We propose a niche genetic multi-parameter （including porosity, solid phase density and fluid phase density） joint inversion algorithm based on a two-phase fractured medium in the BISQ model. We take the two-phase fractured medium of the BISQ model in a two- dimensional half space as an example, and carry out the numerical reservoir parameters inversion. Results show that this method is very convenient for solving the parameters inversion problem for the wave equation in a two-phase medium, and has the advantage of strong noise rejection. Relative to conventional genetic algorithms, the niche genetic algorithm based on a sharing function can not only significantly speed up the convergence, but also improve the inversion precision.展开更多

These characteristic...Clayey-silt natural gas hydrate reservoirs in the South China Sea exhibit loose and unconsolidated structures, heterogeneous pore structures, high clay mineral contents, and strong hydrophilicity. These characteristics complicate the gas-water two-phase flow process in porous media following hydrate decomposition, posing challenges for efficient development. This study examines the transport response of clayey-silt reservoir samples from the Shenhu area using gas-water two-phase flow experiments and CT scanning to explore changes in pore structure, gas-water distribution, and relative permeability under varying flow conditions. The results indicate that pore heterogeneity significantly influences flow characteristics. Gas preferentially displaces water in larger pores, forming fracture-like pores, which serve as preferential flow channels for gas migration. The preferential flow channels enhance gas-phase permeability up to 19 times that of the water phase when fluid pressures exceed total stresses. However,small pores retain liquid, leading to a high residual water saturation of 0.561. CT imaging reveals that these hydro-fractures improve gas permeability but also confine gas flow to specific channels. Pore network analysis shows that gas injection expands the pore-throat network, enhancing connectivity and forming fracture-like pores. Residual water remains trapped in smaller pores and throats, while structural changes, including new fractures, improve gas flow pathways and overall connectivity. Relative permeability curves demonstrate a narrow gas-water cocurrent-flow zone, a right-shifted iso-permeability point and high reservoir capillary pressure, indicating a strong "water-blocking" effect. The findings suggest that optimizing reservoir stimulation techniques to enhance fracture formation, reduce residual water saturation, and improve gas flow capacity is critical for efficient hydrate reservoir development.展开更多

The e...In this study, the three-dimensional non-premixed two-phase kerosene/air rotating detonation engines with different isolator configurations and throat area ratios are simulated by the Eulerian-Lagrangian method. The effects of the divergence, straight, and convergence isolators on the rotating detonation wave dynamics and the upstream oblique shock wave propagation mechanism are analyzed. The differences in the rotating detonation wave behaviors between ground and flight operations are clarified.The results indicate that the propagation regimes of the upstream oblique shock wave depend on the isolator configurations and operation conditions. With a divergence isolator, the airflow is accelerated throughout the isolator and divergence section, leading to a maximum Mach number(~1.8) before the normal shock. The total pressure loss reaches the largest, and the detonation pressure drops. The upstream oblique shock wave can be suppressed within the divergence section with the divergence isolator.However, for the straight and convergence isolators, the airflow in the isolator with a larger ψ_(1)(0.3 and0.4) can suffer from the disturbance of the upstream oblique shock wave. The critical incident angle is around 39° at ground operation conditions. The upstream oblique shock wave tends to be suppressed when the engine operates under flight operation conditions. The critical pressure ratio β_(cr0) is found to be able to help in distinguishing the propagation regimes of the upstream oblique shock wave. Slightly below or above the β_(cr0) can obtain different marginal propagation results. The high-speed airflow in the divergence section affects the fuel droplet penetration distance, which deteriorates the reactant mixing and the detonation area. Significant detonation velocity deficits are observed and the maximum velocity deficit reaches 26%. The results indicate the engine channel design should adopt different isolator configurations based on the purpose of total pressure loss or disturbance suppression. This study can provide useful guidance for the channel design of a more complete two-phase rotating detonation engine.展开更多

Through analysis we find MPGA will lead the population' s evol vement to diversity or convergence according to the population size and the crossover size, so we make it run in different forms during the global and local optimization phases and then forms TPGA. The experiment results show that TPGA is very efficient for the optimization of low-dimension multi-modal functions, usually we can obtain all the global optimal solutions.

