The alternative methods for numerical simulation of dispersed flows are briefly reviewed before going on to a more detailed discussion of the Force Coupling Method (FCM). In this method, the fluid is simulated numerically in a Eulerian framework with a fixed mesh. The particles are represented by a set of body forces applied locally to the fluid that correspond to the force each particle exerts on the flow. The application of the FCM to gas-solids flows is discussed.
