This paper reviews the use of discrete particle models (DPMs) for the study of the flow
phenomena prevailing in fluidized beds. DPMs describe the gas-phase as a continuum …

Current worldwide commercial activities in converting natural gas to fuels and chemicals, or
gas-to-liquids technology use slurry bubble column reactors with column sizes considerable …

A simple coupled Volume of Fluid (VOF) with Level Set (LS) method (S-CLSVOF) for
improved surface tension implementation is proposed and tested by comparison against a …

Gas–solid–liquid flows are widely found in chemical engineering, eg the processes of
mixing, wet ball milling, and screw kneading, for which the numerical modeling is now a …

Gas–liquid–solid fluidized bed reactors (FBRs) are of considerable importance as proved by
their widespread use and popularity in various industrial processes, which results in …

A three dimensional transient model is developed to simulate the local hydrodynamics of a
gas–liquid–solid three-phase fluidised bed reactor using the computational fluid dynamics …

In recent years coupled DEM–CFD models have been successfully utilized to simulate
fluidized particle systems in the bubbling regime. In this paper we report on DEM–CFD …

Extensive numerical simulations were carried out to study the problem of bubble formation at
submerged orifices under constant inflow conditions. A combined volume-of-fluid and level …

This paper presents an extensive review of the kinetics, hydrodynamics, mass transfer, heat
transfer and mathematical as well as computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling of Low …

Multi-channel gas–liquid-solid systems have attracted considerable attention across
chemical, energy, and biochemical industries due to their potential applications, yet the …
