RÉSUMÉ

The ability of a RANS approach, coupled with a Lagrangian particle tracking technique, to predict particle dispersion and deposition in a high Reynolds number duct flow has been assessed for spherical particles in the range 5-500 μm, based on the assumption of one-way coupling. The results are compared with LES-based predictions and single-phase flow data. Predictions of the time-dependent particle dispersion and deposition show good agreement with LES results, with similar agreement in the spanwise direction for all but the largest particles. In the latter case, analysis of the forces acting on the particles, and mean relative slip velocities, indicates that this is due to an under-prediction of the spanwise drag force. This results in LES predicting that the largest particles tend to concentrate at the corners of the duct floor, whilst for RANS they deposit with a more even distribution.
