采动覆岩导水裂隙主通道分布模型及其水流动特性

含水层受采动破坏后其赋存水体并非均匀地由覆岩各区域漏失至采空区,其在导水裂隙带范围内应存在水体流动的主要通道;研究揭示导水裂隙主通道的分布规律及其水流动特性对于科学指导井下涌水量预计、顶板水害防治、保水采煤等具有重要意义。基于导水裂隙类型划分及其渗流/管流力学分析,就采动漏失水体的流动主通道分布模型进行了研究。结果表明:开采边界外侧岩体受超前支承压力作用易产生峰后压剪裂隙,裂隙导水属非达西渗流流态;而由岩层破断回转运动产生的拉剪裂隙,由于裂隙导水雷诺数相对偏大,其导水流态一般属于管流范畴,且受岩层破断位置相对开采区域的不同,又可将其划分为采区边界附近的上端张拉裂隙和下端张拉裂隙、以及中部压实区的贴合裂隙这3种。据此利用Forcheimer公式和伯努利方程对比揭示了上述2类4种裂隙导水流动特性的差异。研究得出开采边界附近的上端张拉裂隙在进流口开度、导水流量、出口流速等特征参数上均领先于其他裂隙;且由于其出口水压较小,其水流还会受到两侧邻近的压剪裂隙和下端张拉裂隙出口水流的水平径流补给。因而,含水层采动漏失水体多由上端张拉裂隙导流而来。由此基于岩层控制的关键层理论,构建形成了以关键层在开采边界处的破断尺寸参数为依据的导水裂隙带主通道分布模型。

Three-dimensional numerical simulation of the flow past a circular cylinder based on LES method

The hydrodynamic characteristics of a rigid, single, circular cylinder in a three dimensional, incompressible, uniform cross flow were calculated using the large-eddy simulation method of CFX5. Solutions to the three dimensional N-S equations were obtained by the finite volume method. The focus of this numerical simulation was to research the characteristics of pressure distribution （drag and litt forces） and vortex tubes at high Reynolds numbers. The results of the calculations showed that the forces at every section in the spanwise direction of the cylinder were symmetrical about the middle section and smaller than the forces calculated in two dimensional cases. Moreover, the flow around the cylinder obviously presents three dimensional characteristics.

An Experimental Study on the Flow Characteristics of OilWater Two-Phase Flow in Horizontal Straight Pipes

The flow patterns and their transitions of oil-water two-phase flow in horizontal pipes were studied. The experiments were conducted in two kinds of horizontal tubes, made of plexiglas pipe and stainless steel pipe with 40 mm ID respectively. No. 46 mechanical oil and tap water were used as working fluids. The superflcial velocity ranges of oil and water were: 0.04-1.2m·s-1 and 0.04-2.2m·s-1, respectively. The flow patterns were identified by visualization and by transient fluctuation signals of differential pressure drop. The flow patterns were defined according to the relative distribution of oil and water phases in the pipes. Flow pattern maps were obtained for both pipelines. In addition, semi-theoretical transition criteria for the flow patterns were proposed, and the proposed transitional criteria are in reasonable agreement with available data in liquid-liquid systems.

Numerical Simulation of Enhanced Oil-Water Separation in a Three-Stage Double-Stirring Extraction Tank

Numerical simulation of enhanced fluid flow characteristics in a three-stage double-stirring extraction tank was conducted with the coupling of an Eulerian multiphase flow model and a Morsi-Alexander interphase drag force model. Results show that the addition of a stirring device into the settler can efficiently reduce the volume fraction of out-of-phase impurity in the outlet, and accelerate the settling separation of oil-water mixture. Such addition can also effectively break down the oil-water-wrapped liquid droplets coming from the mixer, inhibit reflux from the outlet, and improve the oil-water separation. The addition of a stirring device induces ignorable power consumption compared with that by the mixer, and can thus facilitate the commercialized promotion of this novel equipment.

Analysis of the wave propagation and the flow char-acteristics around cylinder due to dam break water

Dam breaks are easily triggered by heavy rains due to extreme weather such as typhoons,causing serious economic losses and casualties.Through the investigation of Chaoshan coastal zone,it is found that there have been dam breaks caused by geological disasters.In the design and management of water conservancy project,it is very important to analyze the effect of disastrous flow caused by dam break on the building.In this paper,the effect of the dam break flow on the cylinder is simulated numerically by taking the water body with initial velocity as the dam break flow,and the flow characteristics around the cylinder and the water body are analyzed.Numerical model adopted the Renault Average Navier-Stokes(RANS)model and volume of fluid(VOF)method to analyze the evolution of free water surface.It is found that there are different patterns of water movement in the process of dam break resulting in the creation of several isolated convex hull forms of dam-break waves on the stationary water surface,which causes longer disturbances in the water near the cylinder and makes the cylinder more vulnerable to fatigue damage.The increase of the height of the dam breaking water will lead to the increase of the hydrodynamic force on the pipeline.This study has guiding significance for the study of dam break and dam body design in water conservancy projects.