文摘Deep-sea mineral resource transportation predominantly utilizes hydraulic pipeline methodology.Environmental factors induce vibrations in flexible pipelines,thereby affecting the internal flow characteristics.Therefore,real-time monitoring of solid–liquid two-phase flow in pipelines is crucial for system maintenance.This study develops an autoencoder-based deep learning framework to reconstruct three-dimensional solid–liquid two-phase flow within flexible vibrating pipelines utilizing sparse wall information from sensors.Within this framework,separate X-model and F-model with distinct hidden-layer structures are established to reconstruct the coordinates and flow field information on the computational domain grid of the pipeline under traveling wave vibration.Following hyperparameter optimization,the models achieved high reconstruction accuracy,demonstrating R^(2)values of 0.990 and 0.945,respectively.The models’robustness is evaluated across three aspects:vibration parameters,physical fields,and vibration modes,demonstrating good reconstruction performance.Results concerning sensors show that 20 sensors(0.06%of total grids)achieve a balance between accuracy and cost,with superior accuracy obtained when arranged along the full length of the pipe compared to a dense arrangement at the front end.The models exhibited a signal-to-noise ratio tolerance of approximately 27 dB,with reconstruction accuracy being more affected by sensor failures at both ends of the pipeline.

文摘The influence of the squeeze film between the tube and the support structure on flow-induced vibrations is a critical factor in tube bundles subjected to two-phase cross-flow.This aspect can significantly alter the threshold for fluidelastic instability and affect heat transfer efficiency.This paper presents a mathematical model incorporating the squeeze film force between the tube and the support structure.We aim to clarify the mechanisms underlying fluidelastic instability in tube bundle systems exposed to two-phase flow.Using a self-developed computer program,we performed numerical calculations to examine the influence of the squeeze film on the threshold of fluidelastic instability in the tube bundle system.Furthermore,we analyzed how the thickness and length of the squeeze film affect both the underlying mechanisms and the critical velocity of fluidelastic instability.

文摘Clayey-silt natural gas hydrate reservoirs in the South China Sea exhibit loose and unconsolidated structures, heterogeneous pore structures, high clay mineral contents, and strong hydrophilicity. These characteristics complicate the gas-water two-phase flow process in porous media following hydrate decomposition, posing challenges for efficient development. This study examines the transport response of clayey-silt reservoir samples from the Shenhu area using gas-water two-phase flow experiments and CT scanning to explore changes in pore structure, gas-water distribution, and relative permeability under varying flow conditions. The results indicate that pore heterogeneity significantly influences flow characteristics. Gas preferentially displaces water in larger pores, forming fracture-like pores, which serve as preferential flow channels for gas migration. The preferential flow channels enhance gas-phase permeability up to 19 times that of the water phase when fluid pressures exceed total stresses. However,small pores retain liquid, leading to a high residual water saturation of 0.561. CT imaging reveals that these hydro-fractures improve gas permeability but also confine gas flow to specific channels. Pore network analysis shows that gas injection expands the pore-throat network, enhancing connectivity and forming fracture-like pores. Residual water remains trapped in smaller pores and throats, while structural changes, including new fractures, improve gas flow pathways and overall connectivity. Relative permeability curves demonstrate a narrow gas-water cocurrent-flow zone, a right-shifted iso-permeability point and high reservoir capillary pressure, indicating a strong "water-blocking" effect. The findings suggest that optimizing reservoir stimulation techniques to enhance fracture formation, reduce residual water saturation, and improve gas flow capacity is critical for efficient hydrate reservoir development.

