Modélisation de la purification de l'aluminium liquide par procédé de flottation en cuve agitée / Modelisation of liquid aluminium purification by flotation in stirred reactor

Mirgaux, Olivier 17 December 2007 (has links)
L’élimination des inclusions indésirables par flottation en cuve agitée est un procédé largement utilisé dans l’industrie de l’aluminium. Ce procédé consiste en l’injection de gaz au sein de la cuve par le biais d’un rotor ; les bulles ainsi formées captent, lors de leur ascension dans le métal liquide, les inclusions et les drainent en surface où elles sont éliminées mécaniquement.Dans le but de prédire l’évolution numérale de la population d’inclusions dans la cuve de flottation au cours du temps, un modèle 2D a été développé. Afin de rendre compte du transport convectif des inclusions au sein de l’écoulement diphasique métal liquide – bulles, des phénomènes de décantation, d’agglomération et de flottation, ce modèle couple la Mécanique des Fluides Numérique et la technique des Bilans de Population. Une attention particulière a été portée aux modèles d’agglomération et de flottation pour qu’ils soient applicables sur une grande plage de conditions de turbulence.Les simulations numériques réalisées, nous ont notamment permis de mettre en évidence l’importance de veiller à une bonne répartition des bulles dans la cuve, en particulier dans les zones de forte turbulence. En parallèle de ce travail de modélisation, une analyse de la littérature et des travaux expérimentaux sur métal liquide ont été réalisés, afin de mieux comprendre le rôle du chlore dans le procédé de flottation. Un effet de seuil a ainsi pu être mis en évidence : une certaine quantité de chlore injectée dans le métal est nécessaire pour que la flottation devienne efficace. La compréhension du rôle du chlore reste cependant partielle, mais des pistes de recherche prometteuses ont put être identifiées / Inclusions removal by flotation in mechanically agitated vessels is widely used in liquid aluminium treatments. This process consists of gas injection in a molten aluminium reactor using an impeller. Inclusions are attached to the bubbles while rising into the liquid bulk and released in the froth at the vessel surface.With the aim of both a better understanding of the physical processes acting during flotation and the optimization of the refining process, a 2D mathematical modelling of the flotation tank was set up. Transport phenomena, sedimentation, agglomeration and flotation of inclusions were considered here. The model couples Population Balance with convective transport of the inclusions, in the multiphase flow field. Simulations showed that a good dispersion of the bubbles into the tank, especially in the high turbulence zones, is essential for an efficient process. This situation was achieved with a strong agitation. Gas flow affected the process efficiency weakly.Theoretical and experimental studies on chlorine effects were done. It was noticed that a critical amount of chlorine into the melt is required for the flotation to be efficient. Complete understanding of chlorine role is not achieved yet, but promising ideas for future research have been exhibited

Um esquema upwind polinomial por partes para problemas em mecânica dos fluidos / A piecewise polynomial upwind scheme for problems in fluid mechanics

Sartori, Patrícia 20 April 2011 (has links)
Este trabalho de pesquisa é dedicado ao desenvolvimento, análise e implementação de um novo esquema upwind de alta resolução (denominada PFDPUS) para a aproximação de termos convectivos em leis de conservação e problemas relacionados em mecânica dos fluídos. Usando variáveis normalizadas de Leonard, o equema PFDPUS é baseado em uma função polinomial por partes que satisfaz os critérios de estabilidade CBC e TVD. O desempenho do esquema PEDPUS é investigado na solução das equações de advecção de escalares, Burgers, Euler e MHD. O novo esquema é então aplicado para simular escoamentos incompressíveis envolvendo superfícies livres móveis. Para tanto, o esquema PFDPUS é implementado dentro do software CLAWPACK para problemas compressíveis, e no código Freeflow para poblemas incompressíveis. Os resultados numéricos são comparados com dados experimentais, numéricos e analíticos / This work is dedicated to the development, analysis and implementation of a new high-resolution upwind scheme (called PFDPUS) for approximation of convective terms in conservation laws and related fluid mechanics problems. By using the normalized variables of Leonard, the PFDPUS scheme is based on a piecewise polynomical function that satisfies the CBC and TVD stability criteria. The performance of the PFDPUS scheme is assessed by solving advection of scalars, Burgers, Euler and MHD equations. Then the new scheme is applied to simulate incompressible flows involving moving free surfaces. The PFDPUS scheme is implemented into the CLAWPACK software for compressible problems, and in the Freeflow code for incompressible problems. The numerical results are compared with experimental, numerical and analytical data

Desenvolvimento e teste de esquemas \"upwind\" de alta resolução e suas  aplicações em escoamentos  incompressíveis com superfícies livres / Development and testing of high-resolution upwind schemes and their applications in incompressible free surface flows

Queiroz, Rafael Alves Bonfim de 18 March 2009 (has links)
Neste trabalho são apresentados os resultados do desenvolvimento e teste de esquemas upwind de alta resolução para o controle da difusão numérica em leis de conservação gerais e problemas em dinâmica dos fluidos. Em particular, são derivados dois novos esquemas: o ALUS (Adaptive Linear Upwind Scheme) e o TOPUS (Third-Order Polynomial Upwind Scheme). Esses esquemas são testados no transporte de escalares, em equações 1D tipo convecção-difusão, em sistemas hiperbólicos 1D, nas equações de Euler 2D da dinâmica dos gases e nas equações de Navier-Stokes incompressíveis 2D/3D. Os esquemas são então associados a uma modelagem algébrica não linear para a simulação de problemas de escoamentos incompressíveis turbulentos 2D com/sem superfícies livres / In this work, results of the development and testing of high-resolution upwind schemes for controlling of the numerical diffusion for general conservation laws and fluid dynamics problems are presented. In particular, two new high-resolution upwind schemes are derived, namely, the ALUS (Adaptive Linear Upwind Scheme) and the TOPUS (Third-Order Polynomial Upwind Scheme). These schemes are tested in scalar transport, 1D convection-diffusion equations, 1D hyperbolic systems, 2D Euler equations of the gas dynamics, and in 2D/3D incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. The schemes are then combined with a nonlinear Reynolds stress algebraic equation model for the simulation of 2D incompressible turbulent flows with/without free surfaces
