Benchmarking Radioactive Particle Tracking (RPT) with Laser Doppler Anemometry (LDA)
Abstract
In current work, Radioactive Particle Tracking (RPT) experiment has been performed in a rectangular bubble column having dimensions reported by Pfleger et al. (1999). As has been reported in recent decades, RPT has come to be accepted now as a reliable and versatile non-invasive flow measurement technique for mapping the flow fields in multiphase reactors.In this work, the objective has been to benchmark RPT (which is a very versatile technique) against reported data (Pfleger et al. 1999) with Laser Doppler Anemometry (LDA) (which is claimed to be a very accurate technique at low volume fractions of the dispersed phase). We show that RPT does remarkably well both in terms of versatility and accuracy. Overall, this work helps to establish the accuracy standards of the RPT technique.

Vieira et al. [308] found time-averaged axial liquid velocity and gas hold-up compare well against experimental results; modified k-# model delivers the best results, being a good compromise between simplicity and accuracy.
“Nevertheless, the time-averaged axial liquid velocity and the gas hold-up compare well against experimental results [158,309,310]. They conclude that the modified k -# model delivers the best results, being a good compromise between simplicity of modeling and accuracy of the predictions.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
