Thermophoresis effects on gas-particle phases flow behaviors in entrained flow coal gasifier using Eulerian model

A numerical model based on the Eulerian–Eulerian two-fluid approach is used to simulate the gasification of coal char inside an entrained flow gasifier. In this model, effects of thermophoresis of coal char particles are thoroughly investigated. The thermophoresis is due to the gas temperature gradient caused by absorpted heat of coal char gasification. This work, firstly, calculates the gas temperature gradient and thermophoretic force at1100 °C,1200 °C,1300 °C and 1400 °C wall temperatures. Then, the changes of particle volume fraction and velocity in the gasifier are studied in the simulation with thermophoresis or not. The results indicate that considering the particle thermophoresis has some effects on the calculation of particle volume fraction in the gasifier, especially at wall temperature of 1400 °C, and the maximum particle volume fraction variance ratio reaches up to 1.38% on wall surface of the gasifier. These effects are mainly caused by large gas temperature gradient along the radial direction of the gasifier. For the particle velocity, the changes are small but can be observable along radial direction of the gasifier, which has good agreement with the distributions of radial gas temperature gradient and thermophoretic force. These changes above may have certain effects on gasification reaction rates in this Eulerian model. So the change of gasification reaction rates in the simulation with thermophoresis or not is studied finally.

NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF WET STEAM CONDENSING FLOW WITH AN EULERIAN/EULERIAN MODEL

Wet steam condensing flow in low-pressure steam turbine leads to efficiency losses and blade erosions.In order to investigate this problem by numerical approach, an Eulerian/Eulerian model has been developed, in which the wet steam is regarded as mixture comprising two coupled systems: the vapor phase and the liquid phase.These two systems are both described by conservation equations.High resolution TVD scheme is employed to capture condensing phenomena in wet steam flow.This model has been validated by numerical simulations of condensing flows in 1D and 2D nozzles.Compared with experimental data, a good agreement is observed.This Eulerian/Eulerian model can be extended to 3D calculation of condensing flow.

Particulate flow modelling in a spiral separator by using the Eulerian multi-fluid VOF approach

The Euler-Euler model is less effective in capturing the free surface of flow film in the spiral separator,and thus a Eulerian multi-fluid volume of fluid(VOF)model was first proposed to describe the particulate flow in spiral separators.In order to improve the applicability of the model in the high solid concentration system,the Bagnold effect was incorporated into the modelling framework.The capability of the proposed model in terms of predicting the flow film shape in a LD9 spiral separator was evaluated via comparison with measured flow film thicknesses reported in literature.Results showed that sharp air–water and air-pulp interfaces can be obtained using the proposed model,and the shapes of the predicted flow films before and after particle addition were reasonably consistent with the observations reported in literature.Furthermore,the experimental and numerical simulation of the separation of quartz and hematite were performed in a laboratory-scale spiral separator.When the Bagnold lift force model was considered,predictions of the grade of iron and solid concentration by mass for different trough lengths were more consistent with experimental data.In the initial development stage,the quartz particles at the bottom of the flow layer were more possible to be lifted due to the Bagnold force.Thus,a better predicted vertical stratification between quartz and hematite particles was obtained,which provided favorable conditions for subsequent radial segregation.

Numerical simulation of sediment erosion by submerged jets using an Eulerian model

The erosion of loose beds by submerged circular impinging vertical turbulent jets is simulated using an Eulerian two-phase model which implements Euler-Euler coupled governing equations for fluid and solid phases, and a modified k-ε turbulence closure for the fluid phase. Both flow-particle and particle-particle interactions are considered in this model. The predictions of eroded bed profiles agree well with previous laboratory measurements and self-designed experiments. Analysis of the simulated results reveals that the velocity field of the jet water varies with various scouring intensities, that the scour depth and shape are mainly influenced by the driving force of the water when the density, diameter and porosity of the sand are the same, and that the porosity is an important contributor to sediment erosion. In this study, the scour depth, the height of dune and the velocity of the pore water increase with increasing porosity.

A hybrid Lagrangian-Eulerian numerical model for sea-ice dynamics

A hybrid Lagrangian-Eulerian(HLE) method is developed for sea ice dynamics,which combines the high computational efficiency of finite difference method(FDM) with the high numerical accuracy of smoothed particle hydrodynamics(SPH).In this HLE model,the sea ice cover is represented by a group of Lagrangian ice particles with their own thicknesses and concentrations.These ice variables are interpolated to the Eularian gird nodes using the Gaussian interpolation function.The FDM is used to determine the ice velocities at Eulerian grid nodes,and the velocities of Lagrangian ice particles are interpolated from these grid velocities with the Gaussian function also.The thicknesses and concentrations of ice particles are determined based on their new locations.With the HLE numerical model,the ice ridging process in a rectangular basin is simulated,and the simulated results are validated with the analytical solution.This method is also applied to the simulation of sea ice dynamics in a vortex wind field.At last,this HLE model is applied to the Bohai Sea,and the simulated concentration,thickness and velocity match the satellite images and the field observed data well.

