Abstract

An accurate prediction of particle dispersion is an essential issue for reactive two-phase flows as they occur in IC-engines. It is also a challenging application for Large Eddy Simulation (LES) based Eulerian–Lagrangian methods. The main objective of this work is to assess the state-of-the-art model capabilities of the LES based Eulerian–Lagrangian method as implemented into the commercial CFD code, FLUENT/ANSYS. This is achieved by carrying out various parameter studies that may enable a deeper understanding of the interactions between the numerics and modeling involved, and thus an increasing of the predictive ability and the reliability of transfer of findings from one configuration to others. In this report, special attention is paid to the prediction of the particle preferential accumulation, because of its importance for simulations of mixing and combustion in turbulent reacting two-phase flows. The combustion itself is not considered. The conclusions are based on a systematic variation of relevant flow parameters, such as the Reynolds number and the particle Stokes number, so that a wide range of applications is covered. Therefore, several particle–laden flow configurations, such as two plane channel flows, a free jet and an evaporating spray at low temperature, have been investigated. The results presented in this report are especially for the two plane channel flows characterized by low and high Reynolds numbers, respectively. It was observed that the maximum preferential accumulation occurs at a constant Stokes number and that this number does not depend on the Reynolds number. The magnitude of the accumulation, however, depends on the Reynolds number of the flow. The effect of a sub-grid dispersion model on the particle accumulation was found to be less pronounced for particles with characteristic time scales in the order of the Kolmogorov scale.
