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 paper presents a literature review on mechanisms and models for the breakage of
bubbles and drops (fluid particles) in turbulent dispersions. For the mechanisms, four …

A set of closures for two-fluid modelling of adiabatic bubbly flows has been defined as
baseline model, which provides a common basis for further improvement and development …

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 …

In dispersed gas− liquid flows, the bubble size distribution plays an important role in the
phase structure and the interphase forces, which, in turn, determine the multiphase …

The mechanisms and modeling concepts proposed in the literature for the fluid particle (ie,
bubble and drops) breakage phenomena in laminar and turbulent dispersions are …

Bubbly flow is a prototypical two-phase flow problem. The dynamic behavior of bubbles
within a reactor is intrinsically linked to their transport, distribution, and mass transfer, all of …

Taylor flow is a strategy-aimed flow to transfer conventional single-phase into a more
efficient two-phase flow resulting in an enhanced momentum/heat/mass transfer rate, as well …

Prediction of bubble size distribution is of paramount importance for the study of bubble
column reactors. Current kernel functions for coalescence or breakage in CFD-PBM …

Bubble columns are used in many industrial applications, but the complex fluid dynamics
phenomena has limited their design and optimization processes. Computational Fluid …
