Analysis of slip and temperature jump coefficients in a binary gas mixture

The possibility of simplifying the formulas obtained by the Maxwell-Loyalka method for the velocity _u, temperature _T and diffusion _d slip coefficients and the temperature jump coefficient in a binary gas mixture with frozen internal degrees of freedom of the molecules is considered. Special attention is paid to gases not having sharply different physicochemical properties. The formulas are written in a form convenient for use without linearization in the thermal diffusion coefficient. They are systematically analyzed for mixtures of inert gases, N₂, O₂, CO₂, and H₂ at temperatures extending from room temperature to 2500°K. It is shown that for the molecular weight ratios m^* = m₂/m₁ considered the expressions for _u and can be radically simplified. With an error acceptable for practical purposes (up to 10%) it is possible to employ expressions of the same structural form as for a single-component gas: for _u if 1 m^* 6, and for if 1 m^* 3. When 1 m^* 2 the expression for _T can be simplified with a maximum error of 5%. Within the limits of accuracy of the method the expression for _t can be linearized in the thermal diffusion coefficient. An approximate expression convenient for practical calculations is proposed for _d Finally, the , _u, and _T for a single-component polyatomic gas with easy excitation of the internal degrees of freedom of the molecules are similarly analyzed; it is shown that these expressions can be considerably simplified.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Mekhanika Zhidkosti i Gaza, No. 6, pp. 152–159, November–December, 1990.

Analysis of melt spinning transients in Lagrangian coordinates

Transients in melt spinning of isothermal power law and Newtonian fluids were found to be governed by an extremely simple partial differential equation ² ( ^1/n )/() = 0 in Lagrangian coordinates where is the cross-sectional area,n the power law exponent, the time and the the time at which a fluid molecule constituting the spinline left the spinneret. The general integral ^1/n =f() +g () of the above governing equation containing two arbitrary functions represents physically attainable spinline transients. Hitherto unknown analytical transient solutions of the above governing equation were obtained for the response of isothermal constant tension spinlines to a stepwise change in tension, spinneret hole area, extrusion speed or extrusion viscosity and for the starting transient in gravitational spinning. Linearized perturbation solutions and the stability limit of the spinline derived from the above new found nonlinear solutions were in agreement with previous findings and the above nonlinear response of the spinline to a step increase in the spinneret hole area was found to be equivalent to Orowan's tandem cylinder model of dent growth in filament stretching.

On the influence of transvers-curvature and density in inhomogeneous turbulent free jets

The prediction of turbulent flows based on the k- model is extended to include the influence of transverse-curvature and density on the turbulent transport mechanisms. The empirical constants involved are adjusted such that the best agreement between predictions and experimental results is obtained. Using a transformation the boundary layer equations are solved numerically by means of a finite difference method of Hermitian type. The extended model is applied to predict the axisymmetric jet with variable density. The results of the calculations are in agreement with measurements.

