Abstract

A new method for the formulation of a probability density function (PDF) transport equation for a separated two-phase flow in the context of LES has been developed and implemented for a two-phase system of disbursed water droplets suspended in a carrier gas. Marginal PDF transport equations are presented for each phase, and a statistically equivalent set of Itô stochastic differential equations are derived for each marginal PDF equation. The system considered consists of a 2D temporally developing counter-flow mixing layer gas phase, one-way coupled to to an initially stagnant dilute disbursed liquid droplet phase. Both phases are formulated in the full velocity-scalar PDF context and simulated via a full 'stand-alone' Lagrangian particle Monte-Carlo procedure.
