纳米多孔介质中的流体流动

Fluid flow at nanoscale is closely related to many areas in nature and technology(e.g.,unconventional hydrocarbon recovery,carbon dioxide geo-storage,underground hydrocarbon storage,fuel cells,ocean desalination,and biomedicine).At nanoscale,interfacial forces dominate over bulk forces,and nonlinear effects are important,which significantly deviate from conventional theory.During the past decades,a series of experiments,theories,and simulations have been performed to investigate fluid flow at nanoscale,which has advanced our fundamental knowledge of this topic.However,a critical review is still lacking,which has seriously limited the basic understanding of this area.Therefore herein,we systematically review experimental,theoretical,and simulation works on single-and multi-phases fluid flow at nanoscale.We also clearly point out the current research gaps and future outlook.These insights will promote the significant development of nonlinear flow physics at nanoscale and will provide crucial guidance on the relevant areas.

Mechanism of Electromagnetic Flow Control Enhanced by Electro-Discharge in Water

Pulsed discharge utilized to achieve large current density in the electromagnetic flow control is numerically studied. A mathematic discharge model is established to calculate the plasma channel, and an actuator is designed to generate the Lorentz force in the micro plasma channel. During the discharge process, the resistance in the channel decreases rapidly and a large current density appears between the discharge electrodes. After the actuator is applied in the leading edge of a flat plate, the separation region and downstream turbulent boundary layer on the plate disappear. Meanwhile, a skin-friction drag force reduction is achieved.

Flow Loss Mechanism in a Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Centrifugal Compressor at Low Flow Rate Conditions

With the advantages of high efficiency and compact structure,supercritical carbon dioxide(sC02)Brayton cycles have bright prospects for development in energy conversion field.As one of the core components of the power cycle,the centrifugal compressor tends to operate near the critical point(304.13 K,7.3773 MPa).Normally,the compressor efficiency increases as the inlet temperature decreases.When the inlet temperature is close to the critical point,the density increases sharply as the temperature decreases,which results in quickly decreasing of volume flow rate and efficiency reducing.The flow loss mechanism of the sCO_(2) compressor operating at low flow rate is studied in this paper.Computational fluid dynamics(CFD) simulations for sCO_(2)compressor were carried out at various inlet temperatures and various mass flow rates.When the sCO_(2)compressor operates at low volume flow rate,the flow loss is generated mainly on the suction side near the trailing edge of the blade.The flow loss is related to the counterclockwise vortexes generated on the suction side of the main blade.The vortexes are caused by the flow separation in the downstream region of the impeller passage,which is different from air compressors operating at low flow rates.The reason for this flow separation is that the effect of Coriolis force is especially severe for the sCO_(2) fluid,compared to the viscous force and inertial force.At lower flow rates,with the stronger effect of Coriolis force,the direction of relative flow velocity deviates from the direction of radius,resulting in its lower radial component.The lower radial relative flow velocity leads to severe flow separation on the suction side near the trailing edge of the main blade.

Research on the Aerodynamic Characteristics of Leading Edge and Bulge of Ram-Air Parafoil Based on CFD

This study focuses on the aerodynamic characteristics and flow mechanism of three different configurations of ram-air parafoil with open/closed air inlet and bulges. Firstly, we designed a special parafoil configuration for this study. Then we used numerical simulation to obtain the aerodynamic data of three parafoils at different angles of attack, and studied the influence of the bulge and the leading edge open/closed inlet on the aerodynamic performance of the ram-air parafoil. Finally, we study the flow mechanism of the ram-air parafoil through the pressure distribution and flow field. The results of the study show that compared with the aerodynamic parameters of the parafoil without bulges, the optimal angle of attack of the two parafoils with bulges is increased by 4?, the maximum lift to drag ratio of the parafoil with closed leading edge is reduced by about 4.3% and the optimal angle of attack is reduced by about 2?. The maximum lift to drag ratio of the parafoil with open leading edge is reduced by about 23.6% and the stalling angle of attack is reduced by about 4?. The pressure on the surface of a ram-air parafoil with open leading edge inlet is the highest. .