Three-dimensional CFD simulation of inlet structure flow in pumping station based on Eulerian solid- liquid two-phase flow model

Sediment deposition in the pumping station has a huge negative impact on unit operation.The three-dimensional CFD method has been used to simulate inlet structure flow in pumping station based on the Eulerian solid- liquid two-phase flow model. The numerical results of the preliminary scheme show that sediment deposition occurs in the forebay of pumping station because of poor flow pattern therein. In order to improve hydraulic configuration in the forebay,one modified measure reconstructs water diversion weir shape,and another measure sets a water retaining sill in the approach channel. The simulation results of the modified scheme prove that back flow in the forebay has been eliminated and the sediment deposition region has also been reduced.

Universal critical properties of the Eulerian bond-cubic model

We investigate the Eulerian bond-cubic model on the square lattice by means of Monte Carlo simulations,using an efficient cluster algorithm and a finite-size scaling analysis.The critical points and four critical exponents of the model are determined for several values of n.Two of the exponents are fractal dimensions,which are obtained numerically for the first time.Our results are consistent with the Coulomb gas predictions for the critical O(n) branch for n < 2 and the results obtained by previous transfer matrix calculations.For n=2,we find that the thermal exponent,the magnetic exponent and the fractal dimension of the largest critical Eulerian bond component are different from those of the critical O(2) loop model.These results confirm that the cubic anisotropy is marginal at n=2 but irrelevant for n < 2.

适用欧拉-拉格朗日方法模拟气液泡状流的气泡破碎模型

欧拉-拉格朗日方法已被广泛应用于模拟鼓泡塔等气-液反应器内的流型、气泡尺寸(或气含率)及其分布。文献中该方法主要基于临界Weber数观点来描述气泡破碎行为,且破碎后的子气泡尺寸由随机数确定。但现有实验和理论研究表明,临界Weber数约束不能体现气体密度等物性参数和泡内气体重分布对气泡破碎行为的影响。针对这些不足,提出了适用欧拉-拉格朗日框架且考虑泡内气体重分布贡献的气泡破碎机理模型,并利用开源软件OpenFOAM开发了基于新破碎模型的求解器。新模型预测结果能较好地吻合实验测量的时均轴向液速、气泡尺寸及其分布等实验数据。特别地,考虑泡内气体重分布现象的破碎机理模型成功预测了实验观测的气泡尺寸双峰分布特征。

For simulating fresh and salt water mixing in estuaries, a three dimensional nonlinear baroclinic numerical model isdeveloped, in which the gradients of horizontal pressure contain the gradient of barotropic pressure arising from the gradi-ent of tidal level and the gradient of baroclinic pressure due to the gradient of salinity. The Eulerian-Lagrangian method isemployed to descretize both the momentum equations of tidal motion and the equation of salt water diffusion so as to im-prove the computational stability and accuracy.

The present model is used formodeling fresh and salt water mixing in the Yangtze Estuary. Computations show that the salinity distribution has thecharacteristics of partial mixing pattern, and that the present model is suitable for simulation of fresh and salt water mixing in the Yangtze Estuary.

Prediction of shear-related defect locations in semi-solid casting using numerical flow models

Contaminated surfaces of the feedstock materials in aluminum alloy casting processes often produce various types of defects which can affect the tensile properties of the final products as well as their fatigue reliabilities.Semi-solid processing takes advantage of a much higher apparent viscosity of the die cast materials by limiting the risk of oxides formed at the free surfaces to become incorporated into the casting when the material is injected into the die.Most of existing semi-solid processes that use billets as feedstock material are however tied up with a different type of contaminated surface.During the injection phase,the external-skin on the periphery of the billet,which has been in contact with air and lubricant during the transfer in the shot sleeve,can be incorporated into the casting.When subjected to a heat treatment,the lubricant is decomposed and produces lens shape porosities.This might be a cause of reject for most structural parts.To avoid this kind of defects,the paths along which the billet skin evolves must be controlled during filling.In order to investigate the possibility of skin inclusion into cast parts during injection of the billet,a two-phase finite element mixture model is employed to model the metal flow.The formation of a skin on the periphery of the billet is modeled by setting an initial solid phase concentration profile in the radial direction.Microscopic observations of the real castings show that the approach is able to model the shear layers and to predict the paths along which the"lens porosity"defects could be formed.An Arbitrary Eulerian-Lagangian(ALE) method is also investigated and appears to be very promising to follow the skin movement in the casting.

Model for Predicting the Transport and Dispersal of Contaminants Incoming with Submarine Groundwater: Case Study for the Southwestern Taiwan Coastal Zone

As was recognized recently, the submarine groundwater transports a significant amount of various contaminants into the coastal ocean. An assessment of the impact of intruded pollutants in the coastal ecosystems requires understanding fate of the pollutants and processes of their dispersal in ambient waters. In this paper, we proposed a 3-D coupled ocean circulation/particle-tracking model for predicting the transport and dispersal of pollution-containing groundwater discharged into a coastal environment of the southwestern Taiwan. The particle-tracking model takes currents and turbulent diffusivities predetermined by the ocean circulation model and uses the Lagrangian approach to predict the motion of individual droplets, the sum of which constitutes a contaminant plume in result of discharge of contaminant-rich submarine groundwater. The ocean circulation model was forced by tides and seasonal favorable winds for the south-western coast of Taiwan. The initialization of the coupled model was set using field data obtained in 2009 on the Ping-tung shelf where shallow aquifer seepages were discovered. Several types of numerical experiment scenarios were set up to elucidate the transport and dispersal of conservative and nonconservative (nitrate) contaminants in the shallow coastal zone. The comparison of obtained numerical results with observations performed by other researches was discussed.
