At present, several techniques have been applied in measuring velocity of the blown sand particles. This paper reviews the measurement results of several commonly used methods: photoelectric cell method, high-speed photographic method, Particle Dynamics Analyzer (PDA) method and Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) method. Photoelectric cell method, high-speed photograph method and PDA method are useful in studying the velocity distribution of particles. PIV is a whole-flow-field technique and a useful tool to study the average velocity field in a target area. These methods got some similar results but considerable differences also exist. They have come to similar conclusions on the velocity distributions at a single height but direct measurement results with respect to the velocity distribution very close to the surface are still scarce except some PDA results. The magnitude of measured mean particle velocity differs greatly. The relationship obtained by different methods between mean particle velocity and wind velocity, particle size and possibly other influencing factors also differs considerably. Although several authors have proposed similar power functions to describe the variation with height of the mean particle velocity, the predicted results have wide differences. Each technique is based on some unique principles, and has its advantages and disad- vantages. To make full use of different techniques, a lot of work needs be done to validate them. Developing a reliable technique to measure the velocity of blown particles is still a necessary task in aeolian research.展开更多

In this model, phases interaction and the extra term of Bingham fluid yield stress are taken into account. An algorithm for USM-θ model in dense two-phase flow was proposed, in which the influence of particle volume fraction is accounted for. This model was used to simulate turbulent flow of Bingham fluid single-phase and dense liquid-particle two-phase in pipe. It is shown USM-θ model has better prediction result than the five-equation model, in which the particle-particle collision is modeled by the particle kinetic theory, while the turbulence of both phase is simulated by the two-equation turbulence model. The USM-θ model was then used to simulate the dense two-phase turbulent up flow of Bingham fluid with particles. With the increasing of the yield stress, the velocities of Bingham and particle decrease near the pipe centre. Comparing the two-phase flow of Bingham-particle with that of liquid-particle, it is found the source term of yield stress has significant effect on flow.展开更多

The particle erosion mathematical model, which considers particle-particle interaction, was established and used to simulate solid particle movement as well as particle erosion characteristics of the solid-liquid two-phase flow in a choke. The corresponding erosion reduction approach by setting ribs on the inner wall of the choke was advanced. This mathematical model includes three parts: the flow field simulation of the continuous carrier fluid by an Eulerian approach, the particle interaction simulation using the discrete particle hard sphere model by a Lagrangian approach and calculation of erosion rate using semiempirical correlations. The results show that particles accumulated in a narrow region from inlet to outlet of the choke and the dominating factor affecting particle motion is the fluid drag force. As a result, the optimization of rib geometrical parameters indicates that good anti-erosion performance can be achieved by four ribs, each of them with a height (H) of 3 mm and a width (B) of 5 mm equaling the interval between ribs (L).展开更多

The LD method has the advantages of easily coupling with the direct simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) method for multi-scale flow simulations and dramatically reducing the numerical diffusion error and statistical scatter of the equilibrium particle methods. Liquidor solid-phase particles are introduced in the LD method. Their velocity and temperature updating are respectively, calculated from the motion equation and the temperature equation according to the local gas properties. Coupling effects from condensed phase to gas phase are modeled as momentum and energy sources, which are respectively, equal to the negative values of the total momentum and energy increase in liquid or solid phase. The modified method is compared with theoretical results for unsteady flows, and good agreements are obtained to indicate the reliability of the one-way gas-to-particle coupling models. Hybrid LD-DSMC algorithm is implemented and performed for nozzle discharging gas-liquid flow to show the prospect of the LD-DSMC scheme for multi-scale two-phase flow simulations.展开更多

The interaction between gas and particle turbulence is simulated using the transport equation of two-phase velocity correlation with a two-time-scale dissipation closure. The proposed model is applied to simulate dense gas-particle flows in a horizontal channel and a downer. Simulation results and their comparison with experimental results show that the model accounting for both anisotropic particle turbulence and particle-particle collision is obviously better than models accounting for only particle turbulence or only particle-particle collision. The USM-Θ model is also better than the k-ε-kp-Θ model and the k-ε-kp-εp-Θ model in that the first model can simulate the redistribution of anisotropic particle Reynolds stress components due to inter-particle collision, whereas the second and third models cannot.展开更多

Laden with very large particles, no significant atten...The particle modulations to turbulence in round jets were experimentally studied by means of two-phase velocity measurements with Phase Doppler Anemometer (PDA). Laden with very large particles, no significant attenuations of turbulence intensities were measured in the farfields, due to small two-phase slip velocities and particle Reynolds number. The gas-phase turbulence is enhanced by particles in the near-fields, but it is significantly attenuated by the small particles in the far-fields. The smaller particles have a more profound effect on the attenuation of turbulence intensities. The enhancements or attenuations of turbulence intensities in the far-fields depends on the energy production, transport and dissipation mechanisms between the two phases, which are determined by the particle prop- erties and two-phase velocity slips. The non-dimensional parameter CTI is introduced to represent the change of turbulence intensity.展开更多

