单裂隙流-固耦合渗流的试验研究

通过对较大尺寸的单裂隙岩体试块进行不同侧面加载的渗流试验,在实验室里开展了单裂隙流 固耦合渗流研究,模拟核废料贮藏库的围岩自由面的最危险部位的渗流量 应力耦合状态。分析了裂隙岩体渗流与应力的耦合机理,获得了几种典型情况下的试验数据,并拟合出不同应力条件下单裂隙岩体渗流量与应力间数学经验公式。从而说明并非任一方向的应力增加都能使渗流量减小,而是裂隙岩体的渗流量随着双向压应力的增加而减少,随着平行于裂隙面方向的单向压应力的增加而增加。缝隙开度虽然随着法向应力的增加而逐渐减小,但最终不可能完全闭合,所以,此时流量不可能为零。同时,在试验过程中还通过闭环控制来实现被加载面的均匀受力,这为大尺寸岩体试验提供了一种很好的加载方法。     

相近韦伯数条件下激波波后液滴初期变形的影响机制

以实验结合数值模拟与理论分析的方法,研究韦伯数在2 100~2 700区间内,不同组合流动参数对液滴破碎初期变形的影响与作用机制。实验中通过高速摄影捕捉到一系列具有明显差异的液滴变形模态,表明在相近韦伯数下液滴的初期变形仍受到气流速度、密度等具体流动参数的显著影响。以刚性球体替代液滴进行外流数值模拟,利用球体表面气动力分布推算出的液滴表面变形趋势与实际变形形态吻合,表明液滴的初期变形特征与外流流动分离和涡特征具有一致性。对流场和理论变形数据的分析显示,流动分离发展阶段和稳定阶段对液滴作用力以及它们所诱导的液滴变形特征存在很大差异;分离发展与液滴变形过程的特征时间之比可由气液密度比的平方根表示,它决定了液滴早期变形的基本形态。分离发展阶段所占时间比例越高,即实验中气液密度比越高,则液滴更倾向于发展出单个显著的环形突起,反之则趋于形成多个相对均衡的突起。     

Computational analysis of techniques to determine extensional viscosity from entrance flows

Recent computational analysis of entrance flows (Mitsoulis et al. 1998) suggests that the entrance pressure drop is insensitive to large changes in steady extensional viscosity-a result that directly contradicts a large body of experimental work in this area. A re-examination of entrance flows using numerical simulations is presented in this work which shows that entrance pressure drops do depend on the steady extensional viscosity, provided the extension rate in the entrance flow is large enough. Numerical simulations are presented using both the strain thinning and thickening versions of the Phan-Thien–Tanner (PTT) constitutive model. Several techniques for extracting extensional viscosity from entrance pressure are applied to the results of these simulations. The resulting predictions of extensional viscosity are compared to the steady extensional viscosity curves predicted by the PTT constitutive model used to generate the simulated pressure drop curves. The analytical techniques examined here are shown to provide reasonably accurate estimates of the steady extensional viscosity. This work also clearly demonstrates the advantage of using variable power-law coefficients for the rheological properties, used as inputs to the analyses, to capture the extensional behavior at deformation rates below the power law region more accurately.

Effect of void fraction and friction factor models on the prediction of pressure drop of R134a during downward condensation in a vertical tube

The theoretical flow models of homogeneous and separated flow are applied to in-tube condensation to predict the pressure drop characteristics of R134a. The homogeneous flow model is modified by ten different dynamic viscosity correlations and various alternative correlations of total, frictional and momentum pressure drops to take account of the partial condensation inside the tube. Numerical analyses were performed to determine the average and local homogeneous wall shear stresses and friction factors by means of a CFD program. The equivalent Reynolds number model is modified by six different two-phase friction factors to determine the total condensation pressure drop in the separated flow model. The refrigerant side total pressure drops, frictional pressure drops, friction factors and wall shear stresses are determined within a ±30% error band. The importance of using the alternative total, momentum and frictional pressure drop correlations for the homogeneous flow model is also shown.     

An experimental study of planar entry flow of rubber compound

An automated rheometer based on an injection molding machine is developed for the evaluation of entry flow problems. Several entry flow geometries having different contraction and expansion angles and different channel lengths are tested. Two pressure transducers are flushmounted along the die length and a displacement transducer is installed to measure the screw motion. Signals generated by the pressure transducers and displacement transducer are supplied to an A/D converter and an IBM PC/AT computer. The pressure losses for a rubber compound are measured between two cross-sections along the flow direction. The time evolution of pressure with overshoot during flow before and after the entry region is observed. At low flow rates the pressure drops of the expansion flow are larger than those of the contraction flow. At high flow rates the pressure drops of the contraction flow become higher than those of the expansion flow. A ratio of the pressure drop to absolute pressure before the entry is found to be almost independent of flow rate.     

