竖直振动管中颗粒的上升运动

通过实验和数值模拟研究了竖直振动管中颗粒的受激运动.将一直管插入静止的颗粒料层中,并在管内预填充一定高度的颗粒,对直管施加竖直振动.振动强度较弱时,管内的颗粒在重力作用下向下运动;当振动达到一定的强度时,管内颗粒不下降反而克服重力的作用向上运动,随着振动强度的进一步提高,即使不在管内预填充高于颗粒床层的颗粒,颗粒也会沿着振动管逆重力向上运动.颗粒的上升高度与运动速度强烈依赖于振动强度.通过高速相机记录颗粒和直管在单个振动周期内的运动,并结合离散元(DEM)法模拟管内颗粒的受力变化规律,给出了颗粒上升的机理.此研究对实现散体物料的定向输运提供了一种新方法.

Filtration of aerosol particles by elliptical fibers: a numerical study

Filtration is an important technology for nanoparticle control and reduction of human exposure to nanoparticles. Filtration by non-circular fibers is gaining more attention in search for better filter quality; elliptical fibers have extra significance because they may be used in simple models of dust loading. We carry out numerical simulation to investigate filtration by fibers with elliptical cross-sections. The drag force on individual fibers is in good agreement with analytical solutions for elliptical fibers obtained from the cell model. Our simulation covers mechanisms for particle capture due to interception, inertial impaction, and diffusion. Single-fiber efficiencies of different elliptical fibers are computed. The figure of merit, which is an indicator of the ratio of the collection efficiency to the pressure drop, is used to evaluate the performance of different elliptical fibers. It is found that blunt and close to circular fibers perform better for particles dominated by the effects of interception and inertial impaction, whereas long and slim fibers perform better for particles dominated by the diffusion effect. For very small nanoparticles, the diffusion effect is important and long and slim elliptical fibers may improve the filter performance.

High-power TE11 and TM11 circular polarizers in oversized waveguides at 70 GHz

Elliptical deformation of oversized, smooth-wall circular waveguides can produce choosable elliptical or circular polarization from a linearly polarized TE11 or TM11 mode used as intermediate linearly polarized modes in TEO1 to HE11 mode conversion sequences in electron cyclotron resonance heating (ECRH) of magnetically confined thermonuclear fusion plasmas with high-power gyrotrons. Mode coupling in elliptically distorted overmoded circular waveguides has been studied theoretically and experimentally in order to optimize TE11 (and TM11) polarizers (I.D.=27.79 mm) for the 1 MW/70 GHz long-pulse (3s) ECRH system on the Garching Stellarator W VII-AS. Coupling coefficients for ellipticity coupling of non-degenerate modes are given (coupled-mode differential equations formalism). The polarization converters essentially consist of smooth-wall circular waveguides which are gradually squeezed. A sine-squared function of the length coordinate is used to get an almost elliptical crosssection in the middle and circular cross sections at both ends. Arbitrary elliptical polarization states can be generated introducing an extremely low level (<<1%) of undesired spurious modes. Well defined differential phase characteristics have been achieved.     

Modular interference characteristic of two-mode fiber

The modular interference characteristics of circular-core and elliptical-core two-mode fibers are investigated in theory. The intensity distribution and figure of two-lobe mode patterns are evaluated and simulated quantitatively for different phase difference change between LP01 and LPeven11 mode. The interference mode patters of elliptical-core and circular-core two-mode fibers are compared, the result shows that the two-lobe interference patters of the two-mode fibers generate energy exchange and oscillation, and thedifference is that the interference mode patterns of circular-core two-mode fiber are almost elliptical, while the interference mode pattern of elliptical-core two-mode fiber is approximately circular on condition that proper selection of the ellipticity. Their two-dimensional (2D) profile determines the choice of the core shape of the information pick-up fiber.     

Chaotic mixing of granular materials in two-dimensional tumbling mixers

We consider the mixing of similar, cohesionless granular materials in quasi-two-dimensional rotating containers by means of theory and experiment. A mathematical model is presented for the flow in containers of arbitrary shape but which are symmetric with respect to rotation by 180 degrees and half-filled with solids. The flow comprises a thin cascading layer at the flat free surface, and a fixed bed which rotates as a solid body. The layer thickness and length change slowly with mixer rotation, but the layer geometry remains similar at all orientations. Flow visualization experiments using glass beads in an elliptical mixer show good agreement with model predictions. Studies of mixing are presented for circular, elliptical, and square containers. The flow in circular containers is steady, and computations involving advection alone (no particle diffusion generated by interparticle collisions) show poor mixing. In contrast, the flow in elliptical and square mixers is time periodic and results in chaotic advection and rapid mixing. Computational evidence for chaos in noncircular mixers is presented in terms of Poincare sections and blob deformation. Poincare sections show regions of regular and chaotic motion, and blobs deform into homoclinic tendrils with an exponential growth of the perimeter length with time. In contrast, in circular mixers, the motion is regular everywhere and the perimeter length increases linearly with time. Including particle diffusion obliterates the typical chaotic structures formed on mixing; predictions of the mixing model including diffusion are in good qualitative and quantitative (in terms of the intensity of segregation variation with time) agreement with experimental results for mixing of an initially circular blob in elliptical and square mixers. Scaling analysis and computations show that mixing in noncircular mixers is faster than that in circular mixers, and the difference in mixing times increases with mixer size.
