## Abstract Packed columns are widely used in the chemical process industries. The optimum operation of these columns requires an even distribution of gas and liquid flows. This paper describes a method for modeling the flow pattern which develops above the gas inlet system using a computational fl

## Abstract A threeβdimensional CFD model has been developed to predict liquid phase velocities in bubble columns. An agreement was observed between the predicted and the experimental data available in the published literature. The validated CFD model has been extended for the simulation of macroβm
## Abstract In this paper a CFD model for a bubble column reactor undergoing a first order reaction A β B is developed. The reactor operates in the homogeneous bubbly regime and has a diameter __D__~T~ = 1 m and height __H__~T~ = 5 m. The incoming gas stream contains inerts, varying in proportion f
