Multi-Fluid Computational Fluid Dynamic Predictions of Turbulent Bubbly Flows Using an Elliptic-Blending Reynolds Stress Turbulence Closure
The accurate prediction of bubbly flows is critical to many areas of nuclear reactor thermal hydraulics, mainly, but not only, in relation to the key role bubble behavior plays in boiling flows. Large scale computations of flows with hundreds of thousands of bubbles are possible at a reasonable comp...
