Download or read book Direct Numerical Simulations of Bubbles in Turbulent Flows with Heat Transfer written by Claudio Santarelli and published by Tudpress Verlag Der Wissenschaften Gmbh. This book was released on 2015-08-12 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bubbly flows are essential in many industrial and environmental applications and several methodologies have been employed to investigate the complex phenomena involved. In the present book Direct Numerical Simulations of bubble swarms in channel flow configuration are reported and several cases are presented. The focus is on the mutual interaction between fluid turbulence and bubble dynamics and the impact on the heat transfer in the two-phase mixture. This analysis concerns flow visualizations and quantitative statistical data regarding the fluid as well as the bubbles which can now be used as reference data for model developing and validation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book summarises the outcom of a priority research programme: 'Analysis, Modelling and Computation of Multiphase Flows'. The results of 24 individual research projects are presented. The main objective of the research programme was to provide a better understanding of the physical basis for multiphase gas-liquid flows as they are found in numerous chemical and biochemical reactors. The research comprises steady and unsteady multiphase flows in three frequently found reactor configurations, namely bubble columns without interiors, airlift loop reactors, and aerated stirred vessels. For this purpose new and improved measurement techniques were developed. From the resulting knowledge and data, new and refined models for describing the underlying physical processes were developed, which were used for the establishment and improvement of analytic as well as numerical methods for predicting multiphase reactors. Thereby, the development, lay-out and scale-up of such processes should be possible on a more reliable basis.

Book Direct Numerical Simulations of Gas   Liquid Multiphase Flows

Download or read book Direct Numerical Simulations of Gas Liquid Multiphase Flows written by Grétar Tryggvason and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2011-03-10 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Accurately predicting the behaviour of multiphase flows is a problem of immense industrial and scientific interest. Modern computers can now study the dynamics in great detail and these simulations yield unprecedented insight. This book provides a comprehensive introduction to direct numerical simulations of multiphase flows for researchers and graduate students. After a brief overview of the context and history the authors review the governing equations. A particular emphasis is placed on the 'one-fluid' formulation where a single set of equations is used to describe the entire flow field and interface terms are included as singularity distributions. Several applications are discussed, showing how direct numerical simulations have helped researchers advance both our understanding and our ability to make predictions. The final chapter gives an overview of recent studies of flows with relatively complex physics, such as mass transfer and chemical reactions, solidification and boiling, and includes extensive references to current work.

Book Shock Wave Boundary Layer Interactions

Download or read book Shock Wave Boundary Layer Interactions written by Holger Babinsky and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2011-09-12 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shock wave-boundary-layer interaction (SBLI) is a fundamental phenomenon in gas dynamics that is observed in many practical situations, ranging from transonic aircraft wings to hypersonic vehicles and engines. SBLIs have the potential to pose serious problems in a flowfield; hence they often prove to be a critical - or even design limiting - issue for many aerospace applications. This is the first book devoted solely to a comprehensive, state-of-the-art explanation of this phenomenon. It includes a description of the basic fluid mechanics of SBLIs plus contributions from leading international experts who share their insight into their physics and the impact they have in practical flow situations. This book is for practitioners and graduate students in aerodynamics who wish to familiarize themselves with all aspects of SBLI flows. It is a valuable resource for specialists because it compiles experimental, computational and theoretical knowledge in one place.

Book Micro bubble Dynamics in Turbulent Flow

Download or read book Micro bubble Dynamics in Turbulent Flow written by Zhentong Zhang (docteur en mécanique des fluides).) and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis is devoted to the study of the motion of small bubbles in homogeneous isotropic turbulent flows. The work addresses several questions related to the statistical description of the hydrodynamic forces exerted on a bubble as well as the stochastic modeling of their high frequency fluctuations. First, we propose a model for the acceleration of micro-bubbles (smaller than the dissipative scale of the flow) subjected to the drag and the fluid inertia forces. This model, that depends on the Stokes number, the Reynolds number and the density ratio, reproduces the evolution of the acceleration variance as well as the relative importance and alignment of the two forces as observed from Direct Numerical Simulations (DNS). Second, based on the observation that acceleration statistics conditional to the local kinetic energy dissipation rate are invariant with the Stokes number and the dissipation rate, we propose a stochastic model for the instantaneous bubble acceleration vector accounting for the small-scale intermittency of the turbulent flows. The norm of the bubble acceleration is obtained by modeling the dissipation rate along the bubble trajectory from a log-normal stochastic process, whereas its orientation is given by two coupled random walk on a unit sphere in order to model the evolution of the joint orientation of the drag and inertia forces acting on the bubble. Furthermore, the proposed stochastic model for the bubble acceleration is used in the context of large eddy simulations (LES) of turbulent flows laden with small bubbles. It can effectively reproduce effect of turbulent motion at scales smaller than the mesh resolution by adding a random contribution depending on local average dissipation rate. Comparisons with DNS and standard LES, show that the proposed model improves significantly the statistics of the bubbly phase. Third, we extend the previous results in the case of bubbles with large Reynolds number by considering non-linear drag laws. We define an effective relaxation time based on the drag coefficient to characterize bubble motion (acceleration,velocity). Eventually we study the effect of buoyancy and lift force on the bubble dynamics, and analyze the reduction of the average rising velocity in turbulent flow compared to quiescent flows. It is observed that bubbles preferentially explore region having downward fluid acceleration which contributes through the inertia force to reduction of the rising velocity. In addition, as already observed, the lift force brings preferably bubbles into downstream fluid motion which also reduce their rising velocity.

Book Particles  Bubbles And Drops  Their Motion  Heat And Mass Transfer

Download or read book Particles Bubbles And Drops Their Motion Heat And Mass Transfer written by Stathis Efstathios E Michaelides and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2006-04-24 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The field of multiphase flows has grown by leaps and bounds in the last thirty years and is now regarded as a major discipline. Engineering applications, products and processes with particles, bubbles and drops have consistently grown in number and importance. An increasing number of conferences, scientific fora and archived journals are dedicated to the dissemination of information on flow, heat and mass transfer of fluids with particles, bubbles and drops. Numerical computations and “thought experiments” have supplemented most physical experiments and a great deal of the product design and testing processes. The literature on computational fluid dynamics with particles, bubbles and drops has grown at an exponential rate, giving rise to new results, theories and better understanding of the transport processes with particles, bubbles and drops. This book captures and summarizes all these advances in a unified, succinct and pedagogical way.
