3. System physics representation

Numerous physical models are required to account for the complexity of these phenomena. The most commonly used models include turbulence models and those that take into account the two-phase nature of flows. This is the most evolving area of calculation codes, and we will describe here the most useful models for process engineers.

3.1 Taking turbulence into account

3.1.1 Problem position

Most flows simulated in industrial applications are turbulent. Turbulence is characterized by the development...
