520 |a Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is used to simulate a bubble column reactor operating in the bubbly (homogenous) regime. The Euler-Euler two-fluid model, integrated with the population balance model (PBM), is adopted to compute the flow and bubble size distribution (BSD). The CFD-PBM model is validated against published experimental data for BSD, global gas holdup, and oxygen mass transfer coefficient. The sensitivity of the model with respect to the specification of boundary conditions and the bubble coalescence/breakup models is assessed. The coalescence model of Prince and Blanch (1990) provides the best results, whereas the output is shown to be insensitive to the breakup model. The CFD-PBM study demonstrates the importance of considering the BSD in order to correctly model mass transfer. Results show that the constant bubble size assumption results in a large error in the oxygen mass transfer coefficient, while giving acceptable results for gas holdup. PRACTITIONER POINTS: Constant bubble size (CBS) and population balance model (PBM) are compared for a bubble column reactor. Both PBM and CBS can predict gas holdup; however, PBM can correctly predict gas-liquid mass transfer whereas CBS cannot. Best practices for selecting coalescence, breakup, and drag models are determined
