  8. Eulerian fluid representation Incompressible and isothermal Newtonian fluid. Frictional Reynolds number: Governing equations (non-dimensional): Mass balance Momentum balance Direct numerical simulations (DNS), i.e. turbulence from first principles

  9. Lagrangian approach - Characteristic parameters • Inertial prolate ellipsoidal particles - a: radius in minor-axis - b: radius in major-axis • Lagrangian approach - Translational and rotational motions of each individual particle • Finite number of particles ~106 • Point-particle assumption • Smaller than Kolmogorov length scale • Particle Reynolds number

  10. Two-way coupled method (Force-coupling) Drag force is the point-force on the particle. Body force in the momentum equation of fluid: Staggered grid system : drag force and lift force on the particle i z y x

  11. Two-way coupled method (Torque-coupling) Cauchy’s equation of motion, i.e. the principle of conservation of linear momentum, can be expressed in Cartesian tensor notation as: where Tjiis a stress tensor and fpis a body force. For a Newtonian fluid, the stress tensor is:

  12. Two-way coupled method (Torque-coupling) Tjiis a stress tensor in a fluid-particle mixture: Micropolar fluids Eringen (1966) Angular velocity of the fluid

  13. Two-way coupled method (Torque-coupling) • - the effect of the particles on the motion of the fluid-particlemixture • ωm - the field of micro-rotation and represent the angular velocity of the rotation of the solid particles. • The micro-rotation fieldis obtained from a transport equationfor angular momentum.(see Eringen1966 & Lukaszewicz1999)

  14. Two-way coupled method (Torque-coupling) From tensor analysis: any vector -Nmcorresponds an anti-symmetric tensor of second order that contains the same information as the vector (see e.g. Irgens 2008). The torque vector -Nmcan thus be obtained from a particle stress tensor In practice, the torque should be the sum of torques over all particles inside the grid cell under consideration.

  15. Two-way coupled method (Force- and torque-coupling) Momentum equation with force- and torque-coupling: where :
