Fluid Dynamics and Transport Phenomena Unsteady RANS and Detached Eddy Simulation of the Multiphase Flow in a Co-Current Spray Drying

A detached eddy simulation (DES) and a k-ε-based Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) calculation on the co-current spray drying chamber is presented. The DES used here is based on the Spalart-Allmaras (SA) turbulence model, whereas the standard k-ε (SKE) was considered here for comparison purpose...
