Abstract
⺠Multi-phase turbulent flow and coal gasification in an entrained flow gasifier is simulated using LES and RANS. ⺠LES captures unsteady flow structures in both combustion and gasification zones of the gasifier. ⺠Unsteady flow structures affect mixing and char-conversion efficiency. ⺠LES accurately predicts char-conversion efficiency compared to RANS.
