In chemical reactor engineering, simple concepts are used for describing the flow in a reactor. Turbulent two-phase flow processes, however, are characterized by a broad range of time and length scales. Two-phase reactors operated in the turbulent regime therefore qualify for multiscale modeling. Multiscale models are being developed in such diverging fields as chemical reaction engineering (among which are packed bed reactors, fluidized beds, and risers), chemical vapor deposition reactor modeling, turbulent single-phase and two-phase flow simulations (among which is combustion), and materials science. The common aspects of these multiscale models are highlighted: they all comprise a coarse-grained simulation for the macroscale and some type of fully resolved microscale simulation. Different simulation techniques are used however. Processes involving single-phase flow may require one of three computational fluid dynamics (CFD) techniques: direct numerical simulations (DNSs), large eddy simulations (LESs), and Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS)-based simulations. For two-phase flows, two CFD options are open: Euler-Lagrangian (or particle tracking) and Euler-Euler (or two-fluid). The characteristics of all these approaches are discussed.
