A particle-particle Reynolds stress transportation model of swirling particle-laden-mixtures turbulent flows
On the basis of the gas-particle Euler-Euler two-fluid approach, a new particle-particle Reynolds stress transportation model is proposed for closing the constitution equations of particle-laden-mixtures turbulent flows. In this model, binary particle-particle interaction originating from large-scale particle turbulent diffusions are fully considered in view of an extension closure idea of second-order-moment disperse gas-particle turbulent flows. The binary-particles turbulent flows with different density and same diameter are numerically simulated. The number density, the time-averaged velocity, the fluctuation velocity, the multiphase fluctuation velocity correlations, the normal and the shear Reynolds stress are obtained. Simulated results are in good agreement with experimental data. Binary mixture system has a unique transportation behavior with a stronger anisotropy due to particle inertia and multiphase turbulence diffusions. Fluctuation velocity correlation of axial-axial gas-particle is about twice larger than those of axial-axial particle-particle interaction. Moreover, both normal and shear Reynolds stress are redistributed. (C) 2011 The Society of Powder Technology Japan. Published by Elsevier B.V. and The Society of Powder Technology Japan.
