基于有限元模型,模拟、分析深海采矿系统悬链线立管在海流和水面船运动约束下的动力响应。结果表明：悬链线立管的最大等效应力和最大位移随时间呈周期性变化,且存在半个周期的相位差;当水面船运动到最高点时,悬链线立管位移达到最大值。悬链线立管最大 等效应力和最大位移随水面船运动位移幅值的增加而增加,随运动周期的增加而减小。进一步对比发现,水面船运动位移和周期对立管等效应力的影响大于对其位移的影响。

深水钢悬链线立管疲劳寿命计算方法

基于悬链线理论及立管与海床接触模型,建立了一种估算立管疲劳寿命的方法,模型中考虑了深水浮式平台运动过程中立管悬链线形状的变化及触地区域海床接触刚度大小对疲劳寿命的影响。分析表明:浮式平台的运动会引起立管悬链线形状的改变以及立管内部应力的重新分布,这是引起立管疲劳损坏的主要原因;随着海床土体刚度的增大,立管疲劳寿命逐渐降低,为了获得准确的立管寿命,有必要对海底土体进行更为全面细致的研究。通过与现有分析方法比较,本方法具有计算方便快捷,结果可靠等优点。研究可为钢悬链线立管的设计分析提供一定的参考。

Numerical calculations for two-phase jet flow of a mixture of pulverized-coal and gas

In this paper, Euler-Lagrange type equations are used to describe the jet flow of a mixture of pulverized-coal and gas, which is an unsteady axisymmetric two-phase flow. By means of the finite-difference method, the coal particle's distribution, velocity and trajectory in the flow field are obtained. The coal particles are represented by a finite number of computational particles. Each particle's diameter is randomly assigned according to a given distribution. The states of the computational particles are different from each other. Turbulence is accounted for in a stochastic model. Explicit time-splitting scheme is used to calculate the strongly coupling interphase term. The numerical results are reasonable. The comparison between the numerical results and the experiment data for the case of the oil droplet injection shows good agreement. This numerical technique can be extended to the calculation of other two-phase flows of dilute particles or a droplet system. Mr. Mei Renwei also participated in the work of this paper.     

Critical flow in a chemically reacting two-phase multicomponent mixture

A model that describes the critical flow of chemically reacting, two-phase, multicomponent mixtures in channels of constant cross section is discussed. As a consequence of an assumed interphase thermal and mechanical equilibrium the applicability of the model is restricted to situations where one phase is intimately mixed with the other, such that choking is determined by the sound speed in the homogeneous mixture. It is shown that under certain conditions the highly non-linear temperature dependency of the reaction rate promotes the possibility of a multiplicity of steady state solutions to the problem.     

An investigation on near wall transport characteristics in an adiabatic upward gas–liquid two-phase slug flow

The near-wall transport characteristics, inclusive of mass transfer coefficient and wall shear stress, which have a great effect on gas–liquid two-phase flow induced internal corrosion of low alloy pipelines in vertical upward oil and gas mixing transport, have been both mechanistically and experimentally investigated in this paper. Based on the analyses on the hydrodynamic characteristics of an upward slug unit, the mass transfer in the near wall can be divided into four zones, Taylor bubble nose zone, falling liquid film zone, Taylor bubble wake zone and the remaining liquid slug zone; the wall shear stress can be divided into two zones, the positive wall shear stress zone associated with the falling liquid film and the negative wall shear stress zone associated with the liquid slug. Based on the conventional mass transfer and wall shear stress characteristics formulas of single phase liquid full-pipe turbulent flow, corrected normalized mass transfer coefficient formula and wall shear stress formula are proposed. The calculated results are in good agreement with the experimental data. The shear stress and the mass transfer coefficient in the near wall zone are increased with the increase of superficial gas velocity and decreased with the increase of superficial liquid velocity. The mass transfer coefficients in the falling liquid film zone and the wake zone of leading Taylor bubble are lager than those in the Taylor bubble nose zone and the remaining liquid slug zone, and the wall shear stress associated falling liquid film is larger than that associated the liquid slug. The mass transfer coefficient is within 10⁻³ m/s, and the wall shear stress below 10³ Pa. It can be concluded that the alternate wall shear stress due to upward gas–liquid slug flow is considered to be the major cause of the corrosion production film fatigue cracking.     

