The eddy interaction model (EIM) is modified based on damping functions obtained for the direct numerical simulation (DNS) of turbulent flow through a duct. The resulting model is used to simulate droplet dispersion in wave-plate demisters, in which low intensity turbulent flows occur. Results of pa...
