This review focuses on direct numerical simulations (DNS) of turbulent flows laden with droplets or bubbles. DNS of these flows are more challenging than those of flows laden with solid particles due to the surface deformation in the former. The numerical methods discussed are classified by whether the initial diameter of the bubble/droplet is smaller or larger than the Kolmogorov length scale and whether the instantaneous surface deformation is fully resolved or obtained via a phenomenological model. Also discussed are numerical methods that account for the breakup of a single droplet or bubble, as well as multiple droplets or bubbles in canonical turbulent flows.
