%X A separated flow model with stochastical trajectories has been developed to describe the fluidflow in a bubble stirred ladle.The bubble dispersion,turbulent characteristics and gas-liquidinteractions can be predicted by this mathematical model.The bubble flow as a dispersedphase is treated in a Lagrangian frame of reference and the analysis of the turbulent flow forliquid phase is conducted in a Eulerian field.The interactions between bubbles and liquidphases are considered as a bubble source term in the control equation for a continuous phase.The Monte Carlo sampling method is used to determine the bubble trajectories.The homoge-neous flow model is also taken into consideration so that it can be compared with the sepa-rated flow model.Numerical predictions using a water model of a ladle show that the pre-dicted results of the separated flow model agree satisfactorily with the experimental results,but the prediction of the homogeneous flow model are not in good agreement with the experi-mental results.
