Internal gas velocity fluctuations and their effects on the mist diffusion process were examined in a long horizontal pipe to understand oil mist transportation, particularly in the laminar-to-turbulent flow transition region. Three hot-wire anemometers and aerosol concentration monitors were used to deduce these effects as the two-phase mist flow gradually developed in the stream-wise direction. We found significant axial mist diffusion at Reynolds numbers (Re) < 1000 because of passive scalar transport by Poiseuille flow. However, this diffusion was restricted by the non-zero inertia of the mist at a Stokes number, O(10−5), relying on the Brownian motion of the mist. At Re > 2400, a sharp mist waveform was maintained by a turbulent flow with active radial mixing. New data were obtained within the range of 1000 < Re < 2400, which cannot be explained by interpolation between the above-mentioned two states. The mist concentration displays multiple temporal peaks at Re < 2000 owing to perturbations of localized turbulence as well as radial anisotropy as being conveyed more than 2000-diameters in distance. This behavior is caused by intermittent disturbances induced by the pipe wall roughness, which sharply distorts the wall-aligned laminar mist layer left by parabolic axial stretching of local laminar flow. 相似文献

The dynamical behavior of inertial disk-like particles in turbulent vertical channel flow is investigated by an Eulerian–Lagrangian point-particle approach. Gravity effects on distribution, translation, rotation and orientation statistics of non-spherical particles modeled as oblate spheroids have been studied both in an upward and a downward flow and compared with results obtained in the absence of gravity. Altogether 12 different particle classes have been studied, with inertia and shape parameterized by means of Stokes number St and aspect ratio λ ≤ 1. The St = 5 disk-like particles distribute more evenly across the channel in upward than in downward flow. The gravity effect on the particle concentration diminishes with large inertia and the spheroid shape has only a modest influence. Although the gravity significantly affects the streamwise and wall-normal mean slip velocities with increasing inertia, the particle shape rarely has any impact on the translational motion, except for the mean wall-normal velocity. The fluctuations of the velocity of disk-like particles are mainly ascribed to inertia, whereas the gravity and shape only have marginal effects. The presence of gravity is moreover found to have a negligible effect on the particles’ orientation and rotation, in spite of the striking effect of λ on the orientation and rotation seen in the near-wall region. The tendency of the disks to align their symmetry axis orthogonal to the fluid vorticity in the channel center is stronger for particles with modest inertia. In the near-wall region, however, oblate spheroids preferentially align with the fluid vorticity for St >> 1. The observed behavior is believed to be caused by the influence of the gravity force on the turbophoresis; i.e. that inertial particles move towards low-turbulence regions. 相似文献

As seen in textbooks of polymer physics, a linear polymer chain can be modeled as a filament of connected beads. This concept can also be adapted to fibers and, for example, flexible fibers can be modeled by considering a stretch force, bending and torsion torques with a non-slip condition between adjacent beads, following the particle simulation method. In predicting fiber motions and their relating rheological properties, the importance of hydrodynamic interactions should be analyzed, so in this work we study the effect of hydrodynamic interactions on the behavior of a single flexible fiber under shear using Stokesian dynamics simulation with a 11N × 11N mobility matrix, where N is the aspect ratio of the fiber. Our results indicate that hydrodynamic interaction becomes significant when the fiber is highly flexible. 相似文献

A downward flow of glass bead particles in a vertical pipe is investigated using a two-component LDV/PDPA for a range of Re (6400 < Re < 24,000) and a constant particle loading (m = 0.7). Two particle sizes of 70 and 200 μm are considered in the present work. For the 70 μm particles, the presence of the particles dampens the gas-phase turbulence intensity at the lowest value of Re investigated (8300) compared with the single-phase flow at the same Re. As Re increases, the gas turbulence increases, and for Re > 13,800 the gas turbulence is enhanced compared with the single-phase flow at the same Re. For the 200 μm particles, the intensity also increases with Re and is enhanced for all values of Re investigated, except at the lowest value of Re investigated (6400). At this value, the gas turbulence is equal to that of single-phase flow at the same Re. The observed trend in the gas-phase turbulence modulation with Re is proposed to be due to the change in the segregation patterns and in the average volume fractions of the particles with increasing Re. More importantly, the present experimental results suggest that, consideration of either the gas and particle characteristic length scales or the particle Reynolds number solely is insufficient to predict gas-phase turbulence modulation in gas–particle flows. 相似文献

