The hydrodynamic study is simulated using Eulerian—Eulerian multiphase model. The phases, in this model, are treated as inter- penetrating continua represented by a volume fraction at each point of the system. The Reynolds averaged mass and momentum balance equations are solved for each of the phases. The governing equations are given below:
Continuity equation:
