A closed-loop analysis of phase distribution is presented. This analysis is based on the use of a two-fluid model. It is shown that the treatment of the turbulence distribution in the continuous phase is crucial if accurate predictions are to be made. A K-κ model is used to model turbulence in this study. Finally, recommendations are made as to how the state-of-the-art can be advanced.