Unsteady gravity-driven flow of a thin slender rivulet of a non-Newtonian power-law fluid on a plane inclined at an angle α to the horizontal is considered. Unsteady similarity solutions are obtained for both converging sessile rivulets (when 0 < α < π/2) in the case x < 0 with t < 0, and diverging pendent rivulets (when π/2 < α < π) in the case x > 0 with t > 0, where x denotes a coordinate measured down the plane and t denotes time. Numerical and asymptotic methods are used to show that for each value of the power-law index N there are two physically realisable solutions, with cross-sectional profiles that are ‘single-humped’ and ‘double-humped’, respectively. Each solution predicts that at any time t the rivulet widens or narrows according to |x | (2N+1)/2(N+1) and thickens or thins according to |x | N/(N+1) as it flows down the plane; moreover, at any station x, it widens or narrows according to |t | ?N/2(N+1) and thickens or thins according to |t | ?N/(N+1). The length of a truncated rivulet of fixed volume is found to behave according to |t | N/(2N+1). 相似文献

Although the discharge flow of spherical materials has been extensively explored, the effect of particle shape on discharge is still poorly understood. The present work explores the two-dimensional discharge flow fields of noncircular particles using the soft-sphere-imbedded pseudo-hard particle model method. Rectangular particles having different aspect ratios (Ra = 1, 1.5, 2–5) and regular polygonal particles having different numbers of sides (Ns = 3–8, 10) are discharged through hopper beds having different orifice widths (Di = 40, 70.77, 99.13, 125.74, 151.13 mm). The discharge rates of differently shaped particles in different beds are consistent with Beverloo’s relation. Moreover, the flow fields are computed and evaluated to study the effects of Ra, Ns, and Di on particle discharge. The characteristics of particle–particle connections in the discharge process are evaluated according to the temporal evolution and spatial distribution of the contact points. Additionally, the effect of the initial packing on the discharge profile is investigated. The findings help clarify the discharge of noncircular particles. 相似文献

Mars Exploration Rovers (MERs) experienced mobility problems during traverses. Three-dimensional discrete element method (DEM) simulations of MER wheel mobility tests for wheel slips of i = 0, 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 0.9, and 0.99 were done to examine high wheel slip mobility to improve the ARTEMIS MER traverse planning tool. Simulations of wheel drawbar pull and sinkage MIT data for i ⩽ 0.5 were used to determine DEM particle packing density (0.62) and contact friction (0.8) to represent the simulant used in mobility tests. The DEM simulations are in good agreement with MIT data for i = 0.5 and 0.7, with reasonable but less agreement at lower wheel slip. Three mobility stages include low slip (i < 0.3) controlled by soil strength, intermediate slip (i ∼ 0.3–0.6) controlled by residual soil strength, and high slip (i > 0.6) controlled by residual soil strength and wheel sinkage depth. Equilibrium sinkage occurred for i < 0.9, but continuously increased for i = 0.99. Improved DEM simulation accuracy of low-slip mobility can be achieved using polyhedral particles, rather than tri-sphere particles, to represent soil. The DEM simulations of MER wheel mobility can improve ARTEMIS accuracy. 相似文献

