The curvature-driven noise reduction method is inserted into the conventional iteration procedure of algebraic reconstruction technique to improve the image quality and convergence speed with limited projection data. By evolving the image as a set of iso-intensity contours after each updation, the sufficient number of iterations for acceptable results is reduced by 80%-90%, while the image quality is enhanced obviously. Quantitative evaluation of image quality is given by using both relative image error and correlation coefficient. The resultant images can be utilized to detect flow regimes for monitoring industrial multiphase flow. Laboratory results demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed method. Phantoms of four typical flow regimes can be reconstructed from few-view projection data efficiently, and the corresponding image errors and correlation coefficients are acceptable for the cases tested in this paper.展开更多

The gas fluid, the superheated liquid metal and the liquid metal containing solid grains are assumed to be governed by Navier-Stokes equations and solved through Projection method. The Level set method is used to track the gas-liquid interface boundary. In order to demonstrate the correctness of this new program for simulation of gas-liquid two-phase mold filling in casting, a benchmark filling experiment is simulated （this benchmark test is designed by XU and the filling process is recorded by a 16-mm film camera）. The simulated results agree very well with the experimental results, showing that this new program can be used to properly predicate the gas-liquid two-phase mold filling simulation in casting.展开更多

The high performance of the level set method for multi-material interfaces is demonstrated. Discontinuous Galerkin finite element method is used to solve Euleri- an equations. And the fifth-order weighted essentially non-oscillatory （WENO） scheme is used to solve the level set equation for capturing multi-material interfaces. The ghost fluid method is used to deal with the interfacial boundary condition. Results are obtained for two bubble interacting with a moving shock. The contours of the constant density and the pressure at different time are given. In the computational domain, three different cases are considered, i.e. two helium bubbles, a helium bubble followed by an R22 bubble in the direction of the moving shock, and an R22 bubble followed by a helium bubble. Computational results indicate that multi-mate- rial interfaces can be properly captured by the level set method. Therefore, for problems involving the flow of three different materials with two different interfaces, each interface separating two different materials can be similarly handled.展开更多
