A new turbulence modulation in second-order moment two-phase model and its application to horizontal channel*

A new second-order moment two- phase turbulence model accounting for particle wake effect was established and used to simulate gas-particle flow in a horizontal channel for different values of wall roughness. The results show that compared with the model without considering the particle wake effect, the present model gives simulation results agreeing much better with the experimental results for the gas turbulence modulation, but the predicted results for particle motion with the two kinds of models are quite close.
