Abstract

In this chapter, the Direct numerical simulation (DNS) of flow past particles is described. DNS is a first-principles approach for modeling interphase momentum transfer in gas-solids flows that does not require any further closure as the flow around the particles is fully resolved. In this chapter, immersed boundary method (IBM) is described where the governing Navier-Stokes equations are modeled with exact boundary conditions imposed at each particle surface using IBM and the resulting three dimensional time-dependent velocity and pressure fields are solved. Since this model has complete description of the gas-solids hydrodynamic behavior, one could extract all the Eulerian and Lagrangian statistics for validation and development of more accurate closures which could be used at coarse-grained simulations described in other chapters.
