1 Syamlal and O'Brien drag

1.1 Formulas

The Syamlal and O'Brien drag formula can be written as follows (according to the nomenclature used in the code):

$\beta' = \frac{3 \alpha \beta \rho_b}{4 V_r^2 d_a} C_{D_s} U_r$

The terminal velocity $V r$ can be calculated using the formula:

$V_r = \frac{1}{2} \left ( A - 0.06 \texttt{Re} + \sqrt{\left( 0.06 \texttt{Re} \right)^2 + 0.12 \texttt{Re} \left( 2B - A \right) + A^2}\right)$

where $A = β 4.14$ , $B = 0.8β 1.28$ if $\beta \leq 0.85$ and $B = β 2.65$ if $β > 0.85$ .

$C_{D_s}$ is found using the Della Valle formulation:

$C_{D_s} = \left ( 0.63 + 4.8 \sqrt{\frac{V_r}{\texttt{Re}}} \right )$

with

$\texttt{Re} = \frac{d_a U_r}{\nu_b}$

1.2 Implementation

The Syamlal and O'Brien drag model can be implemented in OpenFOAM by dividing the $β' < math > bytheproductofthetwovolumefractions < math > αβ$ to obtain $K$ .

N.B. Every drag formulation has to be divided by the product $αβ$ before beeing implemented in twoPhaseEulerFoam because this product has been extracted for numerical reasons.

The code is the following.

2 Gidaspow's drag (Ergun - Wen&Yu)

2.1 Formulas

The Gidaspow formulation of the drag factor uses the Ergun correlations if $β < 0.8$ :

$\beta' = 150 \frac{\alpha^2 \nu_b}{\beta^2 \rho_b d_a^2} + 1.75 \frac{\rho_b \alpha}{\beta d_s} U_r$

If $\beta \geq 0.8$ , the Wen and Yu correlation is used:

$\beta' = \frac{3 C_{D_s} \alpha \beta \rho_b U_r}{4 d_a} \beta^{-2.65}$

where $C_{D_s} = 0.44$ if $\texttt{Re} \geq 1000$ , and

$C_{D_s} = \frac{24}{\texttt{Re}} \left( 1 + 0.15 \texttt{Re}^{0.687} \right)$

elsewhere ( $\texttt{Re} < 1000$ ).