Surrogate-based modeling and dimension reduction techniques for multi-scale mechanics problems

Successful modeling and/or design of engineering systems often requires one to address the impact of multiple ＂design variables＂ on the prescribed outcome.There are often multiple,competing objectives based on which we assess the outcome of optimization.Since accurate,high fidelity models are typically time consuming and computationally expensive,comprehensive evaluations can be conducted only if an efficient framework is available.Furthermore,informed decisions of the model/hardware＇s overall performance rely on an adequate understanding of the global,not local,sensitivity of the individual design variables on the objectives.The surrogate-based approach,which involves approximating the objectives as continuous functions of design variables from limited data,offers a rational framework to reduce the number of important input variables,i.e.,the dimension of a design or modeling space.In this paper,we review the fundamental issues that arise in surrogate-based analysis and optimization,highlighting concepts,methods,techniques,as well as modeling implications for mechanics problems.To aid the discussions of the issues involved,we summarize recent efforts in investigating cryogenic cavitating flows,active flow control based on dielectric barrier discharge concepts,and lithium（Li）-ion batteries.It is also stressed that many multi-scale mechanics problems can naturally benefit from the surrogate approach for ＂scale bridging.＂

SIMULATION AND APPLICATION OF THREE_DIMENSIONAL MIGRATION_ACCUMULATION OF OIL RESOURCES

Numerical simulation of oil migration and accumulation is to describe the history of oil migration and accumulation in basin evolution. It is of great value in the exploration of oil resources and their rational evaluation. In this paper, from such actual conditions as the effects of mechanics of fluids in porous media and 3-dimensional geology characteristics, a kind of modified method of second order splitting-up implicit interactive scheme is pur forward. For the famous hydraulic experiment of secondary migration-accumulation, the numerical simulation test has been done, and both the computational and experimental results are basically identical. For the actual problem of Dongying hollow of Shengli Petroleum Oil Field, the numerical simulation test and the actual conditions are basically coincident. Thus the well-known problem has been solved.

A growth kinetics model of rate decomposition for Si_(1-x)Ge_x alloy based on dimer theory

According to the dimer theory on semiconductor surface and chemical vapor deposition(CVD) growth characteristics of Si1-xGex, two mechanisms of rate decomposition and discrete flow density are proposed. Based on these two mechanisms, the Grove theory and Fick's first law, a CVD growth kinetics model of Si1-xGex alloy is established. In order to make the model more accurate, two growth control mechanisms of vapor transport and surface reaction are taken into account. The paper also considers the influence of the dimer structure on the growth rate. The results show that the model calculated value is consistent with the experimental values at different temperatures.

Fast determination of meso-level mechanical parameters of PFC models

To solve the problems of blindness and inefficiency existing in the determination of meso-level mechanical parameters of particle flow code (PFC) models, we firstly designed and numerically carried out orthogonal tests on rock samples to investigate the correlations between macro-and meso-level mechanical parameters of rock-like bonded granular materials. Then based on the artificial intelligent technology, the intelligent prediction systems for nine meso-level mechanical parameters of PFC models were obtained by creating, training and testing the prediction models with the set of data got from the orthogonal tests. Lastly the prediction systems were used to predict the meso-level mechanical parameters of one kind of sandy mudstone, and according to the predicted results the macroscopic properties of the rock were obtained by numerical tests. The maximum relative error between the numerical test results and real rock properties is 3.28% which satisfies the precision requirement in engineering. It shows that this paper provides a fast and accurate method for the determination of meso-level mechanical parameters of PFC models.

Effects of relaxation time on start-up time for starting flow of Maxwell fluid in a pipe

Although the analytical solution of the starting flow of Maxwell fluid in a pipe has been derived for a long time, the effect of relaxation time λ on start-up time ts of this flow is still not well understood. Especially, there exist a series of jumps on the ts-λ. curve. In this paper we introduce a normalized mechanical energy by mode decomposition and mathematical analogy to describe the start-up process. An improved definition of start-up time is presented based on the normalized mechanical energy. It is proved that the ts-λ. curve contains a series of jumps if λ is larger than a critical value. The exact positions of the jumps are determined and the physical reason of the jumps is discussed.

