An LES/FDF model was developed by the authors to investigate the SGS effect on the particle motion in the gas-particle two-phase plane wake flow.The simulation results of dispersion rate for different particles were compared with the results without using the FDF model.It was shown that the large eddy structure is the dominant factor influencing the particle diffu-sion in space for small particles(small Stokes-number particles),but for intermediate or large diameter particles,the influence of the sub-grid scale eddies on the dispersion rate is in the same order as that of the large eddies.The sub-grid scale eddies increase the particle dispersion rate in most time,but sometimes they decrease the dispersion rate.The sub-grid scale particle dispersion rate is decided not only by the intensity of sub-grid scale eddies and the Stokes number of the particles,but also by the large eddy structure of the flow field.For the particles in isotropic turbulence,the dispersion rate decreases as the particle diameter increases.

The rapid progress in information technology has provided huge opportunities to fully utilize all kinds of information resource. Materials, energy, and information are the three indispensable strategic resources of human society. Information is also one of the most active factors of social production. Vision is an essential approach for human beings to cognize the world: among all the information that human beings can perceive, 83% come from vision. Visual media, with image, video and digital geometry as their representatives, have already become a hot research area.
A filtered density function (FDF) transport equation was derived for the fluid velocity seen by the particles in gas-particle two-phase flow. An LES/FDF simulation of a two-phase plane wake flow was carried out. The simulation results were compared with both the experimental photograph and the simulation results without using the FDF model, and proved that the LES/FDF model can clearly improve the spatial dispersion of the particle phase.
The time-dependent variation of airborne particle concentration for different sizes in a test chamber was numerically predicted with drift-flux model. The performance of the drift-flux model for particle transport in different kinds of airflow fields was analyzed. The results show the drift-flux model can predict the transport of indoor fine particles reasonably well. When the air flow field varies slowly, the model can predict both the time-dependent variation ratio of the particle concentration and final stable concentration very well, and the difference for particles with different sizes can be also well predicted. When the air flow varies drastically, the accuracy of the model is decreased due to the neglect of the particles’ independent convective terms in the air flow.
