Comparison of predicted gas velocity and temperature distributions with experimental results for the cases without liquid spray shows pretty good agreement. Gas-droplet two-phase flow predictions give plausible droplet trajectories, fuel-vapor concentration distribution, gas-phase velocity and temperature field in presence of liquid droplets. One run of computation with this method is made for a particular afterburner. The results indicate that the location of the atomizers is not favorable to flame stabilization and combustion efficiency. The proposed numerical modeling can also be adopted for optimization design and performance evaluation of afterburner combustors of turbo-fan jet engines.展开更多

In the cur- rent second-order SGS model, the SGS stress is a function of both the resolved strain-rate and rotation-rate tensors, and the model parameters are obtained from the dimensional consistency and the invariants of the strain-rate and the rotation-rate tensors. In the numerical calculation, the finite volume method is used to discretize the governing equations with a staggered grid system. The SIMPLEC algorithm is applied for the solution of the discretized governing equations. Body- fitted coordinates are used to simulate the two-phase flows in complex geometries. Finally the second-order dynamic SGS model is successfully applied to simulate the dense turbu-lent particle-liquid two-phase flows in a centrifugal impeller. The predicted pressure and velocity distributions are in good agreement with experimental results.展开更多

As the application of linear elements in SUPG/PSPG schemes gives rise to inconsistency in stabilization terms due to the inability to regenerate the diffusive term from viscous stresses, the numerical accuracy would deteriorate dramatically. To address this issue, projections of convection and pressure gradient terms are constructed and incorporated into the stabilization formulation in our method. This would substantially recover the consistency and free the practitioner from burdensome computations of most items in the residual. Moreover, the XFEM is employed to consider in a convenient way the fluid properties that have interfacial jumps leading to discontinuities in the velocity and pressure fields as well as the projections. A number of numerical examples are analyzed to demonstrate the complete recovery of consistency, the reproduction of interfacial discontinuities and the ability of the proposed projection-based SUPG/PSPG XFEM to model two-phase flows with open and closed interfaces.展开更多

The initial velocity slip between gas and droplets causes an interfacial momentum transfer flux as high as (2.0-5.0) x 104 Pa. The relaxation time corresponding to this transient process is in the range of 0.015-0.090ms for the two-phase flow formed inside the LJ and less than 0.5ms outside the LJ. It demonstrates the unique performance of this system for application to fast chemical reactions using electrically active media with a lifetime in the order of 1 ms. Through the simulations of the transient processes with initial Mach number Mg from 2.783 to 4.194 at different axial positions inside the LJ, it is found that Mg has the strongest effect on the process. The momentum flux increases as the Mach number decreases. Due to compression by the shock wave at the end of the LJ, the flow pattern becomes two dimensional and viscous outside the LJ. Laser Doppler velocirneter (LDV) measurements of droplet velocities outside the LJ are in reasonably good agreement with the results of the simulation.展开更多

Phase interaction terms with a clear physical meaning enter the equations and the formalism provides some guidelines for the avoidance of closure assumptions or the rational approximation of these terms. Continuous phase averaged continuity, momentum, turbulent kinetic energy and turbulence dissipation rate equations have been rigorously and systematically obtained in a single step. These equations display a structure similar to that for single-phase flows. It is also assumed that dispersed phase dynamics is well described by a probability density function (pdf) equation and Eulerian continuity, momentum and fluctuating kinetic energy equations for the dispersed phase are deduced. An extension of the standard k-e turbulence model for the continuous phase is used. A gradient transport model is adopted for the dispersed phase fluctuating fluxes of momentum and kinetic energy at the non-colliding, large inertia limit. This model is then used to predict the behaviour of three axisymmetric turbulent jets of air laden with solid particles varying in size and concentration. Qualitative and quantitative numerical predictions compare reasonably well with the three different sets of experimental results, studying the influence of particle size, loading ratio and flow confinement velocity.展开更多

The incompressible constraint has been replaced by a pressure Poisson-like equation and then the pressure is updated by the modified marker and cell method. Meanwhile, the moment equations in the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations are solved by our semidiscrete Hermite central-upwind scheme, and the interface between the two fluids is considered to be continuous and is described implicitly as the 0.5 level set of a smooth function being a smeared out Heaviside function. It is here named the hybrid scheme. Some numerical experiments are successfully carried out, which verify the desired efficiency and accuracy of our hybrid scheme.展开更多

Non-equilibrium effects, thermal and velocity lag results to the inefficiency of nozzle performance. In the present studies, theoretical analysis and numerical simulations were carried out to investigate particle-gas flows in a C-D nozzle. Homogeneous equilibrium model that no lag in velocity and temperature occurs between particles and gas phase was used to derive mass flow rate and sound speed of multiphase flows. Two-phase flows are regarded as isentropic flows that isentropic relations can be used for homogeneous equilibrium model. Discrete phase model （DPM） where interaction with continuous phase and discrete random walk model were considered was used to calculate particle- gas flows. Particle mass loadings were varied to investigate their effects on choking phenomena of particle-gas flows. Mass flow rate and sound speed of mixture flows were theoretically calculated by homogeneous equilibrium model and compared with numerical results. Shock wave structure and particle number density were also obtained to be different at different particle mass loading and operating pressure conditions.展开更多

