Abstract

This paper is concerned with the numerical study of gas–liquid flow in bubble columns by large eddy simulations (LES). The Euler–Euler approach is used to describe the equations of motion of the two-phase flow. The mean velocities and the fluctuating velocities are obtained. It is found that, when the drag, lift and virtual mass forces are used, the computed results in agreement with experimental transient behavior can be captured.
