) where the informations
    relative to the pressure equation and its resolution are placed.
    Finally the table must have a 'KIZT' input, table created by
    the user and containing the CHAMPOINT-TRIO.


  2/ One solves the mass conservation equation of the particles
    with the KONV operator following the informations given in
    an EQEX type table (created by EQEX).
                                                                                
    For more details, see the EQEX, EQPR, NS and KONV operators.
