17 Simulation approach Euler-Euler needed due to high loading Turbulence with RANS Drag and gravity forces Wide size distribution: broad range of bubble velocities 2D steady state simulation on 20,000 nodes takes several hrs. On a single processor (1GHz) 3D transient simulations needed for oscillations 3D transient requires weeks per simulation! Compared to single-phase Two-Fluid model has to use coarse grids to keep computing times realistic 33 Influence of sparger Flow field Gas fraction (Double and single ring spargers, left and right, resp.) 34 17

21 Status Bubble column simulation Mixture model is a cheap way for qualitative trends For dense bubbly flows coalescence and break-up can seriously change the flow field Multi-Fluid model for quantitative results Computational costs of adding more phases is large Bubble-break-up model needs attention Break-up and coalescence very sensitive to surfactants Euler-Euler with LES turbulence model promising 41 Stirred tank with glass beads in water LES snapshot Derksen (2003) 42 21
22 Stirred Tank Reactor Complex turbulent flow field Drop size Shape of drop size distribution Flow field variation with stirrer speed 43 Drops in a stirred tank reactor Experimental findings: Drop size decrease with increasing vessel size Shape of drop size distribution independent of vessel size and stirrer speed After change in stirrer speed a new steady state drop size distribution requires more stirrer revolutions for larger vessels (Colenbrander, 2000) 44 22

28 Axial variation of mean sojourn time 55 Conclusions LES/RANS evaluation Guha et al. (2008) Observed bottom recirculation loop stronger than top not found in either simulation Azimuthally averaged solid velocities with LES slightly better than with Euler-Euler RANS Solids turbulent kinetic energies, similar for both models, over-predict at impeller plane and underpredict at all other axial locations Slip velocities from RANS order of magnitude lower than those from LES Mean sojourn times from LES agree with experiments 56 28
