Numerical modeling of three-phase slurry bubble column: Study of particle effects

In this study, a numerical investigation has been conducted to describe the pulp zone properties by predicting the local gas holdup and bubble size distribution accounting for the effect of bubble-particle aggregate on the flow dynamic of slurry bubble column. Modelling calculations have been conducted using Eulerian–Eulerian multiphase approach with k-ε turbulence for the liquid phase. This work is carried out considering a finite volume …
