Entwicklung und Validierung von Modellen für Blasenkoaleszenz und -zerfall

Liao, Y., Lucas, D. 22 May 2013 (has links) (PDF)
Ein neues, verallgemeinertes Modell für Blasenkoaleszenz und –zerfall wurde entwickelt. Es basiert auf physikalischen Überlegungen und berücksichtigt verschiedene Mechanismen, die zu Blasenkoaleszenz und –zerfall führen können. In einer ausführlichen Literaturrecherche wurden zunächst die verfügbaren Modelle zusammengestellt und analysiert. Es zeigte sich, dass viele widersprüchliche Modelle veröffentlicht wurden. Keins dieser Modelle erlaubt die Vorhersage der Entwicklung der Blasengrößenverteilungen entlang einer Rohrströmung für einen breiten Bereich an Kombinationen von Volumenströmen der Gas- und der Flüssigphase. Das neue Modell wurde ausführlich in einem vereinfachten Testsolver untersucht. Dieser erfasst zwar nicht alle Einzelheiten einer sich entlang des Rohres entwickelten Strömungen, erlaubt aber im Gegensatz zu den CFD-Simulationen eine Vielzahl von Variationsrechnungen zur Untersuchung des Einflusses einzelner Größen und Modelle. Koaleszenz und Zerfall kann nicht getrennt von anderen Phänomenen und Modellen, die diese widerspiegeln, betrachtet werden. Es bestehen enge Wechselwirkungen mit der Turbulenz der Flüssigphase und dem Impulsaustausch zwischen den Phasen. Da die Dissipationsrate der turbulenten kinetischen Energie ein direkter Eingangsparameter für das neue Modell ist, wurde die Turbulenzmodellierung besonders genau untersucht. Zur Validierung des Modells wurde eine TOPFLOW-Experimentalserie zur Luft-Wasser-Strömungen in einem 8 m langen DN200-Rohr genutzt. Die Daten zeichnen sich durch eine hohe Qualität aus und wurden im Rahmen des TOPFLOW-IIVorhabens mit dem Ziel eine Grundlage für die hier vorgestellten Arbeiten zu liefern, gewonnen. Die Vorhersage der Entwicklung der Blasengrößenverteilung entlang des Rohrs konnte im Vergleich zu den bisherigen Standardmodellen für Blasenkoaleszenz und -zerfall in CFX deutlich verbessert werden. Einige quantitative Abweichungen bleiben aber bestehen. Die vollständigen Modellgleichungen sowie eine Implementierung über „User-FORTRAN“ in CFX stehen zur Verfügung und können für weitere Arbeiten zur Simulation polydisperser Blasenströmungen genutzt werden.

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations of dilute fluid-particle flows in aerosol concentrators

Hari, Sridhar 17 February 2005 (has links)
In this study, commercially available Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software, CFX-4.4 has been used for the simulations of aerosol transport through various aerosol-sampling devices. Aerosol transport was modeled as a classical dilute and dispersed two-phase flow problem. Eulerian-Lagrangian framework was adopted wherein the fluid was treated as the continuous phase and aerosol as the dispersed phase, with a one-way coupling between the phases. Initially, performance of the particle transport algorithm implemented in the code was validated against available experimental and numerical data in the literature. Code predictions were found to be in good agreement against experimental data and previous numerical predictions. As a next step, the code was used as a tool to optimize the performance of a virtual impactor prototype. Suggestions on critical geometrical details available in the literature, for a virtual impactor, were numerically investigated on the prototype and the optimum set of parameters was determined. Performance curves were generated for the optimized design at various operating conditions. A computational model of the Linear Slot Virtual Impactor (LSVI) fabricated based on the optimization study, was constructed using the worst-case values of the measured geometrical parameters, with offsets in the horizontal and vertical planes. Simulations were performed on this model for the LSVI operating conditions. Behavior of various sized particles inside the impactor was illustrated with the corresponding particle tracks. Fair agreement was obtained between code predictions and experimental results. Important information on the virtual impactor performance, not known earlier, or, not reported in the literature in the past, obtained from this study, is presented. In the final part of this study, simulations on aerosol deposition in turbulent pipe flow were performed. Code predictions were found to be completely uncorrelated to experimental data. The discrepancy was traced to the performance of the code's turbulent dispersion model. A detailed literature survey revealed the inherent technical deficiencies in the model, even for particle dispersion. Based on the results of this study, it was determined that while the code can be used for simulating aerosol transport under laminar flow conditions, it is not capable of simulating aerosol transport under turbulent flow conditions.

