Eulerian-Eulerian and Eulerian-Lagrangian methods in two phase flow

Abstract

This paper describes a Finite Element Method - Flux Corrected Transport (FEM-FCT) approach with an unstructured adaptive grid scheme to the simulation of two-phase flow. The gas equations are computed using an Eulerian frame of reference, while the particle transport is computed using both Eulerian and Lagrangian frames of reference. One dimensional shock wave attenuation was investigated to evaluate the performance of these methodologies and the gas-solid interphase transport models.
