Abstract

An Eulerian continuum approach to modeling the motion of dispersed particles within the framework of the large-eddy simulation method is developed. The approach is based on a kinetic equation for the filtered probability density function for the particle velocity in a turbulent flow. Models for the subgrid turbulent stresses of the dispersed phase are presented.
