A linear stability analysis was adopted to predict the breakup characteristics of the power law film. The predicting formulas of stripping breakup length and diameter of ligament were put forward presently. Through high-speed photography and laser light sheet illumination,different breakup characteristics of flat power law film under different conditions were derived. The characteristic dimension of breakup regimes were defined and extracted. The effects of several parameters(injection pressure,ambient pressure, nozzle structure and fluid property) on the stripping breakup length and spray angle were investigated. The results revealed that increasing both the velocity of liquid film and the ambient pressure facilitated the breakup of film, reduced the stripping breakup length and enlarged the spray angle in different extents. The comparison between theoretical and experimental results was conducted to validate the feasibility of the linear stability theory.展开更多

An instantaneous measurement system is developed by integrating the laser focus displacement meter(LFDM) and high-speed camera to characterize the temporal evolution of the liquid film and the dynamic characteristics of continuous slug flows. A glass tube with internal diameter of 0.75 mm is used and the tested ranges of superficial gas and liquid velocities are 0.01–1.2 m/s and 0.01–0.09 m/s respectively. The non-zero signals of LFDM representing the bubble slug flows changed from regular periodic intervals to chaotic fluctuations when slug-annular flow pattern appears. The dominant frequencies of the periodic intermittent slug flows increased from about 0.5–2 Hz to nearly 10–20 Hz as the superficial gas velocity rised from 0.025 to 0.78 m/s. The bubble and liquid slug lengths calculated by the time interval of liquid film thickness and bubble velocity correlated well with the empirical model. Meantime, the average value of void fraction derived from the calculation of transient liquid film thickness shows a linear growth with the gas holdup ratio.展开更多

In this easel it is proposed that vapor condenses on the liquid film surface. Due to the effect of surface tension, the liquid exists in the form of liquid film ring contacting wall; when the velocity of vapor core decreases to zerol the condensation process ends. Putting forward the physical and mathematical models, the problem is solved and the multi-order equation of the thickness of liquid film is obtained, which includes terms of the pressure gradient along axial direction, the friction force between vapor and liquid on interface. By computational calculation, this model can be used not only to predict the thickness of liquid film, the condensation pressure gradient along the axial direction, but also to determine the Nusselt number, the condensation length and the total flow pressure drop of condensation etc. At the end, the calculation results of the necessary condensation length are compared approximately with those from the experiments, which are obtained on the test set-up placed horizontally in gravitation field, and the deviation is analyzed.展开更多
