Download or read book Oscillating Grid Turbulence and Its Influence on Gas Liquid Mass Transfer and Mixing in Non Newtonian Media written by Tom Lacassagne and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of turbulence induced mass transfer at the interface between a gas and a liquid is of great interest in many environmental phenomena and industrial processes. Even though this issue has already been studied for several decades, its understanding is still not good enough to create realistic models (RANS or sub-grid LES), especially when considering a liquid phase with a complex rheology. This experimental work aims at studying fundamental aspects of turbulent mass transfer at a flat interface between carbon dioxide and a Newtonian or non-Newtonian liquid, stirred by homogeneous and quasi isotropic turbulence. Non-Newtonian fluids studied are aqueous solutions of a model polymer, Xanthan gum (XG), at various concentrations, showing viscoelastic and shear-thinning properties. Optical techniques for the acquisition of the liquid phase velocity field (Stereoscopic Particle Image Velocimetry, SPIV) and dissolved gas concentration field (Inhibited Planar Laser Induced Fluorescence, I-PLIF) are for the first time coupled, keeping a high spatial resolution, to access velocity and concentration statistics in the first few millimetres under the interface. A new version of I-PLIF is developed. It is designed to be more efficient for near surface measurements, but its use can be generalized to other single or multiphase mass transfer situations. Bottom shear turbulence in the liquid phase is generated by an oscillating grid apparatus. The mechanisms of turbulence production and the characteristics of oscillating grid turbulence (OGT) are studied. The importance of the oscillatory component of turbulence is discussed. A mean flow enhancement effect upon polymer addition is evidenced. The mechanisms of turbulent mass transfer at a flat interface are finally observed in water and low concentration polymer solutions. A conditional analysis of turbulent mass fluxes allows to distinguish the type of events contributing to mass transfer and discuss their respective impact in water and polymer solutions.

Download or read book Homogeneous Turbulence Dynamics written by Pierre Sagaut and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-03-23 with total page 912 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides state-of-the-art results and theories in homogeneous turbulence, including anisotropy and compressibility effects with extension to quantum turbulence, magneto-hydodynamic turbulence and turbulence in non-newtonian fluids. Each chapter is devoted to a given type of interaction (strain, rotation, shear, etc.), and presents and compares experimental data, numerical results, analysis of the Reynolds stress budget equations and advanced multipoint spectral theories. The role of both linear and non-linear mechanisms is emphasized. The link between the statistical properties and the dynamics of coherent structures is also addressed. Despite its restriction to homogeneous turbulence, the book is of interest to all people working in turbulence, since the basic physical mechanisms which are present in all turbulent flows are explained. The reader will find a unified presentation of the results and a clear presentation of existing controversies. Special attention is given to bridge the results obtained in different research communities. Mathematical tools and advanced physical models are detailed in dedicated chapters.
Download or read book A Study of the Non Newtonian Turbulent Fluid Flow Through an Annulus written by Yogesh R. Parikh and published by . This book was released on 1965 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This investigation is concerned with the study of non-Newtonian flow through an annulus. The experimental analysis of incompressible non-Newtonian fluids in a long cylindrical annulus of radius ratio 0.375 was studied in the turbulent region. Different types of non-Newtonian fluids were used to procure flow behaviour for the annulus. The effect of increasing flow rate of the non-Newtonian fluids was evaluated by gathering pressure drop data across the annulus using a differential manometer. The power-law model is used in this study to characterize the non-Newtonian flow. The parameters of the power-law model were evaluated by gathering viscometric data on a rotational type viscometer. The non-Newtonian fluids used in this study were, solution of water with CMC-70, Natrosol, and Carbopole-934. All the experimental data were collected at room temperature"--Abstract, leaf ii.
Download or read book Turbulence in Fluids written by Marcel Lesieur and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 520 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Turbulence is a dangerous topic which is often at the origin of serious fights in the scientific meetings devoted to it since it represents extremely different points of view, all of which have in common their complexity, as well as an inability to solve the problem. It is even difficult to agree on what exactly is the problem to be solved. Extremely schematically, two opposing points of view have been ad vocated during these last twenty years: the first one is "statistical", and tries to model the evolution of averaged quantities of the flow. This com munity, which has followed the glorious trail of Taylor and Kolmogorov, believes in the phenomenology of cascades, and strongly disputes the possibility of any coherence or order associated to turbulence. On the other bank of the river stands the "coherence among chaos" community, which considers turbulence from a purely deterministic po int of view, by studying either the behaviour of dynamical systems, or the stability of flows in various situations. To this community are also associated the experimentalists who seek to identify coherent structures in shear flows.
Download or read book Cavitation in Non Newtonian Fluids written by Emil Brujan and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-09-28 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Non-Newtonian properties on bubble dynamics and cavitation are fundamentally different from those of Newtonian fluids. The most significant effect arises from the dramatic increase in viscosity of polymer solutions in an extensional flow, such as that generated about a spherical bubble during its growth or collapse phase. In addition, many biological fluids, such as blood, synovial fluid, and saliva, have non-Newtonian properties and can display significant viscoelastic behaviour. This monograph elucidates general aspects of bubble dynamics and cavitation in non-Newtonian fluids and applies them to the fields of biomedicine and bioengineering. In addition it presents many examples from the process industries. The field is strongly interdisciplinary and the numerous disciplines involve have and will continue to overlook and reinvent each others’ work. This book helps researchers to think intuitively about the diverse physics of these systems, to attempt to bridge the various communities involved, and to convey the interest, elegance, and variety of physical phenomena that manifest themselves on the micrometer and microsecond scales.
Download or read book Non Newtonian Turbulence written by Stefano Berti and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis presents a theoretical and numerical study of turbulence in non-Newtonian fluids. The dynamics of these systems can be modelled in terms of transported active fields and constitutes a subject of general interest in complex fluid's physics. Their peculiar rheological properties make them attractive also for engineering applications. The major part of the work concerns turbulence in dilute polymer solutions, i. e. viscoelastic fluids. Two issues are considered : the small-scale statistics at moderate values of elasticity in a fully developed turbulence regime ; the destabilization of a laminar flow by means of purely elastic non linearities. The effect of polymers on small-scale turbulence has been studied in a simplified viscoelastic fluid model, in a homogeneous isotropic configuration. The modifications on the turbulent cascade have been addressed, as well as their consequences on small-scale statistics. In the opposite limit of negligible inertial non linearities, polymeric degrees of freedom can destabilize a flow, when the elasticity of the solution is large enough. At growing elasticity, a transition to chaotic, and turbulent, states is observed. The experimental phenomenology has been numerically reproduced and statistical properties have been characterized. Another item considered is that of binary mixtures. Phase separation between two fluids has been investigated in presence of an externally forced velocity field. The competition between thermodynamic forces and local shears has been examined in both active and passive mixtures and the marginal role of Lagrangian chaos in the phenomenon of coarsening arrest has been highlighted.

Download or read book Turbulent Flow of Non Newtonian Fluids written by E. Reginald Van Driest and published by . This book was released on 1971 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The phenomenon of drag reduction in turbulent flow of solutions of fluids with long-chain molecules (polymers) is studied from the point of view that the effect is due solely to the non-newtonian variation of fluid shearing stress with strain, that is, variation of viscosity with strain. That the viscosity of the solvent is the essential physical property that controls the phenomenon is obtained from the direct effect of temperature. It is also shown that the commencement of turbulent friction reduction is essentially independent of the length of class of polymer, as well as concentration. (Author).
