“…It is also simpler and its computational cost is also lower, however some accuracy is lost in the final results since coalescence and single bubble breakage is not considered. Never the less, Euler approximation is adequate and valid for modeling bubble induced multiphase flows (Studley and Battaglia, 2011;Pfleger et al, 1999;Bertola et al, 2003;Bitog et al, 2011, Krishna et al, 2000. Basic assumptions for a two-fluid model, using an Eulerian approach are the following, (Luo and Al-Dahhan, 2011):…”

“…The ideal development of microalgae happens in the range 16-27ºC. Temperatures less than 16ºC downregulate the development of microalgae, while temperatures higher than 35ºC are deadly for some species [15]. Biomass concentration on algal photo-bioreactor is significantly affected by hydraulic retention time (HRT) [16].…”

“…Some authors have also developed models which calculate biomass production in bioreactors taking into account -apart from the biological processes-the main physical phenomena (variable light and temperature, mixing, gas transfer or others) (VunjakNovakovic, et al, 2005, García-Camacho et al, 2012. In this field, computational fluid dynamics has also been applied for designing and modeling photobioreactors, as reviewed by Bitog et al (2011).…”

As the number of parameters taken into account increases, the accuracy of the response normally does so, too.…”