文摘This work investigated the dynamic behavior of vertical pipes conveying gas-liquid two-phase flow when subjected to external excitations at both ends.Even with minimal excitation amplitude,resonance can occur when the excitation frequency aligns with the natural frequency of the pipe,significantly increasing the degree of operational risk.The governing equation of motion based on the Euler-Bernoulli beam is derived for the relative deflection with stationary simply supported ends,with the effects of the external excitations represented by source terms distributed along the pipe length.The fourth-order partial differential equation is solved via the generalized integral transform technique(GITT),with the solution successfully verified via comparison with results in the literature.A comprehensive analysis of the vibration phenomena and changes in the motion state of the pipe is conducted for three classes of external excitation conditions:same frequency and amplitude(SFSA),same frequency but different amplitudes(SFDA),and different frequencies and amplitudes(DFDA).The numerical results show that with increasing gas volume fraction,the position corresponding to the maximum vibration displacement shifts upward.Compared with conditions without external excitation,the vibration displacement of the pipe conveying two-phase flow under external excitation increases significantly.The frequency of external excitation has a significant effect on the dynamic behavior of a pipe conveying two-phase flow.

文摘Cleat serves as the primary flow pathway for coalbed methane(CBM)and water.However,few studies consider the impact of local contact on two-phase flow within cleats.A visual generalized model of endogenous cleats was constructed based on microfluidics.A microscopic and mesoscopic observation technique was proposed to simultaneously capture gas-liquid interface morphology of pores and throat and the two-phase flow characteristics in entire cleat system.The local contact characteristics of cleats reduced absolute permeability,which resulted in a sharp increase in the starting pressure.The reduced gas flow capacity narrowed the co-infiltration area and decreased water saturation at the isotonic point in a hydrophilic environment.The increased local contact area of cleats weakened gas phase flow capacity and narrowed the co-infiltration area.Jumping events occurred in methane-water flow due to altered porosity caused by local contact in cleats.The distribution of residual phases changed the jumping direction on the micro-scale as well as the dominant channel on the mesoscale.Besides,jumping events caused additional energy dissipation,which was ignored in traditional two-phase flow models.This might contribute to the overestimation of relative permeability.The work provides new methods and insights for investigating unsaturated flow in complex porous media.

文摘In this study, the three-dimensional non-premixed two-phase kerosene/air rotating detonation engines with different isolator configurations and throat area ratios are simulated by the Eulerian-Lagrangian method. The effects of the divergence, straight, and convergence isolators on the rotating detonation wave dynamics and the upstream oblique shock wave propagation mechanism are analyzed. The differences in the rotating detonation wave behaviors between ground and flight operations are clarified.The results indicate that the propagation regimes of the upstream oblique shock wave depend on the isolator configurations and operation conditions. With a divergence isolator, the airflow is accelerated throughout the isolator and divergence section, leading to a maximum Mach number(~1.8) before the normal shock. The total pressure loss reaches the largest, and the detonation pressure drops. The upstream oblique shock wave can be suppressed within the divergence section with the divergence isolator.However, for the straight and convergence isolators, the airflow in the isolator with a larger ψ_(1)(0.3 and0.4) can suffer from the disturbance of the upstream oblique shock wave. The critical incident angle is around 39° at ground operation conditions. The upstream oblique shock wave tends to be suppressed when the engine operates under flight operation conditions. The critical pressure ratio β_(cr0) is found to be able to help in distinguishing the propagation regimes of the upstream oblique shock wave. Slightly below or above the β_(cr0) can obtain different marginal propagation results. The high-speed airflow in the divergence section affects the fuel droplet penetration distance, which deteriorates the reactant mixing and the detonation area. Significant detonation velocity deficits are observed and the maximum velocity deficit reaches 26%. The results indicate the engine channel design should adopt different isolator configurations based on the purpose of total pressure loss or disturbance suppression. This study can provide useful guidance for the channel design of a more complete two-phase rotating detonation engine.