A numerical study is presented for the effect of wall roughness on the deposition of solid spherical particles in a fully developed turbulent channel flow based on large eddy simulation combined with a Lagrangian particle-tracking scheme. The interest is focused on particles with response times in wall units in the range of 2.5 ≤ τp+ ≤ 600 depositing onto a vertical rough surface consisting of two-dimensional transverse square bars separated by a rectangular cavity. Predictions of particle deposition rates are obtained for several values of the cavity width to roughness element height ratio and particle response time. It is shown that the accumulation of particles in the near wall region and their preferential concentration in flow areas of low streamwise fluid velocity that occur in turbulent flows at flat channels are significantly affected by the roughness elements. Particle deposition onto the rough wall is considerably increased, exhibiting a subtle dependence on the particle inertia and the spacing between the bars. The observed augmentation of deposition coefficient can be attributed to the flow modifications induced by the roughness elements and to the inertial impaction of particles onto the frontal deposition area of the protruding square bars. 相似文献

Solar cracking of methane is considered to be an attractive option due to its CO2 free hydrogen production process. Carbon particle deposition on the reactor window, walls and exit is a major obstacle to achieve continuous operation of methane cracking solar reactors. As a solution to this problem a novel “aero-shielded solar cyclone reactor” was created. In this present study the prediction of particle deposition at various locations for the aero-shielded reactor is numerically investigated by a Lagrangian particle dispersion model. A detailed three dimensional computational fluid dynamic (CFD) analysis for carbon deposition at the reactor window, walls and exit is presented using a Discrete Phase Model (DPM). The flow field is based on a RNG k–ε model and species transport with methane as the main flow and argon/ hydrogen as window and wall screening fluid. Flow behavior and particle deposition have been observed with the variation of main flow rates from 10–20 L/min and with carbon particle mass flow rate of 7 × 10−6 and 1.75 × 10−5 kg/s. In this study the window and wall screening flow rates have been considered to be 1 L/min and 10 L/min by employing either argon or hydrogen. Also, to study the effect of particle size simulations have also been carried out (i) with a variation of particle diameter with a size distribution of 0.5–234 μm and (ii) by taking 40 μm mono sized particles which is the mean value for the considered size distribution. Results show that by appropriately selecting the above parameters, the concept of the aero-shielded reactor can be an attractive option to resolve the problem of carbon deposition at the window, walls and exit of the reactor. 相似文献

Fine particles play a significant role in many industrial processes. To study the dynamic behavior of fine particle and their deposition in rock fractures, the pneumatic conveying of fine particles (approximately 100 μm in diameter) through a small-scale horizontal slit (0.41 m × 0.025 m) was studied, which is useful for the sealing technology of underground gas drainage in coal mining production. The CFD–DEM method was adopted to model the gas-particle two-phase flow; the gas phase was treated as a continuum and modeled using computational fluid dynamics (CFD), particle motion and collisions were simulated using the DEM code. Then, the bulk movement of fine particles through a small-scale horizontal slit was explored numerically, and the flow patterns were further investigated by visual inspection. The simulation results indicated that stratified flow or dune flow can be observed at low gas velocities. For intermediate gas velocities, the flow patterns showed pulsation phenomena, and dune flow reappeared in the tail section. Moreover, periodic flow regimes with alternating thick and sparse stream structures were observed at a high gas velocity. The simulation results of the bulk movement of fine particles were in good agreement with the experimental findings, which were obtained by video-imaging experiments. Furthermore, the calculated pressure drop versus gas velocity profile was investigated and compared with relative experimental findings, and the results showed good agreement. Furthermore, the particle velocity vectors and voidage distribution were numerically simulated. Selected stimulation results are presented and provide a reference for the further study of fine particles. 相似文献

Void growth and coalescence in fcc single crystals were studied using crystal plasticity under uniaxial and biaxial loading conditions and various orientations of the crystalline lattice. A 2D plane strain unit cell with one and two cylindrical voids was employed using three-dimensional 12 potentially active slip systems. The results were compared to five representative orientations of the tensile axis on the stereographic triangle. For uniaxial tension conditions, the void volume fraction increase under the applied load is strongly dependent on the crystallographic orientation with respect to the tensile axis. For some orientations of the tensile axis, such as [1 0 0] or [1 1 0], the voids exhibited a growth rate twice as fast compared with other orientations ([1 0 0], [2 1 1]). Void growth and coalescence simulations under uniaxial loading indicated that during deformation along some orientations with asymmetry of the slip systems, the voids experienced rotation and shape distortion, due mainly to lattice reorientation. Coalescence effects are shown to diminish the influence of lattice orientation on the void volume fraction increase, but noteworthy differences are still present. Under biaxial loading conditions, practically all differences in the void volume fraction for different orientations of the tensile axes during void growth vanish. These results lead to the conclusion that at microstructural length scales in regions under intense biaxiality/triaxiality conditions, such as crack tip or notched regions, the plastic anisotropy due to the initial lattice orientation has only a minor role in influencing the void growth rate. In such situations, void growth and coalescence are mainly determined by the stress triaxiality, the magnitude of accumulated strain, and the spatial localization of such plastic strains. 相似文献

