CFD simulation of the dynamic flow behavior in a bubble column reactor

In this project report an Eulerian two-phase Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) model for modelling bubble columns is presented. This model is able to predict the bubbly flow parameter such as gas holdup, contact surface area, air volume fraction, pressure drop, and velocity magnitude to understandi...
