  6. THE CONTEXT: TWO-PHASE FLOW NUMERICAL SIMULATION Euler-Euler vs Euler-Lagrange Euler-Lagrange Euler-Euler Particle ensemble viewed as a continuous field Individual particle trajectories are computed • Easy modeling of particle movements and interactions. • Robust and accurate if enough particles are used. • Size distributions easy to describe. • Easy to implement physical phenomena (e.g. heat and mass transfer, wall-particle interaction). • Easy treatment of dense zones. • Similarity with gaseous equations. • Direct transport of Eulerian quantities. • Similarity with gaseous parallelisme. • Delicate coupling with combustion. • Difficult to run in parallel. • Each ‘particle’ actually represents an ensemble of particles. • Difficult description of polydispersion. • Difficulty of crossing sprays treatment. • Limitation of the method in very dilute zones.

CONCLUSIONS AND PERSPECTIVES CONCLUSIONS • The effects of rounding errors onthe repetitivity of LES was demonstrated and analysed. • An efficient implementation of a Lagrangian formulation is related to the study of partitioning algorithms, data structure, load-balancing capabilities and parallel facilities, between others. • The increase of computer poweropens a new way for two-phase Lagrangian simulations that were considered prohibitive years ago. • Validation of the Lagrangian module in an Homogeneous Isotropic Turbulence (HIT) which allows a simple analysis of several aspects of performances and particle behavior. • A more complete study and validation has been done in a particle-laden bluff-body configuration. Results are in good agreement with experiments. Feasibility demonstrated of load-balancing capabilities.

  41. CONCLUSIONS AND PERSPECTIVES PERSPECTIVES • Modeling • Evaporation model (Ph.D. F. Jaegle). • Treatment of particle-wall interactions (Ph.D. F. Jaegle). • Improvement of particle injection (Ph.D. J.M. Senoner+ C.