This paper presents a numerical study of three-dimensional laminar mixed convection within a liquid flowing on a horizontal channel heated uniformly from below. The upper surface is free and assumed to be flat. The coupled Navier–Stokes and energy equations are solved numerically by the finite volume method taking into account the thermocapillary effects (Marangoni effect). When the strength of the buoyancy, thermocapillary effects and forced convective currents are comparable (Ri ⋍ O(1) and Bd = Ra/Ma ⋍ O(1)), the results show that the development of instabilities in the form of steady longitudinal convective rolls is similar to those encountered in the Poiseuille–Rayleigh–Bénard flow. The number and spatial distribution of these rolls along the channel depend on the flow conditions. The objective of this work is to study the influence of parameters, such as the Reynolds, Rayleigh and Biot numbers, on the flow patterns and heat transfer characteristics. The effects of variations in the surface tension with temperature gradients (Marangoni effect) are also considered. 相似文献

The qualities of a DES (Detached Eddy Simulation) and a PANS (Partially-Averaged Navier–Stokes) hybrid RANS/LES model, both based on the k–ω RANS turbulence model of Wilcox (2008, “Formulation of the k–ω turbulence model revisited” AIAA J., 46: 2823–2838), are analysed for simulation of plane impinging jets at a high nozzle-plate distance (H/B = 10, Re = 13,500; H is nozzle-plate distance, B is slot width; Reynolds number based on slot width and maximum velocity at nozzle exit) and a low nozzle-plate distance (H/B = 4, Re = 20,000). The mean velocity field, fluctuating velocity components, Reynolds stresses and skin friction at the impingement plate are compared with experimental data and LES (Large Eddy Simulation) results. The k–ω DES model is a double substitution type, following Davidson and Peng (2003, “Hybrid LES–RANS modelling: a one-equation SGS model combined with a k–ω model for predicting recirculating flows” Int. J. Numer. Meth. Fluids, 43: 1003–1018). This means that the turbulent length scale is replaced by the grid size in the destruction term of the k-equation and in the eddy viscosity formula. The k–ω PANS model is derived following Girimaji (2006, “Partially-Averaged Navier–Stokes model for turbulence: a Reynolds-Averaged Navier–Stokes to Direct Numerical Simulation bridging method” J. Appl. Mech., 73: 413–421). The turbulent length scale in the PANS model is constructed from the total turbulent kinetic energy and the sub-filter dissipation rate. Both hybrid models change between RANS (Reynolds-Averaged Navier–Stokes) and LES based on the cube root of the cell volume. The hybrid techniques, in contrast to RANS, are able to reproduce the turbulent flow dynamics in the shear layers of the impacting jet. The change from RANS to LES is much slower however for the PANS model than for the DES model on fine enough grids. This delays the break-up process of the vortices generated in the shear layers with as a consequence that the DES model produces better results than the PANS model. 相似文献