On the basis of these results, possible ways of reducing the vibrational power flow in the structures are suggested .

Dual-Porosity Apparent Permeability Models of Unconventional Gas Migration Based on Biot’s Porous Media

Stress-dependent permeability models are developed for the organic pores and inorganic cleats/fractures in unconventional gas reservoirs,which are modeled as Biot’s porous media of dual-porosity.Further considering multiple flow mechanisms such as dynamic effects of gas flow and surface diffusion,apparent permeability models are obtained to investigate the characteristics of unconventional gas migration.Compared to the gas transfer in single-porosity reservoirs,the gas migration ability of cleats in dual-porosity stratums rarely changes while that of organic pores is greatly improved because cleats sustain major geomechanical shrinkage deformation when the pore pressure drops.Further,the mass flux of reservoirs is dominated by the mass flux of cleats,which has a lower peak value,but a much longer production term than those in single-porosity reservoirs due to the interaction between organic pores and cleats.Parametric analysis is conducted to identify key factors significantly impacting mass flux in unconventional reservoirs.Reasons for the mass flux variation are also explored in terms of gas migration ability and pore pressure distribution.

Large eddy simulation of flow over a three-dimensional hill with different slope angles

Slope variation will significantly affect the characteristics of the wind field around a hill.This paper conducts a large-eddy simulation(LES)on an ideal 3D hill to study the impact of slope on wind field properties.Eight slopes ranging from 10°to 45°at 5°intervals are considered,which covers most conventional hill slopes.The inflow turbulence for the LES is generated by adopting a modified generation method that combines the equilibrium boundary conditions with the Fluent inherent vortex method to improve the simulation accuracy.The time-averaged flow field and the instantaneous vortex structure under the eight slopes are comparatively analyzed.The accuracy of the present method is verified by comparison with experimental data.The slope can affect both the mean and fluctuating wind flow fields around the 3D hill,especially on the hilltop and the leeward side,where a critical slope of 25°can be observed.The fluctuating wind speeds at the tops of steep hills(with slope angles beyond 25°)decrease with increasing slope,while the opposite phenomenon occurs on gentle hills.With increasing slope,the energy of the high-speed descending airflow is enhanced and pushes the separated flow closer to the hill surface,resulting in increased wind speed near the wall boundary on the leeward side and inhibiting the development of turbulence.The vortex shedding trajectory in the wake region becomes wider and longer,suppressing the growth of the mean wind near the wall boundary and enhancing the turbulence intensity.

INTERNAL FLOW MECHANISM AND EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH OF LOW PRESSURE AXIAL FAN WITH FORWARD-SKEWED BLADES

This article presents the flow mechanism analysis and experimental study of a forward-skewed impeller and a radial impeller in low pressure axial fan. The forward-skewed blade was obtained by the optimization design of the radial blade and CFD technique. Measurement of the two blades was carried out in aerodynamic and aeroacoustic performance. Compared to the radial blade, the forward-skewed blade has demonstrated the improvements in efficiency, total pressure ratio, Stable Operating Range （SOR） and less aerodynamic noise. Detailed flow measurement and computation were performed for outlet flow field for investigating the responsible flow mechanisms. The results show the forward-skewed blade can cause a spanwise redistribution of flow toward the blade mid-span and reduce tip loading. This results in reduced significantly total pressure loss near hub and shroud endwall region, despite the slight increase of total pressure loss at mid-span.

Numerical investigation of flow mechanisms of tandem impeller inside a centrifugal compressor

This study numerically investigated a single stage centrifugal compressor "Radiver" with a wedge diffuser and several tandem-designed impellers to explore the flow phenomena within the tandem impeller and the potential to enhance compressor performance.The results demonstrate that tandem design and clocking fraction(ks)significantly affects the compressor performance.The compressor stage with tandem impellers of Series A of boundary layer growth interruption alone are observed to have a widely operating range but efficiency and total pressure ratio penalty compared with that of conventional impeller.The tandem impeller with at least the same impeller efficiency as the conventional design is considered as a critical design criteria so that further modification process based on the flow characteristic of tandem impeller is necessary.In order to restrain the inducer wake and exducer shock losses,parameters modification of blade angle and thickness distributions are necessary and the modified tandem impeller of Series B is obtained.The modified tandem impeller with 25%clocking arrangement shows an 8.45%stall margin increase and maintains the total pressure ratio and efficiency as the conventional design,which proves the potential of tandem impeller to improve compressor stage performance.It is noteworthy that the tandem impellers of Radiver have not shown obviously balanced exit flow field and the fundamental mechanism of stall margin extending of tandem impeller lies on the improved impeller/diffuser matching performance resulting from the incidence angle variation at diffuser inlet.