Heat transfer from laminar flow in ducts with elliptic cross-section

Summary The cooling of a hot fluid in laminar Newtonian flow through cooled elliptic tubes has been calculated theoretically. Numerical data have been computed for the two values 1.25 and 4 of the axial ratio of the elliptic cross-section . For =1.25 the influence of non-zero thermal resistance between outmost fluid layer and isothermal surroundings has also been investigated. Special attention has been given to the distribution of heat flux around the perimeter; when increases the flux varies more with the position at the circumference. This positional dependence becomes less pronounced, however, as the (position-independent) thermal resistance of the wall increases.Flattening of the conduit, while maintaining its cross-sectional area constant, improves the cooling. Comparison with rectangular pipes shows that this improvement is not as marked with elliptic as with rectangular pipes.Nomenclature A _k =A _{m, n} coefficients of expansion (6) - a, b half-axes of ellipse, b<a - a _p =a _{r, s} coefficients of representation (V) - D hydraulic diameter, = 4S/P; S = cross-sectional area, P = perimeter - D _e equivalent diameter, according to (13) - n coordinate (outward) normal to the tube wall - T temperature of fluid - T _i temperature of fluid at the inlet - T _s temperature of surroundings - v ₀ mean velocity of fluid - v _z longitudinal velocity of fluid - x, y carthesian coordinates coinciding with axes of ellipse - z coordinate in flow direction - , dimensionless half-axes of ellipse, =a/D and =b/D - _t heat transfer coefficient from fluid at bulk temperature to surroundings; equation (11) - _w heat transfer coefficient at the wall; equation (3) - axial ratio of ellipse, = a/b = / - , , , dimensionless coordinates; =x/D, =y/D, =z/D, =n/D - dimensionless temperature, = (T–T _s)/(T _i–T _s) - ₀ cup-mixing mean value of ; equation (10) - thermal conductivity of fluid - _m,n = _k eigenvalue - c volumetric heat capacity of fluid - _{m, n} = _k = _k eigenfunction; equations (6) and (I) - Nu total Nusselt number, = _t D/ - Nusselt number at large distance from the inlet - Nu _w wall Nusselt number, = _w D/, based on _w - Pé Péclet number, = ₀ Dc/     

Mass transfer with chemical reaction in a laminar falling film

Zusammenfassung Es wird eine analytische Lösung für die Absorption in einem laminaren Rieselfilm mit homogener und heterogener chemischer Reaktion 1.

Die Lösung ist eine Funktion von drei dimensionslosen ParameternBi, und, welche die BiotZahl und einen homogenen bzw. heterogenen Reaktionsparameter darstellen. Es wird gezeigt, daß für feste Werte vonBi und die Absorptionsrate (bezogen auf die Breite 1 des Rieselfilms) über eine gewisse Länge (dimensionslos) des Rieselfilms unabhängig von ist, wenn, < 0,6 ist. Die laufende Länge wird von der Stelle aus gemessen, an der die Absorption beginnt. Für b 0,6 nimmt der FlußQ mit zu, erreicht aber einen Sättigungswert bei=10, wonachQ nurmehr sehr langsam anwächst. Jedoch für ein gegebenes und ohne Übergangswiderstand im Film (Bi ) nimmtQ mit für alle 0 zu.

Mass transfer with chemical reaction in a laminar falling film

An analytical solution is presented for gas absorption in a laminar falling film with first-order homogeneous and heterogeneous chemical reaction and external gas-phase mass transfer resistance. The solution depends on three dimensionless parametersBi, and, wich represent the Biot number, homogeneous and heterogeneous reaction parameters, respectively. It is shown that for fixed values ofBi and, the rate of gas absorption (per unit breadth) over a certain length; (dimensionless) along the falling film measured from the point where surface absorption begins is independent of if < 0.6. For 0.6, this fluxQ increases with but reaches a saturation value at=10 beyond whichQ increases very slowly. But for given and zero gas film resistance (Bi ),Q increases with for all 0.

