Abstract This paper deals with the numerical simulation of gas-solid two-phase flows in an Eulerian-Lagrangian scheme. The particle tracks are calculated using a recently developed exponential Lagrangian scheme, and the approach presently used for the computation of fluid phase is based on a modified Lattice-BGK model. Different from earlier publications, the present study employs a two-way coupling mechanism to handle the interactions between carrier phase and dispersed phase in the model. This new model is applicable to simulating gas-solid two-phase flows. For example, based on the scheme, we have recaptured some phenomena of planar laminar particle-laden flow over a backward-facing step in this research, and found a new interesting phenomenon.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
