Book Investigation of Supersonic Gas Flows Into Nanochannels Using an Unstructured 3D Direct Simulation Monte Carlo Method

Download or read book Investigation of Supersonic Gas Flows Into Nanochannels Using an Unstructured 3D Direct Simulation Monte Carlo Method written by Wael G. Al-Kouz and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: This dissertation is devoted to the computational investigation of supersonic gas flows in rectangular nanochannels with scales between 100 nm and 1000 nm, using an unstructured three-dimensional Direct Simulation Monte Carlo (U3DSMC) methodology. This dissertation also contributes to the computational mathematics background of the U3DSMC method with validations and verifications at the micronscale and nanoscale, as well as with the investigation of the statistical fluctuations and errors associated with U3DSMC simulations at the nanoscale. The U3DSMC code is validated by comparisons with previous two dimensional DSMC simulations of flows in micron-scale rectangular channels. The simulation involves the supersonic flow of nitrogen into a microchannel with height of 1.2 m and width of 6 m. The free stream conditions correspond to a pressure of 72,450 Pa, Mach number, Knudsen number and mean free path nm. The U3DSMC centerline temperature, heat flux to the wall, and mean velocity as a function of the transverse direction are in very good agreement with previous 2D results. Statistical fluctuations and errors in U3DSMC have added significance in nanoscale domains because the number of real particles can be very small inside a computational cell. The effect of the number of samples, the number of computational particles in a Delaunay cell, and the Mach number on the fractional errors of density, velocity and temperature are investigated for uniform and pressure-driven nanoscale flows. The uniform nanoflow is implemented by applying a and free stream boundary condition with m-3, K, nm in a domain that requires resolution of a characteristic length scale nm. The pressure-driven flows consider a nanochannel of 500 nm height, 100 nm width and 4 m length. Subsonic boundary conditions are applied with inlet pressure 101,325 Pa and outlet pressure of 10132.5 Pa. The analysis shows that U3DSMC simulations at nanoscales featuring 10-30 particles per Delaunay cell result in statistical errors that are consistent with theoretical estimates. The rarefied flow of nitrogen with speed ratio of 2, 5, and 10, pressure of 10.132 kPa into rectangular nanochannels with height of 100, 500 and 1000 nm is investigated using U3DSMC. The investigation considers rarefaction effects with =0.481, 0.962, 4.81, geometric effects with nanochannel aspect ratios of (L/H) from AR=1, 10, 100 and back-pressure effects with imposed pressures from 0 to 200 kPa. The computational domain features a buffer region upstream of the inlet and the nanochannel walls are assumed to be diffusively reflecting at the free stream temperature of 273 K. The analysis is based on the phase space distributions as well as macroscopic flow variables sampled in cells along the centerline. The phase space distributions show the formation of a disturbance region ahead of the inlet due to slow particles backstreaming through the inlet and the formation of a density enhancement with its maximum inside the nanochannel. The velocity phase-space distributions show a low-speed particle population generated inside the nanochannel due to wall collisions which is superimposed with the free stream high-speed population. The mean velocity decreases, while the number density increases in the buffer region. The translational temperature increases in the buffer region and reaches its maximum near the inlet. For AR=10 and 100 nanochannels the gas reaches near equilibrium with the wall temperature. The heat transfer rate is largest near the inlet region where non-equilibrium effects are dominant. For =0.481, 0.962, 4.81, vacuum back pressure, and AR=1, the nanoflow is supersonic throughout the nanochannel, while for AR=10 and 100, the nanoflow is subsonic at the inlet and becomes sonic at the outlet. For =0.962, AR=1, and imposed back pressure of 120 kPa and 200 kPa, the nanoflow becomes subsonic at the outlet. For =0.962 and AR=10, the outlet pressure nearly matches the imposed back pressure with the nanoflow becoming sonic at 40 kPa and subsonic at 100 kPa. Heat transfer rates at the inlet and mass flow rates at the outlet are in good agreement with those obtained from theoretical free-molecular models. The flows in these nanochannels share qualitative characteristics found in microchannels ad well as continuum compressible flows in channels with friction and heat loss. The rarefied flow of nitrogen with speed ratio of 2, 5, 10, at an atmospheric pressure of 101.32 kPa into rectangular nanochannels with height of 100 and 500 nm is investigated using U3DSMC. The investigation considers rarefaction effects with =0.0962 and 4.81, geometric effects with nanochannel aspect ratios of (L/H) of AR=1 and 10 and vacuum back-pressure. Phase plots and sample-averaged macroscopic parameters are used in the analysis. Under vacuum back pressure the centerline velocity decreases in the buffer region from its free stream value. For 0.481, 0.0962 and AR=1 the Mach number is supersonic at the inlet and remains supersonic throughout the nanochannel. For 0.481, 0.0962 and AR=10, the flow becomes subsonic at the inlet and shows a sharp increase in pressure. The Mach number, subsequently, increases and reaches the sonic point at the outlet. For 0.481, 0.0962 and AR=1 the translational temperature reaches a maximum near the inlet and decreases monotonically up to the outlet. For 0.481, 0.0962 and AR=10, the translational temperature reaches a maximum near the inlet and then decreases to come in near equilibration with the wall temperature of 273 K.

