A stochastic discrete model is proposed for simulating the dynamic behaviors of gas-solid systems. In the model, the motions of solid phase are obtained by calcu-lating individual particle motions while gas flow is obtained by solving the Navier-Stokes equation including two-phase interaction. For the calculation of solid phase,the motion process of each particle is decomposed into the collision process and suspension process. Momentum conservation of collision mechanics controls the interaction between colliding particles, while the state of each suspended particle is fully dominated by the equation of force balance over that particle. Inaddition to gravity, drag force and pressure, other unclear factors are described as random force in the suspension process. As a result, the proposed model has given some nu-merical simulations of gas-solid systems, in which different random forces are used.It indicates that the stochastic discrete model can be used to simulate qualitatively the dynamic behaviors of gas-solid two-phase flow.
