Book Flow of Particulate Suspensions Through Constrictions

Download or read book Flow of Particulate Suspensions Through Constrictions written by Somnath Mondal and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Particle-laden flows occur in a variety of natural and industrial situations. As particulate suspensions flow through a medium, particles are often retained at constrictions such as pore throats, outlets or orifices. This occurs not only with oversized particles, but also with particles smaller than the constriction. For instance, jams are caused by the formation of particle bridges/arches when several particles attempt to flow through a constriction simultaneously. In many instances the success of an operation depends on our ability to either ensure or stop the flow of particles in the flow stream. Managing the flow of sand into wellbores during hydrocarbon production from poorly consolidated sandstone reservoirs, also referred to as sand control, is one such application in the oil and gas industry. This dissertation presents a multi-pronged effort at modeling the flow of granular suspensions of different concentrations, and through pore openings of different shapes, with two main objectives: (1) predicting the mass and size-distribution of the particles that are produced before jamming, and (2) investigating the underlying factors that influence the onset and stability of particle arches. Since, the dominant interactions and retention mechanisms are concentration dependent, we divided particulate suspensions into three groups based on the volumetric particle concentration ([phi]). High-concentration suspension flows ([phi]>~50%) are dominated by particle-particle interactions. We modeled polydisperse sand packs flowing through screens with rectangular and woven-square openings using 3D discrete element method (DEM). Simulations were validated against experimental data for a wide range of screen opening and sand size distributions. From the experiments and DEM simulations, a new scaling relation is identified, in which the number of different sized particles produced before retention follows a power-law correlation with the particle-to-outlet size ratio. This correlation is explained with a simple probabilistic model of bridging in polydisperse systems and a particle-size dependent jamming probability calculated from experimental data. A new method is presented to estimate the mass and size distribution of the produced solids through screens. The method uses the entire particle size distribution (PSD) of the formation sand, is validated with experimental data and numerical simulations, and provides more quantitative and accurate predictions of screen performance compared to past methods. It is also found that the stability of particle arches is compromised when adjacent outlets are less than three particle diameters away from each other. Low-concentration suspension flows ([phi]

Book Dynamics of Bubbles  Drops and Rigid Particles

Download or read book Dynamics of Bubbles Drops and Rigid Particles written by Z. Zapryanov and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 527 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 1. Objective and Scope Bubbles, drops and rigid particles occur everywhere in life, from valuable industrial operations like gas-liquid contracting, fluidized beds and extraction to such vital natural processes as fermentation, evaporation, and sedimentation. As we become increasingly aware of their fundamental role in industrial and biological systems, we are driven to know more about these fascinating particles. It is no surprise, therefore, that their practical and theoretical implications have aroused great interest among the scientific community and have inspired a growing number of studies and publications. Over the past ten years advances in the field of small Reynolds numbers flows and their technological and biological applications have given rise to several definitive monographs and textbooks in the area. In addition, the past three decades have witnessed enormous progress in describing quantitatively the behaviour of these particles. However, to the best of our knowledge, there are still no available books that reflect such achievements in the areas of bubble and drop deformation, hydrodynamic interactions of deformable fluid particles at low and moderate Reynolds numbers and hydrodynamic interactions of particles in oscillatory flows. Indeed, only one more book is dedicated entirely to the behaviour of bubbles, drops and rigid particles ["Bubbles, Drops and Particles" by Clift et al. (1978)] and the authors state its limitations clearly in the preface: "We treat only phenomena in which particle-particle interactions are of negligible importance. Hence, direct application of the book is limited to single-particle systems of dilute suspensions.

Book Suspensions of Colloidal Particles and Aggregates

Download or read book Suspensions of Colloidal Particles and Aggregates written by Frank Babick and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-04 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses the properties of particles in colloidal suspensions. It has a focus on particle aggregates and the dependency of their physical behaviour on morphological parameters. For this purpose, relevant theories and methodological tools are reviewed and applied to selected examples. The book is divided into four main chapters. The first of them introduces important measurement techniques for the determination of particle size and interfacial properties in colloidal suspensions. A further chapter is devoted to the physico-chemical properties of colloidal particles—highlighting the interfacial phenomena and the corresponding interactions between particles. The book’s central chapter examines the structure-property relations of colloidal aggregates. This comprises concepts to quantify size and structure of aggregates, models and numerical tools for calculating the (light) scattering and hydrodynamic properties of aggregates, and a discussion on van-der-Waals and double layer interactions between aggregates. It is illustrated how such knowledge may significantly enhance the characterisation of colloidal suspensions. The final part of the book refers to the information, ideas and concepts already presented in order to address technical aspects of the preparation of colloidal suspensions—in particular the performance of relevant dispersion techniques and the stability of colloidal suspensions.

Book Wall Effects in Shear Flowing Suspensions

Download or read book Wall Effects in Shear Flowing Suspensions written by and published by Cuvillier Verlag. This book was released on 2006-11-20 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In many industrial processes the flow behaviour of liquids plays an important role. The macroscopic flow properties as volume flux and pressure loss are determined by the local structure of the flowing substance and production efficiency, optimization processes, security, ecological aspects or quality management might be affected extremely. Within the production of many materials suspensions are involved. The filler material affects the properties of the material that for instance may be paints and varnish, ceramics, pastes and slurries, paper, certain foodstuffs or cosmetics. Also non-industrial fields as medical science (blood circuits) and phenomena in nature like dunes formed by sedimentation are connected with the streaming of a particle-laden fluid. In the shear flow of a suspension hydrodynamic particle-particle interactions lead to stochastic particle movements and the so-called hydrodynamic diffusion takes place. A demixing might be generated if a systematic particle migration orthogonal to the flow direction is induced by gradients of the interaction frequency and of the resistance force to transverse particle movement. These phenomena were investigated experimentally and analyzed theoretically (for instance by Happel and Brenner [12]). A gradient of resistance also affects the particle drift. Such a gradient originates in the vicinity of solid boundary walls or a viscosity gradient. Near the wall the resistance coefficient regarding particle movements orthogonal to the wall is increased. An enhanced relative viscosity coming along for instance with an increased particle concentration also leads to an increased resistance coefficient. A laminar tube flow of a suspension at steady state develops a boundary layer at the wall with a low particle concentration leading to the phenomenon of pseudo wall slip resulting in a decreased pressure difference related to a constant particle flux. Due to inhomogenity the local shear rates, velocities and particle concentrations vary causing differing residence times in the tube and different degrees of mechanical strain.