Book Microscale Flow and Heat Transfer

Download or read book Microscale Flow and Heat Transfer written by Amit Agrawal and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-05-25 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers concepts and the latest developments on microscale flow and heat transfer phenomena involving a gas. The book is organised in two parts: the first part focuses on the fluid flow and heat transfer characteristics of gaseous slip flows. The second part presents modelling of such flows using higher-order continuum transport equations. The Navier-Stokes equations based solution is provided to various problems in the slip regime. Several interesting characteristics of slip flows along with useful empirical correlations are documented in the first part of the book. The examples bring out the failure of the conventional equations to adequately describe various phenomena at the microscale. Thereby the readers are introduced to higher order continuum transport (Burnett and Grad) equations, which can potentially overcome these limitations. A clear and easy to follow step by step derivation of the Burnett and Grad equations (superset of the Navier-Stokes equations) is provided in the second part of the book. Analytical solution of these equations, the latest developments in the field, along with scope for future work in this area are also brought out. Presents characteristics of flow in the slip and transition regimes for a clear understanding of microscale flow problems; Provides a derivation of Navier-Stokes equations from microscopic viewpoint; Features a clear and easy to follow step-by-step approach to derive Burnett and Grad equations; Describes a complete compilation of few known exact solutions of the Burnett and Grad equations, along with a discussion of the solution aided with plots; Introduces the variants of the Navier-Stokes, Burnett and Grad equations, including the recently proposed Onsager-Burnett and O13 moment equations.

Book Gas Flows in Microsystems

Download or read book Gas Flows in Microsystems written by Lucien Baldas and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2019-10-28 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last two decades have witnessed a rapid development of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) involving gas microflows in various technical fields. Gas microflows can, for example, be observed in microheat exchangers designed for chemical applications or for cooling of electronic components, in fluidic microactuators developed for active flow control purposes, in micronozzles used for the micropropulsion of nano and picosats, in microgas chromatographs, analyzers or separators, in vacuum generators and in Knudsen micropumps, as well as in some organs-on-a-chip, such as artificial lungs. These flows are rarefied due to the small MEMS dimensions, and the rarefaction can be increased by low-pressure conditions. The flows relate to the slip flow, transition or free molecular regimes and can involve monatomic or polyatomic gases and gas mixtures. Hydrodynamics and heat and mass transfer are strongly impacted by rarefaction effects, and temperature-driven microflows offer new opportunities for designing original MEMS for gas pumping or separation. Accordingly, this Special Issue seeks to showcase research papers, short communications, and review articles that focus on novel theoretical and numerical models or data, as well as on new experimental results and technics, for improving knowledge on heat and mass transfer in gas microflows. Papers dealing with the development of original gas MEMS are also welcome.
