CFD of turbulent transport of particles behind a backward-facing step using a new model—k-ε-Sp

The k-ε-S_p model, describing two-dimensional gas–solid two-phase turbulent flow, has been developed. In this model, the diffusion flux and slip velocity of solid particles are introduced to represent the particle motion in two-phase flow. Based on this model, the gas–solid two-phase turbulent flow behind a vertical backward-facing step is simulated numerically and the turbulent transport velocities of solid particles with high density behind the step are predicted. The numerical simulation is validated by comparing the results of the numerical calculation with two other two-phase turbulent flow models (k-ε-A_p, k-ε-k_p) by Laslandes and the experimental measurements. This model, not only has the same virtues of predicting the longitudinal transport of the solid particles as the present practical two-phase flow models, but also can predict the lateral transport of the solid particles correctly.     

Assessment of an Eulerian CFD model for prediction of dilute droplet dispersion in a turbulent jet

The turbulent dispersion of non-evaporating droplets in an axisymmetric round jet issuing from a nozzle is investigated both experimentally and theoretically. The experimental data set has a well-defined inlet boundary with low turbulence intensity at the nozzle exit, so that droplet dispersion is not affected by the transport of nozzle-generated fluctuating motion into the jet, and is influenced solely by turbulence in the gas phase produced in the shear layer of the jet. This data set is thus ideal for testing algebraic models of droplet fluctuating motion that assume local equilibrium with the turbulence in the gas phase. Moreover, the droplet flux measurements are sufficiently accurate that conservation of the total volume flow of the droplet phase has been demonstrated. A two-fluid turbulence modelling approach is adopted, which uses the k–ε turbulence model and a simple algebraic model that assumes local equilibrium to predict the fluid and droplet turbulent correlations, respectively. We have shown that the k–ε turbulence model lacks generality for predicting the spread of momentum in jets with and without a potential core. However, in general, the model predicts the radial dispersion of droplets in the considered turbulent jet with reasonable accuracy over a broad range of droplet sizes, once deficiencies in the k–ε turbulence model are taken into account.     

Numerical modeling of turbulence-induced interfacial instability in two-phase flow with moving interface

The present paper introduces a new interfacial marker-level set method (IMLS) which is coupled with the Reynolds averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) equations to predict the turbulence-induced interfacial instability of two-phase flow with moving interface. The governing RANS equations for time-dependent, axisymmetric and incompressible two-phase flow are described in both phases and solved separately using the control volume approach on structured cell-centered collocated grids. The transition from one phase to another is performed through a consistent balance of kinematic and dynamic conditions on the interface separating the two phases. The topological changes of the interface are predicted by applying the level set approach. By fitting a number of interfacial markers on the intersection points of the computational grids with the interface, the interfacial stresses and consequently, the interfacial driving forces are easily estimated. Moreover, the normal interface velocity, calculated at the interfacial markers positions, can be extended to the higher dimensional level set function and used for the interface advection process. The performance of linear and non-linear two-equation k–ε turbulence models is investigated in the context of the considered two-phase flow impinging problem, where a turbulent gas jet impinging on a free liquid surface. The numerical results obtained are evaluated through the comparison with the available experimental and analytical data. The nonlinear turbulence model showed superiority in predicting the interface deformation resulting from turbulent normal stresses. However, both linear and nonlinear turbulence models showed a similar behavior in predicting the interface deformation due to turbulent tangential stresses. In general, the developed IMLS numerical method showed a remarkable capability in predicting the dynamics of the considered two-phase immiscible flow problems and therefore it can be applied to quite a number of interface stability problems.     

Control of two-dimensional turbulent wall jet on a coanda surface

The Coanda effect that is the tendency of a fluid jet to stay attached to an adjacent curved surface that is very well shaped has been employed to improve the performance of various devices. The main objective of this paper is to investigate ways of keeping the flow attached to a larger length of a Coanda surface. There are considered two possibilities: one passive, which uses a slot that connects the low pressure and high pressure points on the Coanda surface and an active one, based on the principle of synthetic jet, created through an orifice located near the point of detachment of the jet. Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes simulations (RANS) with shear stress transport k-ω (SST model) of Menter have been used to compute the two-dimensional turbulent wall jet. The numerical results are presented for the two methods considered. (© 2011 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)

A Lagrangian simulation of particle deposition in a turbulent boundary layer in the presence of thermophoresis