The results agree well with the ones given by Chung and Troutt. Then one_coupling model was employed to calculate the particle motio n based on the computed flows. The results show that the particle motion is affe cted by flows obviously at the case of particle number St1 and negligibly at St1 ,particles distribute around the vortex structures uniformly at St ~1 . When perturbations with wavenumber 5 are introduced to vortex rings, part icles disperse wider along radial direction, which conforms to the experimental results. The degree of particle dispersion is in the direct ratio to the amplitu de of perturbation. The conclusions given in the paper are useful to the practic e usage.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 USM-θ model was then used to simulate the dense two-phase turbulent up flow of Bingham fluid with particles. With the increasing of the yield stress, the velocities of Bingham and particle decrease near the pipe centre. Comparing the two-phase flow of Bingham-particle with that of liquid-particle, it is found the source term of yield stress has significant effect on flow.

The results show that particles accumulated in a narrow region from inlet to outlet of the choke and the dominating factor affecting particle motion is the fluid drag force. As a result, the optimization of rib geometrical parameters indicates that good anti-erosion performance can be achieved by four ribs, each of them with a height (H) of 3 mm and a width (B) of 5 mm equaling the interval between ribs (L).

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 low diffusion (LD) particle method, proposed by Burt and Boyd, is modified for the near-continuum two-phase flow simulations. The LD method has the advantages of easily coupling with the direct simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) method for multi-scale flow simulations and dramatically reducing the numerical diffusion error and statistical scatter of the equilibrium particle methods. Liquidor solid-phase particles are introduced in the LD method. Their velocity and temperature updating are respectively, calculated from the motion equation and the temperature equation according to the local gas properties. Coupling effects from condensed phase to gas phase are modeled as momentum and energy sources, which are respectively, equal to the negative values of the total momentum and energy increase in liquid or solid phase. The modified method is compared with theoretical results for unsteady flows, and good agreements are obtained to indicate the reliability of the one-way gas-to-particle coupling models. Hybrid LD-DSMC algorithm is implemented and performed for nozzle discharging gas-liquid flow to show the prospect of the LD-DSMC scheme for multi-scale two-phase flow simulations.

文摘A second-order moment two-phase turbulence model for simulating dense gas-particle flows (USM-Θ model), combining the unified second-order moment twophase turbulence model for dilute gas-particle flows with the kinetic theory of particle collision, is proposed. The interaction between gas and particle turbulence is simulated using the transport equation of two-phase velocity correlation with a two-time-scale dissipation closure. The proposed model is applied to simulate dense gas-particle flows in a horizontal channel and a downer. Simulation results and their comparison with experimental results show that the model accounting for both anisotropic particle turbulence and particle-particle collision is obviously better than models accounting for only particle turbulence or only particle-particle collision. The USM-Θ model is also better than the k-ε-kp-Θ model and the k-ε-kp-εp-Θ model in that the first model can simulate the redistribution of anisotropic particle Reynolds stress components due to inter-particle collision, whereas the second and third models cannot.

文摘The particle modulations to turbulence in round jets were experimentally studied by means of two-phase velocity measurements with Phase Doppler Anemometer (PDA). Laden with very large particles, no significant attenuations of turbulence intensities were measured in the farfields, due to small two-phase slip velocities and particle Reynolds number. The gas-phase turbulence is enhanced by particles in the near-fields, but it is significantly attenuated by the small particles in the far-fields. The smaller particles have a more profound effect on the attenuation of turbulence intensities. The enhancements or attenuations of turbulence intensities in the far-fields depends on the energy production, transport and dissipation mechanisms between the two phases, which are determined by the particle prop- erties and two-phase velocity slips. The non-dimensional parameter CTI is introduced to represent the change of turbulence intensity.

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In this paper, the three_dimensional vo rtex filament method was used to simulate the evolution of vortex structures in the axisymmetric round jet. The results agree well with the ones given by Chung and Troutt. Then one_coupling model was employed to calculate the particle motio n based on the computed flows. The results show that the particle motion is affe cted by flows obviously at the case of particle number St1 and negligibly at St1 ,particles distribute around the vortex structures uniformly at St ~1 . When perturbations with wavenumber 5 are introduced to vortex rings, part icles disperse wider along radial direction, which conforms to the experimental results. The degree of particle dispersion is in the direct ratio to the amplitu de of perturbation. The conclusions given in the paper are useful to the practic e usage.