Study of Forces and Dynamic Coefficients in Whirling and Eccentric Labyrinth Seals Using ANSYS-CFX

Thompson, Elizabeth Danielle 27 May 2009 (has links)
Labyrinth seal force estimates are important to the prediction of the stability of turbomachinery. The force prediction methods fall into several categories: experiments, bulk flow analysis, and finite volume analysis. Finite volume analysis can be split into two subcategories: self-developed and commercial. In this research, a commercial computational fluid dynamics (CFD) program called ANSYS-CFX was used to predict the forces generated in a labyrinth seal whirling at specified speeds. The results were compared to data from VT-FAST, a bulk flow code, and TASCflow, another commercial CFD program. It was shown that there were discrepancies among the results, and several hypotheses were made as to the reason for these discrepancies. Additionally, ANSYS-CFX was used to study the effect of labyrinth seal eccentricity ratio on the resultant force generated. It was shown that the radial force component within the seal behaved linearly with respect to eccentricity ratio. However, the tangential force component had no distinguishable relationship with the eccentricity ratio. It was hypothesized that the lack of a relationship was caused by the small fluctuations in the inlet swirl. Although the inlet swirl varied very little at each eccentricity ratio, it was shown there was a relationship between the tangential force and inlet swirl. / Master of Science

Holzverbrennung in Kaminöfen mit Keramikfilter - experimentelle Untersuchungen und mathematische Modellierung

Sénéchal, Ulf 31 March 2014 (has links) (PDF)
Zur Verringerung von Schadstoffemissionen werden in Kaminöfen oft Keramikfilter integriert, die Staub und Ruß aus dem Abgas entfernen sollen. Die Filter beeinflussen jedoch die strömungsmechanischen, energetischen und chemischen Vorgänge im Feuerraum. Für die Auslegung und die praktische Anwendung der Filter ist die Kenntnis der Einflussgrößen und deren Umfang nötig. Mit Hilfe von experimentellen und numerischen Untersuchungen wurden die Stoff- und Energietransportvorgänge von zwei Kaminöfen charakterisiert. Zur Bestimmung der Massenabnahme von Holzscheiten kam eine neue, praktisch leicht umsetzbare Methode, basierend auf einer Schockkühlung mit flüssigem Stickstoff, zum Einsatz. Parallel dazu wurde die Massenabnahme der Holzscheite mit Hilfe einer Online-Massenbestimmung mittels Waage aufgezeichnet und ein Verfahren zur Bestimmung der Abbrandkinetik entwickelt. Die Schwierigkeiten der messtechnischen Erfassung und Auswertung der instationären Vorgänge wurden dargestellt und diskutiert. Für die zwei Kaminöfen sind numerische Simulationen mit der Software ANSYS CFX erstellt worden, die weitgehend auf realen Geometrien beruhen. Vergleichende null- und eindimensionale Simulationen mit unterschiedlichen Reaktionsmechanismen und gasförmigen Brennstoffen wurden realisiert und hinsichtlich ihrer Eignung für die Berechnung von Kaminöfen untersucht. Nach erfolgter Validierung wurde ein parametrisches Simulationsmodell eines Kaminofens erstellt. Mit diesem wurde eine Parameterstudie zur Untersuchung der Veränderung der Zielgrößen Heizleistung, Kohlenmonoxid- und Rußkonzentration sowie Gesamt- und Sekundärluftmassenstrom in Abhängigkeit der Parameter durchgeführt.