Hydrodynamic Behavior in a Rotating Zigzag Bed

As a high gravity(HIGEE)unit,the rotating packed bed(RPB)uses centrifugal force to intensify mass transfer.Zigzag rotating bed(RZB)is a new type of HIGEE unit.The rotor of RZB consists of stationary discs and rotating discs,forming zigzag channels for liquid-gas flow and mass transfer.As in RPBs,some hydrodynamic behavior in RZB is interesting but no satisfactory explanation.In this study,the experiments were carried on in a RZB unit with a rotor of 600 mm in diameter using air-water system.The gas pressure drop and power consumption were measured with two types of rotating baffle for RZB rotors,one with perforations and another with shutter openings. The circumferential velocities of gas were measured with a five-hole Pitot probe.The pressure drop decreased rapidly when the liquid was introduced to the rotor,because the circumferential velocity of the liquid droplets was lower than that of the gas,reducing the circumferential velocity of gas and the centrifugal pressure drop.The power consumption decreased first when the gas entered the RZB rotor,because the gas with higher circumferential velocity facilitates the rotation of baffles.

Variation of Floods Characteristics and Their Responses to Climate and Human Activities in Poyang Lake, China

The Poyang Lake is one of the most frequently flooded areas in China. Understanding the changing characteristics of floods as well as the affecting factors is an important prerequisite of flood disaster prevention and mitigation. The present study identified the characteristics variations of historical floods in the Poyang Lake and their tendencies based on the Mann-Kendall(M-K) test, and also investigated the related affecting factors, both from climate and human activities. The results revealed that the highest flood stages, duration as well as hazard coefficient of floods showed a long-term increasing linear trend during the last 60 years with the M-K statistic of 1.49, 1.60 and 1.50, respectively. And, a slightly increasing linear trend in the timing of the highest stages indicated the floods occurred later and later during the last six decades. The rainfall during the flood season and subsequent discharges of the Changjiang(Yangtze) River and runoff from the Poyang Lake Basin were mainly responsible for the severe flood situation in the Poyang Lake in the 1990 s. In addition, the intensive human activities, including land reclamation and levee construction, also played a supplementary role in increasing severity of major floods. While, the fewer floods in the Poyang Lake after 2000 can be attributed to not only the less rainfall over the Poyang Lake Basin and low discharges of the Changjiang River during flood periods, but also the stronger influences of human activity which increased the floodwater storage of the Poyang Lake than before.

The properties of dilute debris flow and hyper-concentrated flow in different flow regimes in open channels

Particle Image Velocimetry(PIV) technique was used to test the analogues of hyperconcentrated flow and dilute debris flow in an open flume. Flow fields, velocity profiles and turbulent parameters were obtained under different conditions. Results show that the flow regime depends on coarse grain concentration. Slurry with high fine grain concentration but lacking of coarse grains behaves as a laminar flow. Dilute debris flows containing coarse grains are generally turbulent flows. Streamlines are parallel and velocity values are large in laminar flows. However, in turbulent flows the velocity diminishes in line with the intense mixing of liquid and eddies occurring. The velocity profiles of laminar flow accord with the parabolic distribution law. When the flow is in a transitional regime, velocity profiles deviate slightly from the parabolic law. Turbulent flow has an approximately uniform distribution of velocity and turbulent kinetic energy. The ratio of turbulent kinetic energy to the kinetic energy of time-averaged flow is the internal cause determining the flow regime: laminar flow(k/K<0.1); transitional flow(0.1< k/K<1); and turbulent flow(k/K>1). Turbulent kinetic energy firstly increases with increasing coarse grain concentration and then decreases owing to the suppression of turbulence by the high concentration of coarse grains. This variation is also influenced by coarse grain size and channel slope. The results contribute to the modeling of debris flow and hyperconcentrated flow.

