Modeling of gas-to-particle mass transfer in turbulent flows

This Brief focuses on the dispersion of high-porosity particles, their entrainment into the vapor-laden stream, and the condensation of vapor onto the particles.

The authors begin with a simple/static problem, focusing on transport within the particle.

They go on to consider the high-resolution simulation of particles in a turbulent flow and the time-dependent evolution of the fluid-particle fields.

Finally, they examine the more computationally-affordable large-eddy simulation of gas-to-particle mass-transfer.

The book ends with a summary and challenges as well as directions for the area.