文摘Two-phase partitioning bioreactors(TPPBs)have been widely used because they overcome the mass-transfer limitation of hydrophobic volatile organic compounds(VOCs)in waste gas biological treatments.Understanding the mechanisms of mass-transfer enhancement in TPPBs would enable efficient predictions for further industrial applications.In this study,influences of gradually increasing silicone oil ratio on the TPPB was explored,and a 94.35%reduction of the n-hexane partition coefficient was observed with 0.1 vol.%silicone,which increased to 80.7%along with a 40-fold removal efficiency enhancement in the stabilised removal period.The elimination capacity increased from 1.47 to 148.35 g/(m^(3)·h),i.e.a 101-fold increase compared with that of the single-phase reactors,when 10 vol.%(3 Critical Micelle Concentration)silicone oil was added.The significantly promoted partition coefficient was the main reason for the mass transfer enhancement,which covered the negative influences of the decreased total mass-transfer coefficient with increasing silicone oil volume ratio.The gradually rising stirring rate was benefit to the n-hexane removal,which became negative when the dominant resistance shifted from mass transfer to biodegradation.Moreover,a mass-transfer-reaction kinetic model of the TPPB was constructed based on the balance of n-hexane concentration,dissolved oxygen and biomass.Similar to the mechanism,the partition factor was predicted sensitive to the removal performance,and another five sensitive parameters were found simultaneously.This forecasting method enables the optimisation of TPPB performance and provides theoretical support for hydrophobic VOCs degradation.

文摘With the increasing miniaturization of systems and surging demand for power density,accurate prediction and control of two-phase flow pressure drop have become a core challenge restricting the performance of microchannel heat exchangers.Pressure drop,a critical hydraulic characteristic,serves as both a natural constraint for cooling systems and determines the power required to pump the working fluid through microchannels.This paper reviews the characteristics,prediction models,and optimization measures of two-phase flow pressure drop for low-boiling-point working fluids in microchannels.It systematically analyzes key influencing factors such as fluid physical properties,operating conditions,channel geometry,and flow patterns,and discusses the complex mechanisms of pressure drop under the coupling effect of multi-physical fields.Mainstream prediction models are reviewed:the homogeneous flow model simplifies calculations but shows large deviations at low quality;the separated flow model considers interphase interactions and can be applied to micro-scales after modification;the flow-pattern-based model performs zoned modeling but relies on subjective classification;machine learning improves prediction accuracy but faces the“black-box”problem.In terms of optimization,channel designs are improved through porous structures and micro-rib arrays,and flow rate distribution is optimized using splitters to balance pressure drop and heat transfer performance.This study provides theoretical support for microchannel thermal management in high-power-density devices.

文摘By combining with an improved model on engraving process,a two-phase flow interior ballistic model has been proposed to accurately predict the flow and energy conversion behaviors of pyrotechnic actuators.Using computational fluid dynamics(CFD),the two-phase flow and piston engraving characteristics of a pyrotechnic actuator are investigated.Initially,the current model was utilized to examine the intricate,multi-dimensional flow,and energy conversion characteristics of the propellant grains and combustion gas within the pyrotechnic actuator chamber.It was discovered that the combustion gas on the wall's constant transition from potential to kinetic energy,along with the combined effect of the propellant motion,are what create the pressure oscillation within the chamber.Additionally,a numerical analysis was conducted to determine the impact of various parameters on the pressure oscillation and piston motion,including pyrotechnic charge,pyrotechnic particle size,and chamber structural dimension.The findings show that decreasing the pyrotechnic charge will lower the terminal velocity,while increasing and decreasing the pyrotechnic particle size will reduce the pressure oscillation in the chamber.The pyrotechnic particle size has minimal bearing on the terminal velocity.The results of this investigation offer a trustworthy forecasting instrument for comprehending and creating pyrotechnic actuator designs.

文摘The exosomes hold significant potential in disease diagnosis and therapeutic interventions.The objective of this study was to investigate the potential of aqueous two-phase systems(ATPSs)for the separation of bovine milk exosomes.The milk exosome partition behaviors and bovine milk separation were investigated,and the ATPSs and bovine milk whey addition was optimized.The optimal separation conditions were identified as 16%(mass)polyethylene glycol 4000,10%(mass)dipotassium phosphate,and 1%(mass)enzymatic hydrolysis bovine milk whey.During the separation process,bovine milk exosomes were predominantly enriched in the interphase,while protein impurities were primarily found in the bottom phase.The process yielded bovine milk exosomes of 2.0×10^(11)particles per ml whey with high purity(staining rate>90%,7.01×10^(10)particles per mg protein)and high uniformity(polydispersity index<0.03).The isolated exosomes were characterized and identified by transmission electron microscopy,zeta potential and size distribution.The results demonstrated aqueous two-phase extraction possesses a robust capability for the enrichment and separation of exosomes directly from bovine milk whey,presenting a novel approach for the large-scale isolation of exosomes.

