Abstract
Calculation work is carried out in the present project to study the effect of different parameters on hydrodynamics of gas-liquid flow by using CFD. The steady state and transient, three dimensional simulations are performed of the whole bubble column for various inlet gas and sparger designs. A standard k-ε is used to describe turbulence occurring in the continuous fluid. Results show he asymmetric recirculation stronger with an increase in the number of holes giving better mixing. The gas hold-up increased with superficial gas velocity but independent of the sparger design at high velocity. Comparison of simulation results with the previous experimental work data has provided a successful validation of the model.
