This paper presents a literature review on the mechanisms and models of coalescence of
fluid particles. For the mechanisms, five categories are summarized, namely, turbulence …

This literature survey focuses on the application of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) in
various aspects of the fluidized bed reactor. Although fluidized bed reactors are used in …

With the dramatic increase in the international oil price, gas-to-liquid processes of Fischer−
Tropsch (FT) synthesis, methanol synthesis, and dimethyl ether (DME) synthesis have …

A computational fluid dynamics (CFD)-code has been developed using finite volume method
in Eulerian framework for the simulation of axisymmetric steady state flows in bubble …

Gas–liquid mass transfer in a bubble column in both the homogeneous and heterogeneous
flow regimes was studied by numerical simulations with a CFD–PBM (computation fluid …

This work presents an Euler–Euler (E–E) Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) model
developed for flow inside a rectangular air–water bubble column, in which we have also …

In the first part of the review, published literature regarding the CFD modelling of single‐
phase turbulent flow in stirred tank reactors with radial flow impellers was critically analysed …

This work is aimed at investigating the turbulent two-phase flow and the bubble size
distribution (BSD) in aerated stirred tanks by experiments and computational fluid dynamics …

A Eulerian–Eulerian model incorporating the kinetic theory of granular flow was applied to
describe the gas–solid two-phase flow in fluidized bed polymerization reactors. The model …

The CFD-PBM coupled model was validated in a bubble column with organic liquids under
industrial conditions. Experimental data of the gas holdup, bubble size distribution and mass …
