圆形破口附近气泡动态特性实验研究

以往对于壁面附近气泡动态特性的研究均是针对完整壁面进行的, 而对带破口壁面附近气泡运动特性的研究很少, 例如舰船结构在遭受药包爆炸冲击波作用后形成破口, 其仍可能会遭受随后生成气泡的二次打击, 破口的存在必定会影响爆炸生成气泡的动力学行为. 本文采用电火花气泡生成与观察实验装置, 对带有破口的壁面附近气泡脉动和射流特性进行研究.通过实验发现, 当气泡在破口同心位置生成时, 破口的存在会使气泡靠近破口一侧形成"腔吸现象", 并使气泡形成对射流. 在此基础上分析了破口大小和无量纲距离对破口附近气泡的影响规律, 最后讨论气泡在破口偏心位置生成时的运动特性, 结果发现破口附近气泡的二次打击威力随偏心距离的增加而增加, 文章旨在为不同边界附近气泡运动规律研究提供参考. 关键词： 气泡 实验 破口 射流

当爆炸气泡在浅水中运动时,同时受到自由面和水底壁面的作用而产生极其复杂的水面现象,气泡的运动特性与在自由场中或单一边界附近处爆炸相比会发生很大变化。为探究其规律,通过电火花诱导气泡实验,利用高速摄影技术对气泡与组合多边界的相互作用进行了研究,总结了自由面距离(γ_f)和壁面距离(γ_w)对气泡运动和水冢类型的影响。并用OpenFOAM进行了数值模拟,分析了距离参数对射流载荷的影响。结果表明:自由面距离参数较壁面距离参数对水冢类型影响更大;射流速度随自由面距离的增大而减小,在0γ_w2时,射流速度随壁面距离的增大先减小后增大;壁面压力与距离呈负相关,射流冲击面积与距离呈正相关。

倾斜壁面附近上升气泡的直接数值模拟

本文利用基于Front Tracking的3D直接数值模拟方法对高粘度流体中倾斜壁面附近上升的气泡进行了直接数值模拟,以研究气泡与壁面相互作用以及壁面附近气泡运动的机理.在不同的壁面倾斜角(10°,30°和50°)下针对Eo数分别等于0.7和10的两种典型工况计算了气泡的变形、运动轨迹和上升速度并与实验进行了对比.发现倾斜壁面使得气泡被压扁,在较大的倾斜角下气泡不对称变形程度更大、由此导致的流场不对称性也更大,表明壁面垂直方向的速度受到抑制是壁面引发升力的原因.对于不同的倾角,气泡最终都会沿着倾斜表面滑动,而且倾角越大,气泡中心越接近壁面.气泡的上升速度则随着倾角的增大而单调减小,同实验结果的对比吻合良好.

DNS of turbulent flow with hemispherical wall roughness

The present study of the effect of roughness density on the mean flow turbulence parameters is motivated by the need for new generation of boundary conditions for multiphase computational multiphase fluid dynamics (CMFD) models applied to boiling flows. Effect of roughness element density on the turbulent flow in a channel is quantified through direct numerical simulations (DNSs). The Navier--Stokes equations are solved using finite element method and bubbles are approximated as rigid near-hemispherical obstacles at the wall. Six different cases were analysed including channel flow with smooth wall and channel flow with rough wall for five different bubble nucleation site densities. Friction factor and the law of the wall was calculated and compared with the previously published results. Existing correlations for nucleating bubble site density dependency on a wall heat flux were used to obtain a relation between the heat flux and the friction factor, leading to the law of the wall dependency on the heat flux. This separate effect study provides new guidelines on how the heat flux in subcooled boiling regime affects the turbulence behaviour near the wall and guides the computational fluid dynamics model development for boiling two-phase flows.     

Comparison between the 3D numerical simulation and experiment of the bubble near different boundaries

Based on the potential flow theory, the vortex ring is introduced to simulate the toroidal bubble, and the boundary element method is applied to simulate the evolution of the bubble. Elastic-plasticity of structure being taken into account, the interaction between the bubble and the elastic-plastic structure is computed by combining the boundary element method (BEM) and the finite element method (FEM), and a corresponding 3D computing program is developed. This program is used to simulate the three-dimensional bubble dynamics in free field, near wall and near the elastic-plastic structure, and the numerical results are compared with the existing experimental results. The error is within 10%. The effects of different boundaries upon the bubble dynamics are presented by studying the bubble dynamics near different boundaries.

Impact of solid particles on cavitation behaviors and laser-induced degradation in aqueous suspension

A method for degrading organic pollutants in suspension by applying laser-induced cavitation is presented. Cavitation bubbles are produced remotely by laser beams, achieving a purpose of non-contact degradation. In this work, laser-induced bubble dynamics in SiO₂ sand suspension were studied by high-speed imaging. Pulsating characteristics of cavitaiton bubbles in the infinite domain and near a solid boundary were investigated among various laser energies and sand concentrations. Furthermore, the extent of degradation after processing in suspension and the mechanism were analyzed. Results indicate that solid particles in the liquid medium reduce the extent of degradation. However, the extent of degradation may rebound at a proper sand concentration. In addition, compared to several small bubbles in a bubble string (in the infinite domain), a single larger bubble (near a solid boundary) has a much higher degradation ability.     

Numerical investigation of shock-induced bubble collapse dynamics and fluid–solid interactions during shock-wave lithotripsy

In this paper we investigate the bubble collapse dynamics under shock-induced loading near soft and rigid bio-materials, during shock wave lithotripsy. A novel numerical framework was developed, that employs a Diffuse Interface Method (DIM) accounting for the interaction across fluid–solid-gas interfaces. For the resolution of the extended variety of length scales, due to the dynamic and fine interfacial structures, an Adaptive Mesh Refinement (AMR) framework for unstructured grids was incorporated. This multi-material multi-scale approach aims to reduce the numerical diffusion and preserve sharp interfaces. The presented numerical framework is validated for cases of bubble dynamics, under high and low ambient pressure ratios, shock-induced collapses, and wave transmission problems across a fluid–solid interface, against theoretical and numerical results. Three different configurations of shock-induced collapse applications near a kidney stone and soft tissue have been simulated for different stand-off distances and bubble attachment configurations. The obtained results reveal the detailed collapse dynamics, jet formation, solid deformation, rebound, primary and secondary shock wave emissions, and secondary collapse that govern the near-solid collapse and penetration mechanisms. Significant correlations of the problem configuration to the overall collapse mechanisms were found, stemming from the contact angle/attachment of the bubble and from the properties of solid material. In general, bubbles with their center closer to the kidney stone surface produce more violent collapses. For the soft tissue, the bubble movement prior to the collapse is of great importance as new structures can emerge which can trap the liquid jet into induced crevices. Finally, the tissue penetration is examined for these cases and a novel tension-driven tissue injury mechanism is elucidated, emanating from the complex interaction of the bubble/tissue interaction during the secondary collapse phase of an entrapped bubble in an induced crevice with the liquid jet.