A phenomenological model for wall effects on the deformation of an ellipsoidal drop in viscous flow

The simple phenomenological model developed by Maffettone and Minale (J Non-Newt Fluid Mech 78:227–241, 1998) for the deformation of a single ellipsoidal drop in a viscous flow is extended here to predict the drop deformation in confined viscous flows. The model is capable of describing the transient evolution of an ellipsoidal drop subjected to a generic flow field. The steady-state predictions are analytical and recover the theoretical limits of Shapira and Haber (Int J Multiph Flow 16:305–321, 1990) for steady small deformation of a drop in a confined simple shear flow. Model predictions are compared with data available in the literature that cover a wide range of parameter values, and the agreement is good.     

Low-Reynolds-number motion of a deformable drop between two parallel plane walls

The motion of a three-dimensional deformable drop between two parallel plane walls in a low-Reynolds-number Poiseuille flow is examined using a boundary-integral algorithm that employs the Green’s function for the domain between two infinite plane walls, which incorporates the wall effects without discretization of the walls. We have developed an economical calculation scheme that allows long-time dynamical simulations, so that both transient and steady-state shapes and velocities are obtained. Results are presented for neutrally buoyant drops having various viscosity, size, deformability, and channel position. For nearly spherical drops, the decrease in translational velocity relative to the undisturbed fluid velocity at the drop center increases with drop size, proximity of the drop to one or both walls, and drop-to-medium viscosity ratio. When deformable drops are initially placed off the centerline of flow, lateral migration towards the channel center is observed, where the drops obtain steady shapes and translational velocities for subcritical capillary numbers. With increasing capillary number, the drops become more deformed and have larger steady velocities due to larger drop-to-wall clearances. Non-monotonic behavior for the lateral migration velocities with increasing viscosity ratio is observed. Simulation results for large drops with non-deformed spherical diameters exceeding the channel height are also presented.     

Variation of drag coefficients in an interacting drop stream

Variation of the drag coefficient of closely spaced drops in a stream injected into a turbulent flow is studied experimentally. Three different regions are identified. In the first region, close to the injector, drops flow in the wake of each other. The drag coefficient in this region is much smaller (by a factor of 4 to 5) than the standard drag coefficient, and its magnitude is dependent on the drop initial spacing. Shortly downstream of the injection point, the transition region starts, where the drag coefficient increases rapidly approaching the drag coefficient of a single isolated drop. And further down-stream when drops are dispersed significantly, the drag coefficient will behave the same way as a single isolated drop.     

Wormhole Propagation Behavior and Its Effect on Acid Leakoff under In Situ Conditions in Acid Fracturing

In acid fracturing, excessive acid leakoff is thought to be the main reason that limits fracture propagation and live acid penetration distance. Although acid leakoff has been studied under experimental conditions, the acid leakoff theory developed under experimental conditions cannot be extended to in situ conditions because the injection rate or pressure drop across a core plug is fixed in the experiments. In this paper, we used a model that couples a two-scale continuum model simulating wormholing in the invaded zone and a reservoir flow model for the compressed zone to simulate acid leakoff process under in situ conditions. Based on this model, we investigated wormhole propagation behavior and its effect on acid leakoff under in situ conditions. The study shows different wormhole propagation behavior under in situ conditions from that under experimental conditions. Wormholes grow fast at the beginning and slow down at later time due to the rise of reservoir pressure caused by the leakoff and the growth of the invaded zone. In oil reservoirs, wormholing has minor effect on acid leakoff because of small compressibility and relatively high reservoir fluid viscosity, but in gas reservoirs, the influence of wormholing on acid leakoff becomes significant due to large compressibility and low reservoir fluid viscosity. Acid viscosity has more notable influence on acid leakoff in gas reservoirs than in oil reservoirs.     

Pulsatile flows of Leslie–Ericksen liquid crystals

Capillary pulsatile flows of calamitic (rod-like) and discotic nematic liquid crystals are analyzed using the Leslie–Ericksen equations for low-molar mass liquid crystals, using computational, analytical, and scaling methods. The dependence of flow-enhancement and power requirement on frequency, amplitude, pressure drop wave-form, molecular geometry is characterized. The unique roles of orientation-dependent local viscosity and backflow (orientation-driven flow) on flow-enhancement and power requirement are elucidated. The local viscosity effect is shown to be a significant factor in flow-enhancement at all pressure drops, but only affects power requirement at higher pressure drops. Backflow has weak effects on flow-enhancement and large effects on power requirements at low average pressure drops. Amplitude, frequency, and molecular geometry effects are clearly manifested through viscosity and backflow. A detailed comparison with predictions for power law fluids shows a clear correspondence between these non-Newtonian fluids and nematic liquid crystals. The unique distinguishing feature of pulsatile flows of liquid crystals is found to be backflow, such that power increases with increasing frequency, a featured that does not exist in other non-Newtonian fluids due to lack of a strong flow driven by restructuring/re-orientation processes. Future use of these new results may include measurements of viscoelastic parameters that control backflow.