MECHANISM OF WALL PRESSURE FLUCTUATIONS BENEATH THE OPEN CHANNEL FLOW

Based on the measured results that wall pressure fluctuations are mainly de- cided by coherent structures of turbulence, the relationship between root-mean- square wall pressure and wall shear stress in turbulent shear flow and that between the intensities of pressure and fluctuating velocity in homogeneous and isotropic turbulence are established in this paper. These relationships are consistent with former works, and have good agreement with experimental data. The paper also dis- cusses the concept of 'apparent pressure' on the wall in mean flow.

ON THE STRUCTURE AND MOVEMENT MECHANISM OF FLOW WITH HYPERCONCENTRATION OF SEDIMENT

This paper, based on the information obtained from flume experiments and field observations, concerns with the analyses of the flow with hyperconcentration of sediment containing a certain amount of fine particles. Attention is focused on the classification of flow with hyperconcentration of sediment, the properties of the Bingham shear stress τB and rigidity coefficient η, the movement mechanism of fluid within flow-core and non-flow-core regions, the shear stress distribution and so on. Several formulae have been proposed to indicate vertical velocity distribution of 2-dimensional steady and uniform turbulent flow with hyperconcentration of fluid. The formulae can be applied either to the flow of the Bingham fluid or to that of the Newtonian fluid.

Strong interactions of incident shock wave with boundary layer along compression corner

The coherent structure and instability of the interaction of incident shock wave with boundary layer developing on a compression corner are experimentally studied.The experiments are carried out in a supersonic wind tunnel of Mach number 2.Particular attention is paid to shock patterns and unsteady shock motions induced by the separation bubble.The high-speed schlieren is used to visualize the flowfield evolution and to characterize the instability.The snapshot proper orthogonal decomposition of schlieren sequences is applied to investigate the primary coherent structure in the flowfield.Fast Fourier transform and continuous wavelet transformation are applied to characterize the instability.The results show that there are large-scale low-frequency oscillations of the shock waves and small-scale high-frequency pulsations in the separation region.The peak frequency of shock oscillation is mainly concentrated in the range of 100–1000 Hz.The pulsation of the small flow structure in the separation bubble is mainly concentrated above 12.5 k Hz.Based on the results of experimental analysis,the preliminary mechanism of the largescale instability of such interaction is obtained.

Vortex structures of dynamic pure yaw test using DDES approach and vortex identification method

Considered as the building blocks,vortex structures with variety of sizes and intensity are widely recognized in the viscous flow field around ship.In this paper,the computational fluid dynamics(CFD)solver,naoe-FOAM-SJTU,coupled with delayed detached-eddy simulation(DDES)is adopted to analyze the vortex structures around the benchmark model Yupeng Ship in dynamic pure yaw tests,which are captured by third generation of vortex identification method.The good agreement of the predicted force/moment by DDES method with the experimental data indicates that the present numerical schemes are reliable and robust.Three vortex identification methods,Q-criteria,Ω_(R) and Liutex,are used to capture the vortex structures around the hull.The large separated flow is able to be investigated by these three methods,in which more vortex structures are captured byΩ_(R) approach and Liutex method with scalar,vector and tensor form seems to be more suitable for analyzing the flow mechanism around the hull in dynamic pure yaw test.In general,each vortex structure corresponds to a dominant positive/negative axial Liutex and a bound vortex pair.The streamlines are spiral in the large separated flow,indicating that the flow in corresponding region is rotational.But the rotation of the flow is not directly related to the intensity of Liutex.
