In this chapter the general equations of laminar, non-Newtonian, non-isothermal, incompressible flow, commonly used to model polymer processing operations, are presented. Throughout this chapter, for the simplicity of presentation, vector notations are used and all of the equations are given in a fixed (stationary or Eulerian) coordinate system. 

As described in Chapter 3, Section 5.1 the application of the VOF scheme in an Eulerian framework depends on the solution of the continuity equation for the free boundary (Equation (3.69)) with the model equations. The developed algorithm for the solution of the described model equations and updating of the free surface boundaries is as follows ... 

Trajectory models require spatiaUy and temporaUy resolved wind fields, mixing-height fields, deposition parameters, and data on the spatial distribution of emissions. Lagrangian trajectory models assume that vertical wind shear and horizontal diffusion are negligible. Other limitations of trajectory and Eulerian models have been discussed (30).

Euleria.n Models. Of the Eulerian models, the box model is the easiest to conceptualize. The atmosphere over the modeling region is envisioned as a well-mixed box, and the evolution of pollutants in the box is calculated following conservation-of-mass principles including emissions, deposition, chemical reactions, and atmospheric mixing.

The Eulerian multiphase model is used to predict the dispersed gas-liquid flow in the airlift loop reactor. It involves a set of momentum and continuity equations for each phase. Model equation coupling is achieved through the pressure and interphase exchange coefBcdents [5],... 

Eulerian two-fluid model coupled with dispersed itequations was applied to predict gas-liquid two-phase flow in cyclohexane oxidation airlift loop reactor. Simulation results have presented typical hydrodynamic characteristics, distribution of liquid velocity and gas hold-up in the riser and downcomer were presented. The draft-tube geometry not only affects the magnitude of liquid superficial velocity and gas hold-up, but also the detailed liquid velocity and gas hold-up distribution in the reactor, the final construction of the reactor lies on the industrial technical requirement. The investigation indicates that CFD of airlift reactors can be used to model, design and scale up airlift loop reactors efficiently. 

An Eulerian-Eulerian (EE) approach was adopted to simulate the dispersed gas-liquid flow. The EE approach treats both the primary liquid phase and the dispersed gas phase as interpenetrating continua, and solves a set of Navier-Stokes equations for each phase. Velocity inlet and outlet boundary conditions were employed in the liquid phase, whilst the gas phase conditions consisted of a velocity inlet and pressure outlet. Turbulence within the system was account for with the Standard k-e model, implemented on a per-phase basis, similar to the recent work of Bertola et. al.[4]. A more detailed description of the computational setup of the EE method can be found in Pareek et. al.[5].

In this model, two level-set functions (d, p) are defined to represent the droplet interface (d) and the moving particle surface (p), respectively. The free surface of the droplet is taken as the zero in the droplet level-set function 0> and the advection equation (Eq. (3)) of the droplet level-set function (droplet surface. The particle level-set function (4>p) is defined as the signed distance from any given point x in the Eulerian system to the particle surface ... 

The methods used for modeling pure granular flow are essentially borrowed from that of a molecular gas. Similarly, there are two main types of models the continuous (Eulerian) models (Dufty, 2000) and discrete particle (Lagrangian) models (Herrmann and Luding, 1998 Luding, 1998 Walton, 2004). The continuum models are developed for large-scale simulations, where the controlling equations resemble the Navier-Stokes equations for an ordinary gas flow. The discrete particle models (DPMs) are typically used in small-scale simulations or...

An alternative approach (e.g., Patterson, 1985 Ranade, 2002) is the Eulerian type of simulation that makes use of a CDR equation—see Eq. (13)—for each of the chemical species involved. While resolution of the turbulent flow down to the Kolmogorov length scale already is far beyond computational capabilities, one certainly has to revert to modeling the species transport in liquid systems in which the Batchelor length scale is smaller than the Kolmogorov length scale by at least one order of magnitude see Eq. (14). Hence, both in RANS simulations and in LES, species concentrations and temperature still fluctuate within a computational cell. Consequently, the description of chemical reactions and the transport of heat and species in a chemical reactor ask for subtle approaches as to the SGS fluctuations. 

The two most usual equations of state for representation of experimental data at high pressure are the Murnaghan and Birch-Murnaghan equations of state. Both models are based on finite strain theory, the Birch-Murnaghan or Eulerian strain [26], The main assumption in finite strain theory is the formal relationship between compression and strain [27] ...

Aerosol production and transport over the oceans are of interest in studies concerning cloud physics, air pollution, atmospheric optics, and air-sea interactions. However, the contribution of sea spray droplets to the transfer of moisture and latent heat from the sea to the atmosphere is not well known. In an effort to investigate these phenomena, Edson et al.[12l used an interactive Eulerian-Lagrangian approach to simulate the generation, turbulent transport and evaporation of droplets. The k-e turbulence closure model was incorporated in the Eulerian-Lagrangian model to accurately simulate... 

Generally, 3-D models are essential for calculating the radial distributions of spray mass, spray enthalpy, and microstructural characteristics. In some applications, axisymmetry conditions may be assumed, so that 2-D models are adequate. Similarly to normal liquid sprays, the momentum, heat and mass transfer processes between atomization gas and metal droplets may be treated using either an Eulerian or a Lagrangian approach.
