Abstract

Multiscale phenomena represent a common challenge in many areas, including chemical engineering. Multiscale problems in gas-liquid flows, accompanied with highly turbulent flow and complex geometry of internals, make it difficult to achieve the fast and accurate simulation. In this report, special emphasis is focused on multiscale modeling strategies of multiphase flow problems of practical interest liking gas-liquid flows with droplets. Sophisticated interface-tracking algorithms such as Volume-of-Fluid, Level-set, and Front-tracking methods are briefly overviewed. Multiscale simulation of a variety of industrial applications such as atomization and sprays is subsequently discussed. This presentation paved the way for multiscale simulation of gas-liquid flows in industrial processes to optimize the operating conditions in manufacturing, determine proper reactor design and scale-up, and correctly interpret data in research and pilot-plant work.
