Abstract: | In this study, turbulence model applications on two-phase flow simulation in a structured packing are investigated using CFD application. Dry pressure drop, irrigated pressure drop, mass transfer and heat transfer are studied by k–ε, RNG k–ε, k–ω and BSL turbulence models. The best results obtained by k–ω and BSL models, but k–ω is recommended because it is more robust than BSL. The mean absolute relative error (MARE) between CFD prediction of k–ω model and experimental data for dry pressure drop, irrigated pressure drop, mass transfer and heat transfer are 16.9%, 10.7%, 8.1%, 0.9%, respectively. |