The two-phase shock wave and the flow field behind it in a dusty gas shock tube are calculated and the time-dependent change of the flow parameters for the gas and particle phase are obtained. The numerical results indicate that both the two methods can give the relaxation structure of the two-phase shocks with a sharp discontinuous front and that the GRP method has the advantages of less time-consuming and higher accuracy over the RCM method.展开更多

Meanwhile, the moment equations in the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations are solved by our semidiscrete Hermite central-upwind scheme, and the interface between the two fluids is considered to be continuous and is described implicitly as the 0.5 level set of a smooth function being a smeared out Heaviside function. It is here named the hybrid scheme. Some numerical experiments are successfully carried out, which verify the desired efficiency and accuracy of our hybrid scheme.

文摘Particle-gas two-phase flows show significantly different behaviors compared to single gas flow through a convergent-divergent nozzle. Non-equilibrium effects, thermal and velocity lag results to the inefficiency of nozzle performance. In the present studies, theoretical analysis and numerical simulations were carried out to investigate particle-gas flows in a C-D nozzle. Homogeneous equilibrium model that no lag in velocity and temperature occurs between particles and gas phase was used to derive mass flow rate and sound speed of multiphase flows. Two-phase flows are regarded as isentropic flows that isentropic relations can be used for homogeneous equilibrium model. Discrete phase model （DPM） where interaction with continuous phase and discrete random walk model were considered was used to calculate particle- gas flows. Particle mass loadings were varied to investigate their effects on choking phenomena of particle-gas flows. Mass flow rate and sound speed of mixture flows were theoretically calculated by homogeneous equilibrium model and compared with numerical results. Shock wave structure and particle number density were also obtained to be different at different particle mass loading and operating pressure conditions.
文摘In the present paper, random-choice method (RCM) and second-order GRP difference method, which are high resolution methods used for pure gas flows with shocks, are extended and employed to study the problem of one-dimensional unsteady two-phase flows. The two-phase shock wave and the flow field behind it in a dusty gas shock tube are calculated and the time-dependent change of the flow parameters for the gas and particle phase are obtained. The numerical results indicate that both the two methods can give the relaxation structure of the two-phase shocks with a sharp discontinuous front and that the GRP method has the advantages of less time-consuming and higher accuracy over the RCM method.

文摘In this paper,we propose a novel probe to identify phases in any two-phase flows where one phase is conductive and the other nonconductive.We can further obtain many parameters such as void fraction,bubble velocity,and interfacial area concentration.Compared with the traditional probe,the novel probe has unique advantages that it is less dependent on water conductance or distance between the electrodes,and that the amplitude is bigger between high and low levels.Theoretical analyses showed that the measurement error became higher when water conductance decreases or distance increases,which is consistent with the theoretical analyses.Experimental results showed that the output signal kept constant with salt content of 0-5% and electrode distance of 0-30 mm in tap water.The level difference was up to 6.4 V,resulting in identifying two phases easily.Time traces of phase identification were completely consistent with the flow structures.

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Gas-liquid two-phase flow in fractal porous media is pivotal for engineering applications,yet it remains challenging to be accurately characterized due to complex microstructure-flow interactions.This study establishes a pore-scale numerical framework integratingMonte Carlo-generated fractal porousmedia with Volume of Fluid(VOF)simulations to unravel the coupling among pore distribution characterized by fractal dimension(Df),flow dynamics,and displacement efficiency.A pore-scale model based on the computed tomography(CT)microstructure of Berea sandstone is established,and the simulation results are compared with experimental data.Good agreement is found in phase distribution,breakthrough behavior,and flow path morphology,confirming the reliability of the numerical simulation method.Ten fractal porous media models with Df ranging from 1.25~1.7 were constructed using a Monte-Carlo approach.The gas-liquid two-phase flow dynamics was characterized using the VOF solver across gas injection rates of 0.05-5m/s,inwhich the time-resolved two-phase distribution patternswere systematically recorded.The results reveal that smaller fractal dimensions(Df=1.25~1.45)accelerate fingering breakthrough(peak velocity is 1.73 m/s at Df=1.45)due to a bimodal pore size distribution dominated by narrow channels.Increasing Df amplifies vorticity generation by about 3 times(eddy viscosity is 0.033 Pa⋅s at Df=1.7)through reduced interfacial curvature,while tortuosity-driven pressure differentials transition from sharp increases(0.4~6.3 Pa at Df=1.25~1.3)to inertial plateaus(4.8 Pa at Df=1.7).A nonlinear increase in equilibrium gas volume fraction(fav=0.692 at Df=1.7)emerges from residual gas saturation and turbulence-enhanced dispersion.This behavior is further modulated by flow velocity,with fav peaking at 0.72 under capillary-dominated conditions(0.05 m/s),but decreasing to 0.65 in the inertial regime(0.5 m/s).The work quantitatively links fractal topology to multiphase flow regimes,demonstrating the critical role of Df in governing preferential pathways,energy dissipation,and phase distribution.

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.