文摘As space technology advances,thermal control systems must effectively collect and dissipate heat from distributed,multi-source environments.Loop heat pipe is a highly reliable two-phase heat transfer component,but it has several limitations when addressing multi-source heat dissipation.Inspired by the transport and heat dissipation system of plants,large trees achieve stable and efficient liquid supply under the influence of two driving forces:capillary force during transpiration in the leaves(pull)and root pressure generated by osmotic pressure in the roots(push).The root pressure provides an effective liquid supply with a driving force exceeding 2 MPa,far greater than the driving force in conventional capillary-pumped two-phase loops.Research has shown that osmotic heat pipes offer a powerful driving force,and combining osmotic pressure with capillary force has significant advantages.Therefore,this paper designs a multi-evaporator,dual-drive two-phase loop,using both osmotic pressure and capillary force to solve the multi-source heat dissipation challenge.First,a transmembrane water flux model for the osmotic pressure-driven device was established to predict the maximum heat transfer capacity of the dual-drive two-phase loop.Then,an experimental setup for a multi-evaporator“osmotic pressure+capillary force”dual-drive two-phase loop was constructed,capable of transferring at least 235 W of power under a reverse gravity condition of 20 m.The study also analyzed the effects of reverse gravity height,heat load distribution among the three evaporators,startup sequence,and varying branch resistances on the performance of the dual-drive two-phase loop.

文摘Gas–liquid two-phase jets exhibit markedly enhanced impact performance due to the violent collapse of entrained bubbles,which generates transient microjets and shock waves.The geometry of the nozzle is a decisive factor in controlling jet formation,flow modulation,and impact efficiency.In this work,the structural optimization of gas–liquid two-phase nozzles was investigated numerically using the Volume of Fluid(VOF).Simulation results show that the aero-shaped nozzle delivers a significantly stronger impact on the target surface than conventional geometries.Specifically,its impact pressure is 21%higher than that of a conical straight nozzle and 37%higher than that of a conical nozzle.The aero nozzle not only increases peak impact pressure but also sustains it over a longer duration,leading to an overall improvement in energy transfer efficiency.Parametric analyses further reveal the key geometric conditions governing performance.When the nozzle curvature is set to 0.01,the jet achieves a higher and more stable surface pressure profile,maintaining elevated impact for a prolonged period.At an aspect ratio of 15,the jet exhibits pronounced pulsation under high pressure,thereby enhancing impact intensity.The contraction ratio exerts a non-monotonic influence:as it increases,impact pressure initially rises and subsequently declines,with an optimal value of 4 yielding the highest and most persistent impact pressure.Likewise,when the ratio of inlet length to outlet diameter is 2.5,the jet demonstrates the strongest impact on the target surface.
文摘Shale gas production involves complex gas-water two-phase flow,with flow patterns in proppant-filled fractures playing a critical role in determining production efficiency.In this study,3D geometric models of 40/70 mesh ceramic particles and quartz sand proppant clusters were elaborated using computed tomography(CT)scanning.These models were used to develop a numerical simulation framework based on the lattice Boltzmann method(LBM),enabling the investigation of gas-water flow behavior within proppant-filled fractures under varying driving forces and surface tensions.Simulation results at a closure pressure of 15 MPa have revealed that ceramic particles exhibit a simpler and more porous internal structure than quartz sand of the same size.Under identical flow conditions,ceramic proppants demonstrate higher fluid replacement efficiency.Replacement efficiency increases with higher porosity,greater driving force,and lower surface tension.Furthermore,fluid displacement is strongly influenced by pore geometry:flow is faster in straighter and wider channels,with preferential movement through larger pores forming dominant flow paths.The replacement velocity exhibits a characteristic time evolution,initially rapid,then gradually decreasing,correlating positively with the development of these dominant channels.
