This contribution is aimed at CFD simulation of hydrodynamics of gas-liquid external loop rectangular airlift reactor using Euler-Euler model. Commercial code Fluent 6.3 is used to solve model equations. The goal of the work was to compare simulation results with experimental data available in literature. Simulated horizontal profiles of liquid and bubble velocity and gas holdup were compared with data from literature.

Tato práce je zaměřena na simulaci hydrodynamiky airlift reaktoru pomocí Euler-Euler modelu. K řešení modelových rovnic je použit program Fluent. Cílem práce bylo srovnat výsledky simulací s experimentálními daty dostupnými v literatuře. Byly srovnány horizontální profily rychlosti kapaliny a plynu a zádrže plynu.