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WC particles reinforced CoCrFeNiMo high-entropy alloy(HEA)composite coatings were prepared on Cr12MoV steel successfully by laser cladding technology to improve the wear resistance of substrates.Effect of WC content on microstructure and wear property of the composite coatings was studied in detail.Large numbers of carbides with four main types:primary carbide crystals,eutectic structures,massive crystals growing along the periphery of the remaining WC particles and incompletely fused WC particles,were found to exist in the WC/CoCrFeNiMo composite coatings.With increasing WC content,the microhardness of coatings is gradually improved while the average friction coefficients follow the opposite trend due to solid solution strengthening and second phase strengthening effect.The maximum microhardness and minimum friction coefficient are HV_(0.2)689.7 and 0.72,respectively,for the composite coating with 30 wt.%WC,the wear resistance of the substrate is improved significantly,the wear mechanisms are spalling wear and abrasive wear due to their high microhardness.

文摘Polybrominated biphenyl ethers(PBDEs)and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons(PAHs)are commonly detected contaminants at e-waste recycling sites.Against the conventional wisdom that PBDEs and PAHs are highly immobile and persist primarily in shallowsurface soils,increasing evidence shows that these compounds can leach into the groundwater.Herein,we compare the leachabilities of PBDEs vs.PAHs from contaminated soils collected at an e-waste recycling site in Tianjin,China.Considerable amounts of BDE-209(0.3–2 ng/L)and phenanthrene(42–106 ng/L),the most abundant PBDE and PAH at the site,are detected in the effluents of columns packed with contaminated soils,with the specific concentrations varying with hydrodynamic and solution chemistry conditions.Interestingly,the leaching potential of BDE-209 appears to be closely related to the release of colloidal mineral particles,whereas the leachability of phenanthrene correlates well with the concentration of dissolved organic carbon in the effluent,but showing essentially no correlation with the concentration of mineral particles.The surprisingly different trends of the leachability observed between BDE-209 and phenanthrene is counterintuitive,as PBDEs and PAHs often co-exist at e-waste recycling sites(particularly at the sites wherein incineration is being practiced)and share many similarities in terms of physicochemical properties.One possible explanation is that due to its extremely low solubility,BDE-209 predominantly exists in free-phase(i.e.,as solid(nano)particles),whereas the more soluble phenanthrene is mainly sorbed to soil organic matter.Findings in this study underscore the need to better understand the mobility of highly hydrophobic organic contaminants at contaminated sites for improved risk management.

文摘Densely distributed coherent nanoparticles(DCN)in steel matrix can enhance the work-hardening ability and ductility of steel simultaneously.All the routes to this end can be generally classified into the liquid-solid route and the solid-solid route.However,the formation of DCN structures in steel requires long processes and complex steps.So far,obtaining steel with coherent particle enhancement in a short time remains a bottleneck,and some necessary steps remain unavoidable.Here,we show a high-efficiency liquid-phase refining process reinforced by a dynamic magnetic field.Ti-Y-Mn-O particles had an average size of around(3.53±1.21)nm and can be obtained in just around 180 s.These small nanoparticles were coherent with the matrix,implying no accumulated dislocations between the particles and the steel matrix.Our findings have a potential application for improving material machining capacity,creep resistance,and radiation resistance.

文摘Thermodynamic modeling is still themostwidely usedmethod to characterize aerosol acidity,a critical physicochemical property of atmospheric aerosols.However,it remains unclear whether gas-aerosol partitioning should be incorporated when thermodynamicmodels are employed to estimate the acidity of coarse particles.In this work,field measurements were conducted at a coastal city in northern China across three seasons,and covered wide ranges of temperature,relative humidity and NH_(3) concentrations.We examined the performance of different modes of ISORROPIA-II(a widely used aerosol thermodynamic model)in estimating aerosol acidity of coarse and fine particles.The M0 mode,which incorporates gas-phase data and runs the model in the forward mode,provided reasonable estimation of aerosol acidity for coarse and fine particles.Compared to M0,the M1 mode,which runs the model in the forward mode but does not include gas-phase data,may capture the general trend of aerosol acidity but underestimates pH for both coarse and fine particles;M2,which runs the model in the reverse mode,results in large errors in estimated aerosol pH for both coarse and fine particles and should not be used for aerosol acidity calculations.However,M1 significantly underestimates liquid water contents for both fine and coarse particles,while M2 provides reliable estimation of liquid water contents.In summary,our work highlights the importance of incorporating gas-aerosol partitioning when estimating coarse particle acidity,and thus may help improve our understanding of acidity of coarse particles.
