Modeling of Fluid Dynamics, Mass Transfer, and Chemical Reaction in Bubbly Flows


Modeling of Fluid Dynamics, Mass Transfer, and Chemical Reaction in Bubbly Flows

Rzehak, R.; Krauß, M.

Mass transfer from gas bubbles to the surrounding liquid or vice versa is an important consideration in chemical engineering. Frequently such absorption or desorption processes are accompanied by a chemical reaction in the liquid phase. Compared with the fluid dynamics of bubbly flows, modeling and simulation of these processes is much less developed. The present work shows some recent advances made in validating closures for the Eulerian two-fluid framework of interpenetrating continua.

Keywords: dispersed gas liquid multiphase flow; Euler-Euler two-fluid model; CFD simulation; fluid dynamics; mass transfer; chemical reaction; absorption
