Actually, many casting phenomena have close relationship with the multi-phase flow, such as molten metal filling process, air entrapment, slag movement, venting process of die casting, gas escaping of lost foam casting and so on. Obviously, in order to analyze these phenomena accurately, numerical simulation of the multi-phase fluid is necessary. Unfortunately, so far, most of the commercial casting simulation systems do not have the ability of multi-phase flow modeling due to the difficulty in the multi-phase flow calculation. In the paper, Finite Different Method (FDM) technique was adopt to solve the multi-phase fluid model. And a simple object of the muiti-phase fluid was analyzed to obtain the fluid rates of the liquid phase and the entrapped air phase.展开更多

These projects employ pick-milling machines to extract minerals and rock by mechanical breakage.The machines are equipped with flooded-bed scrubbers that encase dust particles within fine water films as particles encounter a flooded wire-mesh screen. A major disadvantage is that the screen gets clogged when particles become trapped within the wire mesh, reducing airflow through the scrubber and increasing ambient dust concentrations. Thus, the system requires frequent maintenance or replacement. The application of a Vortecone scrubber as an improved alternative to conventional fibrous type scrubbers is investigated. A Vortecone forces dust-laden air and water to follow a complex, rapidly swirling motion.The momentum drives dust particles towards the periphery where they are captured by the water film.The operating characteristics of a reduced-scale physical model of a Vortecone, with its primary axis mounted in the horizontal orientation, was analyzed numerically and experimentally. Computational fluid dynamics(CFD) models depicting the spraying action and multi-phase air/water flows using the volume of fraction(VOF) approach, are presented. Experimental results, utilizing an optical particle counting technique to establish the dust-cleaning capabilities of the model, are also described.展开更多

Block matrix is inverted by Gauss-Seidel iteration in two dimensional plane while strongly implicit alternating sweeping is implemented in the direction of the third dimension. Very rapid convergence rate is obtained with CFL number reaching the order of 100. The memory resources can be greatly saved too. It is verified that the reflection boundary condition can not be used with flux vector splitting since it will produce too large numerical dissipation. The computed flow fields agree well with experimental results. Only one or two grid points are there within the shock transition zone.展开更多

We improve in thiscode the distribution of the number of grid points over wing and body surfaces,and keepthe training edge of the wing being one of the grid lines even when the edge has sweepbackor sweep forward.The code developed can provide not only the spanwise pressure distribu-tion as usual ou cross-flow planes,but also the chordwise Pressure distributions.The com-putation for NASA TN D-712 wing-body model with the present code shows that thecomputed pressure distributions are in very good agreement with the experiment.展开更多
