Abstract
This paper presents a collection of numerical simulation data which provides a reference for the assessment of various statistical/stochastic models in incompressible homogeneous particle-laden turbulent flows. Four different homogeneous flow configurations are studied, namely, homogeneous shear flow, homogeneous plane strain flow, homogeneous axisymmetric expansion and contraction. An Eulerian–Lagrangian formulation is used for the two-phase flow simulation. A Fourier pseudospectral method is used for the solution of the Eulerian carrier-phase equations without resorting to any turbulence model. The Lagrangian equations for the dispersed phase are integrated using a modified Stokes drag. For the shear flow, both monodispersed and polydispersed particles have been considered. In this paper, only the results that are relevant for assessment of various statistical models for both the fluid and dispersed phases are presented.
