In OpenFOAM, none of the turbulence models have a spray source
term as circled. Without this source term spray penetration is
overโpredicted in LES simulation [1], so it is necessary to
implement it in the code. The model for the source term is

- Liquid length is sensitive to B1, but vapor boundary is not - The upper row of plots below is vapor boundaries obtained from LES simulation; bottom row is Rayleigh scattering images from ECN - At early times, vapor penetrations are overโpredicted, but later vapor shapes are well-captured

where Fj,d is the drag force on the parcels and is modeled assuming
a linear drag law [2]; Cd is the drop drag coefficient; is gas density; is droplet density; rd is droplet radius; Vrel is magnitude velocity between droplet and gas.
The droplet dispersion velocity is induced by turbulence. It is
chosen randomly from Gaussian distribution [2]

where variance . k is sub โ grid kinetic energy for LES
simulation and turbulent kinetic energy for RANS. Currently we
update the dispersion velocity in every time step to ensure that
there are sufficient turbulence effects on spray droplets.