Knowledge of particle deposition in turbulent flows is often required in engineering situations. Examples include fouling of turbine blades, plate-out in nuclear reactors and soot deposition. Thus it is important for numerical simulations to be able to predict particle deposition. Particle deposition is often principally determined by the forces acting on the particles in the boundary layer. The particle tracking facility in the CFD code uses the eddy lifetime model to simulate turbulent particle dispersion, no specific boundary layer being modelled. The particle tracking code has been modified to include a boundary layer. The non-dimensional yplus, y⁺, distance of the particle from the wall is determined and then values for the fluid velocity, fluctuating fluid velocity and eddy lifetime appropriate for a turbulent boundary layer used. Predictions including the boundary layer have been compared against experimental data for particle deposition in turbulent pipe flow. The results giving much better agreement. Many engineering problems also involve heat transfer and hence temperature gradients. Thermophoresis is a phenomena by which small particles experience a force in the opposite direction to the temperature gradient. Thus particles will tend to deposit on cold walls and be repulsed by hot walls. The effect of thermophoresis on the deposition of particles can be significant. The modifications of the particle tracking facility have been extended to include the effect of thermophoresis. A preliminary test case involving the deposition of particles in a heated pipe has been simulated. Comparison with experimental data from an extensive experimental programme undertaken at ISPRA, known as STORM (Simplified Tests on Resuspension Mechanisms), has been made.     

Efficiency of a DC magnetic field used for braking the flow within a continuous casting mould

The continuous casting technology provides about 90 percent of the world steel production. The application of DC magnetic fields in form of so-called electromagnetic brakes is considered for an effective flow control with substantial capabilities to improve the product quality or to enhance the productivity of the process. The main effect of the DC magnetic field is supposed to result in a uniform reduction of the maximum velocities in the discharging jet from the submerged entry nozzle and to damp violent turbulent fluctuations. However, the electromagnetic braking of such highly turbulent and complex flows is complicated phenomenon and has not been understood fully until now. We present numerical and experimental investigations focusing on the fluid flow in the continuous casting mould under the influence of a transverse magnetic field. Numerical calculations were performed using the software package CFX with an implemented RANS-SST turbulence model. the non-isotropic nature of the MHD turbulence was taken into account by specific modifications of the turbulence model. Corresponding experimental investigations were carried out at the mock-up LIMMCAST at HZDR. The comparison between our numerical calculations and the experimental results display a very well agreement. An important outcome of this study is the feature that the magnetic field does not provide a continuous reduction of the velocity fluctuations at the nozzle port. (© 2011 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

A fully meshless method for ‘gas – evaporating droplet’ flow modelling

A meshless method for modelling two-phase flows with phase transition is described. The method is based on consideration of three systems: viscous-vortex blobs, thermal-blobs and droplets; and can be applied for numerical simulation of 2D non-isothermal flows of ‘gas-evaporating droplets’ in the framework of the one-way coupled two-fluid approach. The carrier phase is viscous incompressible gas. The dispersed phase is presented by a cloud of identical spherical droplets, and, due to evaporation, the radius and mass of droplets are time dependent. The carrier phase parameters are calculated using the viscous-vortex and thermal-blob method; the dispersed phase parameters are calculated using the Lagrangian approach. Two applications have been considered: (i) a standard benchmark – Lamb vortex; (ii) a cold spray injected into a hot quiescent gas. In the latter problem three cases corresponding to three droplet sizes were investigated. The smallest droplets (of the three cases considered) are more readily entrained by the carrier phase and form ring-like structures; the flow shows better mixing. Larger droplets evaporate less intensively. The medium sized droplets collect into two narrow bands stretched along the jet axis. The largest droplets form a two-phase jet, which remains close to the jet axis. (© 2015 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

Large eddy simulation and PIV experiments of air–water mixing tanks

The simulations and experiments of a turbulent bubbly flow are carried out in a cylindrical mixing vessel. Dynamics of the turbulent bubbly flow is visualized using a novel two-phase particle image velocimetry (PIV) with a combination of back lighting, digital masking and fluorescent tracer particles. Using an advanced technique, Mie’s scattering at surfaces of bubbles is totally filtered out and, henceforth, images of tracer particles and of bubbles are obtained with high quality. In parallel to the comprehensive experimental studies, numerical results are obtained from large eddy simulations (LES) of the two-phase air–water mixer. The impeller-induced flow at the blade tip radius is modeled by using sliding mesh method. The results demonstrate the existence of large structures such as tip-vortex tips, and also some finer details. In addition, the stability of the jet is found to be connected with the fluctuations of the tip vortices whose dynamics are affected by the presence of bubbles. Numerical results are used to interpret the measurement data and to guide the refinement of consistent theoretical analyses. Such information is invaluable in the development of advanced theories capable of describing bubbly flows in the presence of complex liquid flow. This detailed information is of real significance in facilitating the design and scale-up of practical stirred tanks.

