Abstract
In this paper, a new formalism for the filtered density function (FDF) approach is developed for the treatment of turbulent polydispersed two-phase flows in LES simulations. Contrary to the FDF used for turbulent reactive single-phase flows, the present formalislm is based on Lagrangian quantities and, in particular, on the Lagrangian filtered mass density function (LFMDF) as the central concept. This framework allows modeling and simulation of particle flows for LES to be set in a rigorous context and various links with other approaches to be made. In particular, the relation between LES for particle simulations of single-phase flows and Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) is put forward. Then, the discussion and derivation of possible subgrid stochastic models used for Lagrangian models in two-phase flows can set in a clear probabilistic equivalence with the corresponding LFMDF.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
