The effect of the continuous phase viscosity on the emulsification was studied. The theoretical analyses show that the continuous phase viscosity influences not only the flow field of the continuous phase but also the interfacial tension. The droplet size distribution and disperse phase flux for different continuous phase viscosity were investigated experimentally at constant wall shear stress and constant volume flow rate of the continuous phase respectively.展开更多

The viscosity of ...The effects of water content, shear rate, temperature, and solid particle concentration on viscosity reduction （VR） caused by forming stable emulsions were investigated using Omani heavy crude oil. The viscosity of the crude oil was initially measured with respect to shear rates at different temperatures from 20 to 70℃. The crude oil exhibited a shear thinning behavior at all the temperatures. The strongest shear thinning was observed at 20℃. A non-ionic water soluble surfactant （Triton X-100） was used to form and stabilize crude oil emulsions. The emulsification process has significantly reduced the crude oil viscosity. The degree of VR was found to increase with an increase in water content and reach its maximum value at 50 % water content. The phase inversion from oil- oil emulsion occurred at 30 in-water emulsion to water-in- % water content. The results indicated that the VR was inversely proportional to temperature and concentration of silica nanoparticles. For water-in-oil emulsions, VR increased with shear rate and eventually reached a plateau at a shear rate of around 350 s^-1. This was attributed to the thinning behavior of the continuous phase. The VR of oil-in-water emulsions remained almost constant as the shear rate increased due to the Newtonian behavior of water, the continuous phase.展开更多

Based on the fuel design concept, an oxygenated fuel named dimethoxy methane (DMM), which has lower viscosity, surface tension, and boiling point, was used to blend with diesel. The experiments were carried out under atmospheric conditions on a single-hole type diesel nozzle, liquid conditions comprise a temperature of 298 K under the needle valve opening pressure of 6 MPa. The results show that the sauter mean diameter (SMD) and spray cone angle of blended fuels decrease with the increase of DMM content; the axial mean velocity in the centerline increases with the increase of DMM. However, the spray behavior of blended fuel in which DMM exceeds 75% is virtually identical to that of neat DMM. The measurement also reveals the existence of an "S" shape in the radial mean velocity variations with radial distance.展开更多

This new type of flow discontinuity, unexplored so far in computational fluid dynamics, arises in the approximation of phase-flip(PF) hydrodynamics, where a highly dynamic fluid is allowed to reach the innermost limit of metastability at the spinodal, upon which an instantaneous relaxation to the full phase equilibrium(EQ) is assumed. A new element in the proposed method is artificial kinetics of the phase transition, represented by an artificial relaxation term in the energy equation for a "hidden"component of the internal energy, temporarily withdrawn from the fluid at the moment of the PF transition. When combined with an appropriate variant of artificial viscosity in the Lagrangian framework, the latter ensures convergence to exact discontinuous solutions, which is demonstrated with several test cases.展开更多

The combination of the plane wave hypothesis or the full wave model with the local viscosity model can accurately determine the heights and the locations of the resonance peaks. The upper bound for the appearance of fluid resonance in gaps is 2b/L〈l （2b, grating constant; L, wave length） and the lower bound is h/b〈~ l. The main reason for the phase shift of the resonance peaks is the inductive factors. The number of resonance peaks in the spectrum curve is dependent on the ratio of the gap length to the grating constant. The heights and the positions of the resonance peaks predicted by the present models agree well with the experimental data.展开更多

Addi...In recent years, more and more high Al2O3 iron ores were used in East Asia, especially in China, which increased the Al2O3 content in blast furnace (BF) slag and resulted in poor metallurgical properties of slag. Adding MgO-bearing flux is one of the methods to improve the metallurgical properties of slag with high Al2O3. However, there is lack of theoretical basis for the proper MgO/Al2O3 ratio. Therefore, the properties of slag in SiO2-CaO-MgO-Al2O3 system were investigated based on viscosity experiments and phase diagram analyses at 1500℃, and the proper MgO/Al2O3 ratio was explored according to the Al2O3 content in slag. The experimental results show that: (1) in the case of Al2O3 content less than 14mass%, there is no limitation of the MgO/Al2O3 ratio, and the amount of MgO in slag can be determined according to the hearth tempera-ture and desulfurization;(2) in the case of Al2O3 content between 15 and 17mass%, the proper MgO/Al2O3 ratio should be 0.40-0.50;(3) in the case of Al2O3 content between 18 and 20mass%, the proper MgO/Al2O3 ratio should be 0.45-0.55. Consequently, the three-segment control theory of MgO/Al2O3 for BF slag was built, and the actual BF performances proved the validity and applicability of this theory. The research contents and results can give theoretical guidelines for stable BF operation in a wide range of Al2O3 content of 12-20mass%.展开更多
