Large-eddy simulation of particle-laden channel flow

Large-eddy simulation of particle-laden turbulent channel flow is investigated for several subgrid models and Stokes numbers with the objective to investigate the accuracy of the subgrid models studied with respect to particle behavior. It is shown that the wall-normal particle velocity and particle velocity fluctuations are reduced compared to DNS, if the filtered fluid velocity calculated in ...

GPU acceleration of Eulerian–Lagrangian particle-laden turbulent flow simulations

Acceleration of an existing MPI-based, particle-laden turbulent flow simulation code is achieved using up to four NVIDIA GPU devices. The overall design is to transfer the entire flow velocity, temperature, and humidity fields to each device, and compute particle trajectories entirely on the GPU hardware. For one-way coupled turbulent flow simulations, accurate simulations can be achieved for l...

Numerical simulation of particle-laden turbulent channel flow

This paper presents results for the behavior of particle-laden gases in a small Reynolds number vertical channel down flow. Results will be presented for the effects of particle feedback on the gas-phase turbulence and for the concentration profile of the particles. The effects of density ratio, mass loading, and particle inertia will be discussed. The results were obtained from a numerical sim...

Large-eddy Simulation of a Particle- Laden Turbulent Channel Flow

Large-eddy simulations of a vertical turbulent channel flow with 420,000 solid particles are performed in order to get insight into fundamental aspects of a riser flow. The question is addressed whether collisions between particles are important for the flow statistics. The turbulent channel flow corresponds to a particle volume fraction of 0.013 and a mass load ratio of 18, values that are rel...