考虑海底接触的钢悬链式立管触地点动力响应以及疲劳损伤分析

基于考虑接触的钢悬链式立管SCR(Steel Catenary Riser)触地点处的结构特性,分别采用了考虑管土分离的线性截断模型以及包含土体吸力效应的帽盖模型来描述P-y曲线。通过改变上端浮体的垂荡运动幅度、土体吸力系数以及海床刚度,对SCR触地点处的动力响应以及疲劳损伤特性进行了分析。分析结果表明,SCR触地点的垂向位移、弯矩、等效应力以及疲劳损伤均随着浮体垂荡运动幅度的增加而呈上升趋势。SCR触地点的垂向位移随着土体吸力系数的增大由高幅低频响应转变为低幅高频响应。SCR触地点的疲劳损伤随着海床刚度的增加呈现先稳定再增加再稳定的趋势。     

Transportation characteristics of gas–solid two-phase flow in a long-distance pipeline

In this study, experiments on fly ash conveying were carried out with a home-made long-distance positive-pressure pneumatic conveying system equipped with a high performance electrical capacitance tomography system to observe the transient characteristics of gas–solid two-phase flow. The experimental results indicated that solids throughput increased with increasing solids–gas ratio when the conveying pipeline was not plugged. Moreover, the optimum operating state was determined for the 1000 m long conveying pipeline with a throttle plate of 26 orifices. At this state the solids throughput was about 12.97 t/h. Additionally, the transportation pattern of fly ash gradually changed from sparse–dense flow to partial and plug flows with increasing conveying distance because of the conveying pressure loss. These experimental results provide important reference data for the development of pneumatic conveying technology.     

An analytic solution of dense two-phase flow in a vertical pipeline

According to a mathematical model for dense two-phase flows presented in theprevious paper,a dense two-phase flow in a vertical pipeline is analytically solved,and theanalytic expressions of velocity of each continuous phase and dispersed phase arerespectively derived The results show that when the drag force between two phases dependslinearly on their relative velocity,the relative velocity profile in the pipeline coincides withDarcy’s law except for the thin layer region near the pipeline wall,and that the theoreticalassumptions in the dense two-phase flow theory mentioned are reasonable.     

Adiabatic and diabatic two-phase venting flow in a microchannel

The growth and advection of the vapor phase in two-phase microchannel heat exchangers increase the system pressure and cause flow instabilities. One solution is to locally vent the vapor formed by capping the microchannels with a porous, hydrophobic membrane. In this paper we visualize this venting process in a single 124 μm by 98 μm copper microchannel with a 65 μm thick, 220 nm pore diameter hydrophobic Teflon membrane wall to determine the impact of varying flow conditions on the flow structures and venting process during adiabatic and diabatic operation. We characterize liquid velocities of 0.14, 0.36 and 0.65 m/s with superficial air velocities varying from 0.3 to 8 m/s. Wavy-stratified and stratified flow dominated low liquid velocities while annular type flows dominated at the higher velocities. Gas/vapor venting can be improved by increasing the venting area, increasing the trans-membrane pressure or using thinner, high permeability membranes. Diabatic experiments with mass flux velocities of 140 and 340 kg/s/m² and exit qualities up to 20% found that stratified type flows dominate at lower mass fluxes while churn-annular flow became more prevalent at the higher mass-flux and quality. The diabatic flow regimes are believed to significantly influence the pressure-drop and heat transfer coefficient in vapor venting heat exchangers.     

Gas-particle two-phase turbulent flow in a vertical duct

Two-phase gas-phase turbulent flows at various loadings between the two vertical parallel plates are analyzed. A thermodynamically consistent turbulent two-phase flow model that accounts for the phase fluctuation energy transport and interaction is used. The governing equation of the gas-phase is upgraded to a two-equation low Reynolds number turbulence closure model that can be integrated directly to the wall. A no-slip boundary condition for the gas-phase and slip-boundary condition for the particulate phase are used. The computational model is first applied to dilute gas-particle turbulent flow between two parallel vertical walls. The predicted mean velocity and turbulence intensity profiles are compared with the experimental data of Tsuji et al. (1984) for vertical pipe flows, and good agreement is observed. Examples of additional flow properties such as the phasic fluctuation energy, phasic fluctuation energy production and dissipation, as well as interaction momentum and energy supply terms are also presented and discussed.

Applications to the relatively dense gas-particle turbulent flows in a vertical channel are also studied. The model predictions are compared with the experimental data of Miller & Gidaspow and reasonable agreement is observed. It is shown that flow behavior is strongly affected by the phasic fluctuation energy, and the momentum and energy transfer between the particulate and the fluid constituents.     

Effect of liquid viscosity on the stratified-slug transition in horizontal pipe flow

The effect of liquid viscosity on the initiation of slug flow was studied in horizontal 2.52 and 9.53 cm pipelines. The results show the stabilizing effect of viscosity predicted by Lin & Hanratty, and are at variance with analyses which use a long-wavelength inviscid approximation. For very viscous liquids a stability analysis which recognizes that slugs originate from a train of small-wavelength sinusoidal waves seems consistent with the measurements.
