Cover Story: The design and optimization of photobioreactors (PBR) benefit from the development of robust and quantitatively accurate computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models, which incorporate the complex interplay of fundamental phenomena. We propose a comprehensive computational model for tubular PBR equipped with glass sponges. The simulation model offers three submodels for hydrodynamics, light supply, and biomass kinetics based on lattice Boltzmann methods (LBM). The novel mesoscopic model is applied to simulate a tubular PBR with transparent walls and an internal sponge structure. We showcase the coupled simulation results and validate specific submodel outcomes by comparison to experiments. View this paper
