Mixing computational fluid dynamics

The Prandtl mixing length concept is useful for shear flows parallel to walls, but is inadequate for more general three-dimensional flows. A more complicated semiempirical model commonly used in numerical computations, and found in most commercial software for computational fluid dynamics (CFD see the following subsection), is the A — model described by Launder and Spaulding (Lectures in Mathematical Models of Turbulence, Academic, London, 1972). In this model the eddy viscosity is assumed proportional to the ratio /cVe. [Pg.672]

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) emerged in the 1980s as a significant tool for fluid dynamics both in research and in practice, enabled by rapid development in computer hardware and software. Commercial CFD software is widely available. Computational fluid dynamics is the numerical solution of the equations or continuity and momentum (Navier-Stokes equations for incompressible Newtonian fluids) along with additional conseiwation equations for energy and material species in order to solve problems of nonisothermal flow, mixing, and chemical reaction. [Pg.673]

There are many nonintrusive experimental tools available that can help scientists to develop a good picture of fluid dynamics and transport in chemical reactors. Laser Doppler velocimetry (LDV), particle image velocimetry (PIV) and sonar Doppler for velocity measurement, planar laser induced fluorescence (PLIF) for mixing studies, and high-speed cameras and tomography are very useful for multiphase studies. These experimental methods combined with computational fluid dynamics (CFDs) provide very good tools to understand what is happening in chemical reactors. [Pg.331]

So far, some researchers have analyzed particle fluidization behaviors in a RFB, however, they have not well studied yet, since particle fluidization behaviors are very complicated. In this study, fundamental particle fluidization behaviors of Geldart s group B particle in a RFB were numerically analyzed by using a Discrete Element Method (DEM)- Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) coupling model [3]. First of all, visualization of particle fluidization behaviors in a RFB was conducted. Relationship between bed pressure drop and gas velocity was also investigated by the numerical simulation. In addition, fluctuations of bed pressure drop and particle mixing behaviors of radial direction were numerically analyzed. [Pg.505]

This study investigates the hydrodynamic behaviour of an aimular bubble column reactor with continuous liquid and gas flow using an Eulerian-Eulerian computational fluid dynamics approach. The residence time distribution is completed using a numerical scalar technique which compares favourably to the corresponding experimental data. It is shown that liquid mixing performance and residence time are strong functions of flowrate and direction. [Pg.669]

Computational fluid dynamics were used to describe the flow which undergoes a fast transition from laminar (at the fluid outlets) to turbulent (in the large mixing chamber) [41]. Using the commercial tool FLUENT, the following different turbulence models were applied a ke model, an RNC-ki model and a Reynolds-stress model. For the last model, each stream is solved by a separate equation for the two first models, two-equation models are applied. To have the simulations at... [Pg.119]

The effects deriving from both nonideal mixing and the presence of multiphase systems are considered, in order to develop an adequate mathematical modeling. Computational fluid dynamics models and zone models are briefly discussed and compared to simpler approaches, based on physical models made out of a few ideal reactors conveniently connected. [Pg.7]
