The paper provides an overview of the challenges and progress associated with the task of
numerically predicting particle-laden turbulent flows. The review covers the mathematical …

A multi-dimensional model was used to calculate interactions between spray drops and gas
motions close to the nozzle in dense high-pressure sprays. The model also accounts for the …

A general framework is presented for the modeling of turbulent dispersion in Eulerian Multi-
Phase Flows. The approach is based on a double averaging procedure of the local instant …

Preferential concentration describes the accumulation of dense particles within specific
regions of the instantaneous turbulence field. This phenomenon occurs in dilute particle …

Because of the importance of multiphase flows in a wide variety of industries, including
power, petroleum, and numerous processing industries, an understanding of the behavior …

This book presents a unified treatment of the mechanics of mixtures of several constituents
within the context of continuum mechanics. After an introduction to the basic theory in the …

Gas-solid fluidized beds are widely applied in many chemical processes involving physical
and/or chemical transformations, and for this reason they are the subject of intense research …

A general classification of two-phase flows and a number of possible ways to formulate two-
fluid models are discussed. The two-fluid model is adopted, and a general procedure to …