Dispersion of solid particles in turbulant flow through pipe expansions

Studies of the effects upon gas-liquid two-phase flows of pipefittings such as expansions, contractions, bends, and valveshave usually concentrated upon pressuredrop correlations andhave not attempted to determine changes in the distributionsof the gas and liquid phases caused by the fitting. However,it is known that such information is important if, for example,flow separators, which divide the gas and liquid phases in avariety of industrial processes, are to function efficiently.It is therefore important to gain an understanding of the influenceupon phase distributions of the common pipe fittings mentionedabove, which will be found in almost any industrial pipeworksystem. As a first step, the dispersion of solid particles carriedby turbulent gas flows through a pipe expansion has been modellednumerically. The commercial fluid-flow code CFDS-FLOW{smalltilde}hDas been used to model the gas flow, together with aneddy interaction model for determination of the motion of thesolid particles. Mean particle velocities and root-mean-squarevalues of the particle velocity fluctuations, as well as particleconcentrations, are evaluated and compared with recent experimentalresults. The influence of different eddy-length and eddy-lifetimespecifications upon the dispersion of particles of various sizesis investigated. It is found that the different eddy characteristicshave little effect on predicted mean particle velocities, whereasfluctuations in particle velocities and particle concentrationare sensitive to the changes made. By comparing the resultswith experimental data, it is possible to draw conclusions aboutthe relative merits of the different eddy specifications.     

Non-Boussinesq turbulent buoyant jet of a low-density gas leaks into high-density ambient

In this article, we study the problem of low-density gas jet injected into high-density ambient numerically which is important in applications such as fuel injection and leaks. It is assumed that the local rate of entrainment is consisted of two components; one is the component of entrainment due to jet momentum while the other is the component of entrainment due to buoyancy. The integral models of the mass, momentum and concentration fluxes are obtained and transformed to a set of ordinary differential equations using some similarity transformations. The resulting system is solved to determine the centerline quantities which are used to get the mean axial velocity, mean concentration and mean density of the jet. Therefore, the centerline and mean quantities are used together with the governing equation to determine some important turbulent quantities such as, cross-stream velocity, Reynolds stress, velocity-concentration correlation, turbulent eddy viscosity and turbulent eddy diffusivity. Throughout this paper the developed model is verified by comparing the present results with experimental results and jet/plume theory from the literature.     

Fast spectral solutions of the double-gyre problem in a turbulent flow regime

Several semi-analytical models are considered for a double-gyre problem in a turbulent flow regime for which a reference fully numerical eddy-resolving solution is obtained. The semi-analytical models correspond to solving the depth-averaged Navier–Stokes equations using the spectral Galerkin approach. The robustness of the linear and Smagorinsky eddy-viscosity models for turbulent diffusion approximation is investigated. To capture essential properties of the double-gyre configuration, such as the integral kinetic energy, the integral angular momentum, and the jet mean-flow distribution, an improved semi-analytical model is suggested that is inspired by the idea of scale decomposition between the jet and the surrounding flow.     

An assessment of streamline curvature effects on the mixing region of a turbulent plane jet in crossflow

The flow field of a turbulent plane jet in a weak or moderate crossflow, which is characterised by mild streamline curvature, has been investigated computationally. The values of the jet-to-crossflow velocity ratios chosen are 6, 9 and 10. The time-averaged Navier–Stokes equations are solved on a staggered Cartesian grid using the standard k–ϵ model and the k–ϵ model with streamline curvature modification. The predictions using both the models are compared with available experimental data. It has been shown that by accounting for the effect of streamline curvature in the k–ϵ model results in good prediction of this flow configuration.     

A 3-dimensional Eulerian–Eulerian CFD simulation of a hydrocyclone

Hydrocyclones are used in mineral industries for classification and separation of solid particles of different sizes and densities suspended in water medium. In the present study an Eulerian–Eulerian CFD simulation of a solid–liquid hydrocyclone has been carried out taking into account two solid phases and one liquid phase. The average size of the larger particle was 0.6117 and that of the smaller particle was 0.09875 mm. Three separate momentum balance equations for the three phases have been considered unlike that in the mixture model where a single momentum equation is solved for the three phases. Two turbulent models i.e. the Reynolds stress model (RSM) and the standard k–ε model were studied. Comparison of the two turbulence models showed slight variation in prediction of the velocity profile and the separation efficiency. The maximum deviation between the two models was observed near the wall where the stress was maximum for larger size particles.     

Three-dimensional effects of an air curtain used to restrict cold room infiltration

The aim of this study was to compare the measured effectiveness of an air curtain device at different jet velocities against a three-dimensional (3-D) computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model. The air curtain device was not as wide as the entrance and had a geometry that encouraged 3-D flow. By carefully setting up the air curtain an effectiveness of 0.71 was achieved compared to the initial value of only 0.31 as set by the air curtain device installer. The 3-D CFD model predicted the infiltration through the entrance with no air curtain to an accuracy of within 20–32%. The predicted effectiveness, E, of the air curtain at different jet velocities was 0.10–0.15 lower than measured. The shape of the effectiveness curve against jet velocity was well predicted. CFD has shown that the flow from this air curtain cannot be considered as 2-D. The central part of the jet is deflected away from the cold store by the Coanda effect caused by the air curtain device’s fan body. The edges of the jet are deflected into the cold store by the stack pressures and turn into the void caused by the deflected central jet.