A supersonic dusty gas flow over a blunt body is considered. The mathematical model of the two-phase gas–particle flow takes into account the inter-particle collisions and the two-way coupling effects. The carrier gas is treated as a continuum, the averaged flow field of which is described by the complete Navier–Stokes equations with additional source terms modeling the reverse action of the dispersed phase. The dispersed phase is treated as a discrete set of solid particles, and its behavior is described by a kinetic Boltzmann-type equation. Particles impinging on the body surface are assumed to bounce from it. Numerical analysis is carried out for the cross-wise flow over a cylinder. The method of computational simulation represents a combination of a CFD-method for the carrier gas and a Monte Carlo method for the “gas” of particles. The dependence of the fine flow structure of the continuous and dispersed phases upon the free stream particle volume fraction αp∞ and the particle radius rp is investigated, particularly in the shock layer and in the boundary layer at the body surface. The particle volume fraction αp∞ is varied from a negligibly low value to the value αp∞ = 3 × 105 at which inter-particle collisions and two-way coupling effects are simultaneously essential. Particular attention has been given to the particles of radii close to the critical value rp1, because in this range of particle size the behavior of the particles and their effect on the carrier gas flow are not yet completely understood. An estimate of the turbulent kinetic energy produced by the particles in the shock layer is obtained. 相似文献

The flow above the free end of a surface-mounted finite-height cylinder was studied in a low-speed wind tunnel using particle image velocimetry (PIV). Velocity measurements were made in vertical and horizontal measurement planes above the free end of finite cylinders of aspect ratios AR = 9, 7, 5 and 3, at a Reynolds number of Re = 4.2 × 104. The relative thickness of the boundary layer on the ground plane was δ/D = 1.7. Flow separating from the leading edge formed a prominent recirculation zone on the free-end surface. The legs of the mean arch vortex contained within the recirculation zone terminate on the free-end surface on either side of the centreline. Separated flow from the leading edge attaches onto the upper surface of the cylinder along a prominent attachment line. Local separation downstream of the leading edge is also induced by the reverse flow and arch vortex circulation within the recirculation zone. As the cylinder aspect ratio is lowered from AR = 9 to AR = 3, the thickness of the recirculation zone increases, the arch vortex centre moves downstream and higher above the free-end surface, the attachment position moves downstream, and the termination points of the arch vortex move upstream. A lowering of the aspect ratio therefore results in accentuated curvature of the arch vortex line. Changes in aspect ratio also influence the vorticity generation in the near-wake region and the shape of the attachment line. 相似文献

Laboratory experiments were carried out to study the effects of sand particles on circular sand–water wall jets. Mean and turbulence characteristics of sand particles in the sand–water wall jets were measured for different sand concentrations co ranging from 0.5% to 2.5%. Effects of sand particle size on the centerline sand velocity of the jets were evaluated for sand size ranging from 0.21 mm to 0.54 mm. Interesting results with the range of measurements are presented in this paper. It was found that the centerline sand velocity of the wall jets with larger particle size were 15% higher than the jets with smaller particle size. Concentration profiles in the vertical direction showed a peak value at x/d = 5 (where x is the longitudinal distance from the nozzle and d is the nozzle diameter) and the sand concentration decreased linearly for x/d > 5. Experimental results showed that the turbulence level enhanced from the nozzle to x/d = 10. For sand–water wall jets with a higher concentration (co = 1.5–2.5%), the turbulence intensity became smaller than the corresponding single-phase wall jets by 34% due to turbulent modulation. A modified logarithmic formulation was introduced to model the longitudinal turbulent intensity at the centerline and along the axis of the jet. 相似文献

A computational study of heat transfer from rectangular cylinders is carried out. Rectangular cylinders are distinguished based on the ratio of the length of streamwise face to the height of the cross-stream face (side ratio, R). The simulations were performed to understand the heat transfer in a flow field comprising separation, reattachment, vortex shedding and stagnation. The Partially-Averaged Navier–Stokes (PANS) modeling approach is used to solve the turbulent flow physics associated and the wall resolve approach is used for the near wall treatment because of the flow separation involved. The simulations were performed using a finite volume based opensource software, OpenFOAM, at Reynolds number (Re) = 22,000 for rectangular cylinder at constant temperature kept in an air stream. Two critical side ratios were obtained, R = 0.62 and 3.0. At R = 0.62, the maximum value of the drag coefficient (Cd) = 2.681 was observed which gradually reduced by 54% at R = 4.0. The base pressure coefficient and global Nusselt number also attained the maximum value at R = 0.62 and from R = 2.5 to 3.0 a sharp discontinuous increase by 140% in the Strouhal number was observed. At R = 0.62, it was observed that the separated flow reattaches at the trailing edge after rolling over the side face and therefore increases the overall Nusselt number. The phase averaging was also performed to analyze the unsteady behavior of heat transfer. 相似文献

