The multidimensional prediction/design models for chemical reactions and transport processes in multi-phase flow of gas/liquid and gas/particle reactors are under investigation. Emphasis is given to the finite-domain type models in which the governing equations are integrated over discrete volumes inside the reactor. The processes that occur in various phases, the transfer between phases as well as the models of turbulence, agitators, heat and mass flow are described with their full interactions. A computation method for turbulent two-phase flow and reaction kinetics in bioreactors and a computational two-dimensional model for turbulent gas particle flow in a fluidized bed reactor is given. Simulation results of flow and reactions in bioreactors and fluidized bed reactors are compared with available experimental data and recommendations for the design of commercial scale reactors are given.