Reservoir transport equations by compositional approach

The objective of this paper is to present an overview of the fundamental equations governing transport phenomena in compressible reservoirs. A general mathematical model is presented for important thermo-mechanical processes operative in a reservoir. Such a formulation includes equations governing multiphase fluid (gas-water-hydrocarbon) flow, energy transport, and reservoir skeleton deformation. The model allows phase changes due to gas solubility. Furthermore, Terzaghi's concept of effective stress and stress-strain relations are incorporated into the general model. The functional relations among various model parameters which cause the nonlinearity of the system of equations are explained within the context of reservoir engineering principles. Simplified equations and appropriate boundary conditions have also been presented for various cases. It has been demonstrated that various well-known equations such as Jacob, Terzaghi, Buckley-Leverett, Richards, solute transport, black-oil, and Biot equations are simplifications of the compositional model.Notation List B reservoir thickness - B formation volume factor of phase - Cⁱ mass of component i dissolved per total volume of solution - C ⁱ mass fraction of component i in phase - C heat capacity of phase at constant volume - C_p heat capacity of phase at constant pressure - D ⁱ hydrodynamic dispersion coefficient of component i in phase - D_MTf thermal liquid diffusivity for fluid f - F = F(x, y, z, t) defines the boundary surface - f_p fractional flow of phase - g gravitational acceleration - H_p enthalpy per unit mass of phase - J_p volumetric flux of phase - k_rf relative permeability to fluid f - k₀ absolute permeability of the medium - M_p ⁱ mass of component i in phase - n porosity - N rate of accretion - P_f pressure in fluid f - p_ca capillary pressure between phases and =p-p - Rⁱ rate of mass transfer of component i from phase to phase - Rⁱ _source source rate of component i within phase - S saturation of phase - s gas solubility - T temperature - t time - U displacement vector - u velocity in the x-direction - v velocity in the y-direction - V volume of phase - V_s velocity of soil solids - W_i body force in coordinate direction i - x horizontal coordinate - z vertical coordinate Greek Letters _p volumetric coefficient of compressibility - _T volumetric coefficient of thermal expansion - _ij Kronecker delta - volumetric strain - _m thermal conductivity of the whole matrix - internal energy per unit mass of phase - gf suction head - density of phase - _ij tensor of total stresses - _ij tensor of effective stresses - volumetric content of phase - f viscosity of fluid f     

Conditions of simulation of stagnation point heat transfer from a high-enthalpy flow

The problem of local simulation of stagnation point heat transfer to a blunt body is solved within the framework of boundary layer theory on the assumption that the simulation subsonic high-enthalpy flow is in equilibrium outside the boundary layer on the model, while the parameters of the natural flow are in equilibrium at the outer edge of the boundary layer on the body. The parameters of the simulating subsonic flow are expressed in terms of the total enthalpyH ₀, the stagnation point pressurep _w and the velocityV ₁ for the natural free-stream flow in the form of universal functions of the dimensionless modeling coefficients=R _m ^* /R _b ^* ( .<1),=V ₁/2H ₀ ( .<1) whereR _m ^* and R _b ^* are the effective radii of the model and the body at their stagnation points. Approximate conditions for modeling the heat transfer from a high-enthalpy (including hypersonic) flow to the stagnation point on a blunt body by means of hyposonic (M1) flows, corresponding to the case ²1, are obtained. The possibilities of complete local simulation of hypersonic nonequilibrium heat transfer to the stagnation point on a blunt body in the hyposonic dissociated air jets of a VGU-2 100-kilowatt induction plasma generator [4, 5] are analyzed.Translated from Izvestiya Rossiiskoi Akademii Nauk, Mekhanika Zhidkosti i Gaza, No.1, pp. 172–180, January–February, 1993.

Summary Two-dimensional stress singularities in wedges have already drawn attention since a long time. An inverse square-root stress singularity (in a 360° wedge) plays an important role in fracture mechanics.Recently some similar three-dimensional singularities in conical regions have been investigated, from which one may be also important in fracture mechanics.Spherical coordinates are r, , . The conical region occupied by the elastic homogeneous body (and possible anisotropic) has its vertex at r=0. The mantle of the cone is described by an arbitrary function f(, )=0.

Mass transport in a converging-diverging nozzle

The local concentration has been determined for a viscous liquid flowing through a converging-diverging tube with constant wall- and initial concentration. The liquid flow was considered as creeping flow and its velocity distribution was determined by solving the biharmonic differential equation of the stream function. The mass transport was presented in form of an infinite series of Legendre functions, which rendered with the Galerkin condition a determinant of finite order for the determination of the eigenvalues. The local concentration was evaluated numerically for differently diverging tubes, of which the case of mass transport for viscous (linearized) flow through an orifice of circular cross-section presented a special case.
