[en] NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF TWOPHASE SLUG FLOW IN HORIZONTAL AND NEARLY HORIZONTAL PIPES / [pt] SIMULAÇÃO NUMÉRICA DE ESCOAMENTOS BIFÁSICOS NO REGIME DE GOLFADAS EM TUBULAÇÕES HORIZONTAIS E LEVEMENTE INCLINADASJOAO NEUENSCHWANDER ESCOSTEGUY CARNEIRO 25 April 2006 (has links)
[pt] Escoamentos bifásicos no regime de golfadas são
caracterizados pela
alternância de pacotes de líquido e grandes bolhas de gás
na tubulação, sendo
associados a altas perdas de carga, além de trazer uma
indesejada intermitência
aos escoamentos. O desenvolvimento do regime de golfadas
em tubulações
horizontais se dá a partir do escoamento estratificado em
decorrência de dois
fatores: do crescimento natural de pequenas perturbações
(por um mecanismo de
instabilidade do tipo Kelvin-Helmholtz) ou devido à
acumulação de líquido
causada por mudanças de inclinação no perfil do duto. O
presente trabalho
consiste da simulação numérica do surgimento das golfadas
em ambas as
situações descritas acima, assim como do subseqüente
desenvolvimento do
escoamento neste padrão para um regime estatisticamente
permanente. A
previsão do escoamento é obtida utilizando-se uma
formulação unidimensional
baseada no Modelo de Dois Fluidos. Parâmetros médios das
golfadas
(comprimento, velocidade e freqüência) são comparados com
estudos numéricos
e experimentais da literatura, obtendo-se uma concordância
bastante satisfatória,
especialmente dada a simplicidade de uma formulação
unidimensional. / [en] Slug flow is a two-phase flow pattern which is
characterized by the
periodic presence of packs of liquid and long bubbles in
the tube, associated with
high pressure-drops and an often undesired intermittency
in the system. The
development of the slug pattern in horizontal pipes is
caused by two reasons: the
natural growth of small disturbancies at the interface (by
a Kelvin-Helmholtz
instability mechanism) or the liquid accumulation at
valleys of hilly terrain
pipelines with sections of different inclinations. The
present work consists of the
numerical simulation of the onset of slugging in both
situations, as well as the
subsequent development of statistically steady slug flow
in the pipe. The
prediction of the flow is obtained through a one-
dimensional formulation based
on the Two-Fluid Model. Averaged slug parameters (length,
velocity and
frequency) are compared with previous numerical studies
and experimental
correlations avaiable in the literature, and a very
satisfactrory agreement is
obtained, specially given the simplicity of a one
dimensional formulation.

Thermally Developing Electro-Osmotic Convection in Circular MicrochannelsBroderick, Spencer L. 02 November 2004 (has links) (PDF)
Thermally developing, electro-osmotically generated flow has been analyzed for a circular microtube under imposed constant wall temperature (CWT) and constant wall heat flux (CHF) boundary conditions. Established by a voltage potential gradient along the length of the microtube, the hydrodynamics of such a flow dictate either a slug flow velocity profile (under conditions of large tube radius-to-Debye length ratio, a/lambda_d) or a family of electro-osmotic flow (EOF) velocity profiles that depend on a/lambda_d. The imposed voltage gradient results in Joule heating in the fluid with an associated volumetric source of energy. For this scenario coupled with a slug flow velocity profile, the analytical solution for the fluid temperature development has been determined for both thermal boundary conditions. The local Nusselt number for the CHF boundary condition is shown to reduce to the classical slug flow thermal development for imposed constant wall heat flux, and is independent of Joule heating source magnitude. For the CWT boundary condition, a local minimum in the streamwise variation in local Nusselt number for moderate positive dimensionless inlet temperature is predicted. For negative dimensionless inlet temperature, which arises if the fluid entrance temperature is below the tube wall temperature, the fluid is initially heated, then cooled, resulting in a singularity in the local Nusselt number at the axial location of the heating/cooling transition. The thermal development length is considerably larger than for traditional pressure-driven flow heat transfer, and is a function of the magnitudes of Peclet number and dimensionless inlet temperature. For the EOF velocity profile scenario, numerical techniques were used to predict the fluid temperature development for both wall boundary conditions by utilizing a finite control volume approach. In addition to Joule heating as an energy source, viscous dissipation is also considered. The results predict that for decreasing a/lambda_d, the local Nusselt number decreases for all axial positions and the thermal development shortens for both wall boundary conditions. Viscous dissipation has significant effect only at intermediate values of a/lambda_d. Results predict local Nusselt numbers to increase for a CWT boundary condition and to decrease for an imposed constant wall heat flux with increasing viscous dissipation.

Experimentelle Untersuchung von geschichteten Luft/Wasser Strömungen in einem horizontalen KanalSühnel, Tobias, Prasser, Horst-Michael, Vallée, Christophe 31 March 2010 (has links) (PDF)
Für die Untersuchung von Luft/Wasser-Strömungen wurde ein horizontaler Acrylglas-Kanal mit rechteckigem Querschnitt gebaut. Der Kanal ermöglicht Gleich- und Gegenstrom-Versuche bei Atmosphärendruck, insbesondere die Untersuchung der Schwallströmung. Es wurden optische Messungen mit einer Hochgeschwindigkeits-Kamera durchgeführt, die durch synchronisierte dynamische Druckmessungen ergänzt wurden. Für die Analyse der Bilder wurde eine Methode zur Erfassung der Phasengrenze entwickelt und diese anhand möglicher Anwendungen getestet. Die Druckmessungen zeigten, dass der Druck bei Schwallströmungen um einige Kilopascal ansteigt und wieder abfällt, sobald der Schwall aus dem Kanal austritt. Zudem wurden Geschwindigkeiten in der flüssigen Phase mittels nicht invasiver Verfahren gemessen. Das durchschnittliche Geschwindigkeits-Profil am Kanaleintritt wurde mit Ultraschall-Köpfen bestimmt. Die Ermittlung des Geschwindigkeitsfeldes in einem Schwall erfolgte mit PIV (Particle Image Velocimetry).

Heat transfer coefficients of particulate in tubular heat exchangersNguyen, Clayton Ma 21 September 2015 (has links)
This experimental study explores the heat transfer from heated bare and finned tubular surfaces to particulates in packed bed cross flow. The results from this experiment will be used to help select the type of particulates that will be used. Additionally, these results will assist in estimating heat transfer in prototype and commercial particle to fluid heat exchangers (PFHX).
This research is part of larger effort in the use of particulates in concentrating solar power technology. These solid particles are heated by concentrated sunlight to very high temperatures at which they are a suitable heat source for various thermal power and thermochemical cycles. Furthermore, one of the advantages of this concept is the ability to store thermal energy in the solid particles at relatively low cost. However, an important feature of any Particle Heat Receiver (PHR) system is the PFHX, which is the interface between the solar energy system and the thermal power or chemical system. In order to create this system material data is needed for the design and optimization of this PFHX.
The paper focuses on the heat transfer properties of particulates to solid surfaces under plug flow conditions. The particulates will be evaluated for three grain sizes of sand and two grain sizes of proppants. These two materials will be tested at one, five and ten millimeters per second in order to see how the various flow rates, which will be required for different loads, will affect the heat transfer coefficient. Finally the heat transfer coefficient will also be evaluated for both finned and non-finned heat exchangers to see the effect that changes in the surface geometry and surface area have on the heat transfer coefficient. The heat transfer coefficient will help determine the appropriate material that will be used in the PHR system.
