Multiscale computational fluid dynamics

Multiscale descriptions of particle-droplet interactions in spray processing of composite particles are realized based on Multiphase Computational Fluid Dynamics (M-CFD) models, in which processes such as liquid atomization and particle-droplet mixing spray (macro-scale), particle-droplet collision (mesoscale), and particle penetration into droplet (micro-scale) are taken into account as shown in Fig. 18.52. Thereby, the incorporation efficiency and sticking efficiency of solid particles in matrix particles are correlated with the operatiOTi conditions and material properties. 

This contribution outlines a multiscale simulation approach for analysis of a Wurster coating process occurring in a fluidized bed. The processes occurring in the apparatus are described on four different time and length scales The Discrete Element Method coupled with Computational Fluid Dynamics, where each particle is considered as a separate entity and its motion in fluid field is calculated, play a central role in the modeling framework. On the macroscale, the Population Balance Model describes the particle...