Effect of attack angle change on hydrodynamic character of supercavitating bodies

A series of experiments has been done in a moderate-velocity cavitation tunnel to investigate the effects of attack angle change on hydrodynamic characters of supercavitation. Hydrodynamic characters of the aft section at various attack angles were compared. The investigation shows that hydrodynamic forces of the aft section are dependent of supercavity shapes at different attack angles,and the magnitude of hydrodynamic forces of the aft section varies with the change of attack angle. When the aft section is in the fully wetted case,the drag coefficient changes little. Lift and moment coefficients both increase with the increased attack angle,and the increase magnitude is not large. When the aft body planing is on the cavity boundary,the drag coefficient of nonzero attack angle is larger than that of zero attack angle,and the maximal lift and moment coefficients both vary obviously with the increased attack angle. In the case that the body is fully enveloped by cavity,the drag coefficient,lift coefficient and moment coefficient are nearly constant with the change of attack angles.

Experimental study on pressure fluctuation characteristics of slug flow in horizontal curved tubes

In order to study the pressure characteristics of slug flow in horizontal curved tubes,two kinds of curved tubes with central angle 45° and 90° respectively are studied,of which are with 0. 5m circumference and 26 mm inner diameter are used. When the superficial liquid velocity or the superficial gas velocity is constant,the pressure fluctuations and the probability distribution of the average velocity of slug flow are clear for all of the five experimental conditions. The results of experiment show that the pressure characteristics of slug flow in curved tubes have periodic fluctuations. With the rise of central angle,the period of pressure fluctuation is more obvious. The system pressure of the slug flow increases with the increasing of superficial liquid/gas velocity. Meanwhile,the probability distribution of pressure signal shows regularity,such as unimodal,bimodal or multimodal.

Hydraulic Characteristics Analysis for Spacer Grid with Flow Openings on Outer Straps

In advanced nuclear fuel design, the outer strap of a spacer grid plays an important role on fuel assembly mechanical and thermal-hydraulic performance, e.g., precluding the risk of hang-up and improvement on the mixing of the coolant. The communication of the outer strap affects the hydraulic force exerted by the spacer grid of the fuel assembly which could induce fuel assembly bow. In present study, in order to understand the influencing factors of hydraulic force exerted by the spacer grid, outer straps with various flow opening design features, different location and size are investigated by a commercially CFD （computational fluid dynamics） code, ANSYS CFX 12.1. Three dimensional rod bundles including the outer strap without and with different openings are modelled for simulation. The analysis results show that the openings on the spacer grid outer strap can reduce the lateral hydraulic loadings perpendicular to the centerline of the fuel rods exerted by the spacer grids obviously because of the pressures inside and outside the spacer grids being balanced. Besides, influences of the opening design features on the hydraulic force, resistance characteristics and lateral flow factor are investigated in details.

Influence of inflow conditions on the hydrodynamic characteristics of floating photovoltaic membrane structures

The floating photovoltaic membrane prototype developed by Ocean Sun was selected as a reference object,and a 1∶40 scale laboratory model was designed and produced to further explore the impact of inflow conditions on the hydrodynamic properties of the membrane structure.By conducting free attenuation tests,results showed that the inflow has only a slight effect on the natural frequencies of the heave,pitch,and surge of the membrane structure.This finding shows that the dynamic properties of the membrane structure remain essentially stable under different inflow conditions.The results of further regular and irregular wave hydrodynamic experiments show that,compared with the control group,the response of the membrane structure under inflow conditions in terms of heave,pitch,surge,and heave acceleration motions is relatively gentle,whereas the response of the membrane structure to the mooring force is strong.Especially when the waves are irregular,the inflow conditions have a more significant impact on the membrane structure,which may lead to more complex response changes in the structure.Therefore,in the actual engineering design process,the impact of inflow conditions on the behavior of the membrane structure must be fully considered,and appropriate engineering measures must be taken to ensure the safety and stability of the structure.

Effect of Placements (horizontal with vertical) on Gas-solid Flow and Particle Impact Erosion in Gate Valve

Gate valve has various placements in the practical usages.Due to the effect of gravity,particle trajectories and erosions are distinct between placements.Thus in this study,gas-solid flow properties and erosion in gate valve for horizontal placement and vertical placement are discussed and compared by using Euler-Lagrange simulation method.The structure of a gate valve and a simplified structure are investigated.The simulation procedure is validated in our published paper by comparing with the experiment data of a pipe and an elbow.The results show that for all investigated open degrees and Stokes numbers(St),there are little difference of gas flow properties and flow coefficients between two placements.It is also found that the trajectories of particles for two placements are mostly identical when St << 1,making the erosion independent of placement.With the increase of St,the distinction of trajectories between placements becomes more obvious,leading to an increasing difference of the erosion distributions.Besides,the total erosion ratio of surface T for horizontal placement is two orders of magnitudes larger than that for vertical placement when the particle diameter is 250 μm.
