Droplet dispersion in turbulent gas flows is numerically simulated using eddy interaction model (EIM) and Eulerian-Lagrangian method. Reynolds stress transport model (RSTM) with enhanced wall treatment and shear stress transport (SST) k-ω model are used for simulating the turbulent airflow. Comparison between the numerical simulations and available experimental data shows that eddy lifetime constant (C L ) can affect the results significantly, and by selecting suitable values of the eddy lifetime constant, both turbulence models give reasonable predictions of droplet removal efficiency. Simulations of gas droplet flow in the eliminators with various drainage channel dimensions show that the drainage channel length (L DC ) has a greater effect on droplet removal efficiency than the drainage channel width (W DC ).
