Book Analysis of Two phase Flows Under Microgravity  spatial  Conditions Using OpenFOAM

Download or read book Analysis of Two phase Flows Under Microgravity spatial Conditions Using OpenFOAM written by Carlos Moreno Tavira and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two-phase flows have gained importance over the last years due to their multiple and useful applications in space systems. For example, two-phase flows are used in fuel cells micro-channel networks, in the fluid management of Environmental Control and Life Support Systems (ECLSS) or in thermal management systems. However, many problems regarding two-phase flows in microgravity conditions are still open, so further research is needed. In this study, numerical simulations of gas-liquid two-phase flow are performed in a T-junction capillary. Bubbles are formed as a consequence of the interaction between air and water. The geometry used is the same as in [1, 2, 3] in order to make reliable comparisons with the results extracted from the laboratory experiments performed in the mentioned literature. OpenFOAM is used as the main software for the simulations, and ParaView and MATLAB are used to post-process the data. InterFoam is selected as the solver since it uses an incompressible, immiscible and isothermal Volume of Fluid (VOF) method. Some validations were made before setting up the definitive cases of the simulations. These validations were related to the adequate capillary length in order to obtain fully-developed flows, to the appropriate mesh quality to get good results and maintain an acceptable computational complexity, to the optimal contact angle value to get close to reality bubble behavior in terms of adherence to the walls, and to the right location of the sampling surfaces responsible for extracting the data. An analysis of the fluid velocity profiles along both of the capillaries of the T-junction was also made. Bubbles are analyzed in terms of their generating frequency, volume, length and velocity. Bubble volume dispersion is quantified using the polydispersity index. A pressure probe is used to measure the gauge pressure at the very center of the T-junction. Visual comparisons are made between simulation bubbles and experimental bubbles. In the end, the results of the simulations qualitatively fitted the experimental data, validating Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) as an alternative and correct tool to perform two-phase flow studies under microgravity conditions.

Book Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences

Download or read book Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences written by Wade H. Shafer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and disseminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS)* at Purdue University in 1957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dis semination phases of the activity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the though that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all concerned if the printing and distribution of the volumes were handled by an international publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemi nation. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Corporation of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 37 (thesis year 1992) a total of 12,549 thesis titles from 25 Canadian and 153 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for these titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this impor tant annual reference work. While Volume 37 reports theses submitted in 1992, on occasion, certain uni versities do report theses submitted in previous years but not reported at the time.

Book Modelling and Experimentation in Two Phase Flow

Download or read book Modelling and Experimentation in Two Phase Flow written by Volfango Bertola and published by CISM International Centre for Mechanical Sciences. This book was released on 2003 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an up-to-date review of recent advances in the study of two-phase flows, with focus on gas-liquid flows, liquid-liquid flows, and particle transport in turbulent flows. The book is divided into several chapters, which after introducing basic concepts lead the reader through a more complex treatment of the subjects. The reader will find an extensive review of both the older and the more recent literature, with abundance of formulas, correlations, graphs and tables. A comprehensive (though non exhaustive) list of bibliographic references is provided at the end of each chapter. The volume is especially indicated for researchers who would like to carry out experimental, theoretical or computational work on two-phase flows, as well as for professionals who wish to learn more about this topic.

Book Annular Two Phase Flow

Download or read book Annular Two Phase Flow written by Geoffrey Hewitt and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Annular Two-Phase Flow presents the wide range of industrial applications of annular two-phase flow regimes. This book discusses the fluid dynamics and heat transfer aspects of the flow pattern. Organized into 12 chapters, this book begins with an overview of the classification of the various types of interface distribution observed in practice. This text then examines the various regimes of two-phase flow with emphasis on the regions of occurrence of the annular flow regime. Other chapters consider the single momentum and energy balances, which illustrate the differences and analogies between single- and two-phase flows. This book discusses as well the simple modes for annular flow with consideration to the calculation of the profile of shear stress in the liquid film. The final chapter deals with the techniques that are developed for the measurement of flow pattern, entrainment, and film thickness. This book is a valuable resource for chemical engineers.