We have studied the flow of thermodynamically ideal solutions of a high molecular weight (Mw = 6.9 MDa) atactic polystyrene in the θ solvent dioctyl phthalate (aPS in DOP) through a micro-fabricated 8:1 planar abrupt contraction geometry. The channel is much deeper than most micro-scale geometries, providing an aspect ratio of 16:1 and a good approximation to 2D flow in the narrow channel. The solutions span a range of concentration 0.03 wt.% < c < 0.6 wt.%, encompassing the dilute to semi-dilute regimes and providing a range of fluid viscosities and relaxation times such that we achieve a range of Weissenberg numbers (8.7 < Wi < 1562) and Reynolds numbers (0.07 < Re < 11.2), giving elasticity numbers between 31 < El < 295. We study the flow using a combination of micro-particle image velocimetry (μ-PIV) to characterize the flow field, pressure measurements to evaluate the non-Newtonian viscosity, and birefringence measurements to assess macromolecular strain. Flow field observations reveal three broad flow regimes characterized by Newtonian-like flow, unstable flow and vortex growth in the upstream salient corners. Transitions between the flow regimes scale with Wi, independent of El, indicating the dominance of elastic over inertial effects in all the fluids. Transitions in the flow field are also reflected by transitions in the relative viscosity (determined from the pressure drop) and the macromolecular strain (determined from birefringence measurements). The strain through the 8:1 contraction saturates at a value of ~4–5 at high Wi. The results of these experiments broaden the limited set of literature on flow through micro-fluidic planar contractions and should be of significant value for optimizing lab-on-a-chip design and for comparison with modeling studies with elasticity dominated fluids. 相似文献

The gravity-driven azimuthal flow of a layer of thixotropic paint on the inner surface of a horizontal tube is studied, considering surface tension effects. Using the lubrication theory, it was shown that a non-linear, fourth-order partial differential equation governs the time evolution of the paint layer thickness distribution along the azimuthal coordinate. Three parameters arise in the analysis, namely, the Bond number and two rheology-related parameters. The governing equation is integrated via a second-order accurate finite-difference scheme. The results showed that, in situations where the capillary force dominates (Bo < 1), displacement of the paint after application is very slow. For situations where the gravity force dominates (Bo > 1), an undulation on the interface arises near the tube bottom at sufficiently large times. 相似文献

Combined Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) and Particle Tracking Velocimetry (PTV) measurements have been performed in dilute suspensions of rod-like particles in wall turbulence. PIV results for the turbulence field in the water table flow apparatus compared favorably with data from Direct Numerical Simulations (DNS) of channel flow turbulence and the universality of near-wall turbulence justified comparisons with DNS of fiber-laden channel flow. In order to examine any shape effects on the dynamical behavior of elongated particles in wall-bounded turbulent flow, fibers with three different lengths but the same diameter were used. In the logarithmic part of the wall-layer, the translational fiber velocity was practically unaffected by the fiber length l. In the buffer layer, however, the fiber dynamics turned out to be severely constrained by the distance z to the wall. The short fibers accumulated preferentially in low-speed areas and adhered to the local fluid speed. The longer fibers (l/z > 1) exhibited a bi-modal probability distribution for the fiber velocity, which reflected an almost equal likelihood for a long fiber to reside in an ejection or in a sweep. It was also observed that in the buffer region, high-speed long fibers were almost randomly oriented whereas for all size cases the slowly moving fibers preferentially oriented in the streamwise direction. These phenomena have not been observed in DNS studies of fiber suspension flows and suggested l/z to be an essential parameter in a new generation of wall-collision models to be used in numerical studies. 相似文献
