Book Experiments and Numerical Simulations of Diluted Spray Turbulent Combustion

Download or read book Experiments and Numerical Simulations of Diluted Spray Turbulent Combustion written by Bart Merci and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-06-20 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reflects the outcome of the 1st International Workshop on Turbulent Spray Combustion held in 2009 in Corsica (France). The focus is on reporting the progress of experimental and numerical techniques in two-phase flows, with emphasis on spray combustion. The motivation for studies in this area is that knowledge of the dominant phenomena and their interactions in such flow systems is essential for the development of predictive models and their use in combustor and gas turbine design. This necessitates the development of accurate experimental methods and numerical modelling techniques. The workshop aimed at providing an opportunity for experts and young researchers to present the state-of-the-art, discuss new developments or techniques and exchange ideas in the areas of experimentations, modelling and simulation of reactive multiphase flows. The first two papers reflect the contents of the invited lectures, given by experts in the field of turbulent spray combustion. The first concerns computational issues, while the second deals with experiments. These lectures initiated very interesting and interactive discussions among the researchers, further pursued in contributed poster presentations. Contributions 3 and 4 focus on some aspects of the impact of the interaction between fuel evaporation and combustion on spray combustion in the context of gas turbines, while the final article deals with the interaction between evaporation and turbulence.

Book Dispersion of Finite Size Droplets and Solid Particles in Isotropic Turbulence

Download or read book Dispersion of Finite Size Droplets and Solid Particles in Isotropic Turbulence written by Michele Rosso and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Turbulent disperse two-phase flows, of either fluid/fluid or fluid/solid type, are common in natural phenomena and engineering devices. Notable examples are atmospheric clouds, i.e. dispersed liquid water droplets and ice particles in a complex turbulent flow, and spray of fuel droplets in the combustion chamber of internal combustion engines. However, the physics of the interaction between a dispersed phase and turbulence is not yet fully understood. The objective of this study is to compare the dispersion of deformable finite size droplets with that of solid particles in a turbulent flow in the absence of gravity, by performing Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS). The droplets and the particles have the same diameter, of the order of the Taylor's microscale of turbulence, and the same density ratio to the carrier flow. The solid particle-laden turbulence is simulated by coupling a standard projection method with the Immersed Boundary Method (IBM). The solid particles are fully resolved in space and time without considering particle/particle collisions (two-way coupling). The liquid droplet-laden turbulence is simulated by coupling a variable-density projection method with the Accurate Conservative Level Set Method (ACLSM). The effect of the surface tension is accounted for by using the Ghost Fluid Method (GFM) in order to avoid any numerical smearing, while the discontinuities in the viscous term of the Navier-Stokes equation are smoothed out via the Continuum Surface Force approach. Droplet/droplet interactions are allowed (four-way coupling). The results presented here show that in isotropic turbulence the dispersion of liquid droplets in a given direction is larger than that of solid particles due to the reduced decay rate of turbulence kinetic energy via the four-way coupling effects of the droplets.

Book Study of Turbulence Modulation by Finite size Solid Particles with the Lattice Boltzmann Method

Download or read book Study of Turbulence Modulation by Finite size Solid Particles with the Lattice Boltzmann Method written by Cheng Peng and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Turbulent flows laden with finite-size solid particles are found in a variety of natural and engineering processes. However, the overall understanding of how the flow properties, such as turbulent intensity and flow drag, are modified by the addition of the particles is still limited. So far, the only rigorous approach to investigate the modulation mechanisms at the particle scale is to numerically solve the disturbance flow around each particle, known as the interface-resolved simulations (IRS). However, the application of IRS in the turbulent particle-laden flow is particularly challenging due to the requirements of resolving all the length and time scales in the turbulent flow, as well as the need to realize the no-slip boundary condition on the moving particle surfaces. ☐ In recent years, the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) has emerged as an efficient and accurate numerical approach for computational fluid dynamics. Compared to the conventional approaches of directly solving the Navier-Stokes equations, LBM is simple to code, easy to parallelize, and flexible in treating boundary conditions. In particular, the no-slip boundary treatment based on bounce-back scheme and mesoscopic momentum exchange in LBM take full advantage of the gas kinetic description. However, the realization of these treatments in particle-laden turbulent flow simulations is still rare. So far, the majority of the particle-laden turbulent flow simulations relies on the smoothed-boundary treatments, such as the immersed boundary methods, which tends to induce artificial dissipation. In this dissertation, LBM with a sharp-interface treatment is developed to investigate turbulence modulation by finite-size solid particles. ☐ After a thorough validation, the method is applied to the simulations of a turbulent channel flow laden with both fixed and moving particles. The interactions between the dispersed particles and carrier turbulent flows, especially the modulation induced by the particles on the turbulence intensity and its parameter dependence are examined. The addition of particles is found to result in a more homogeneous distribution of turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) in the wall normal direction and a more isotropic TKE distribution among different spatial directions, comparing to the single-phase turbulent channel flow. To gain further insight, the budget equations of both the total TKE and component-wise TKE in the particle-laden turbulent flows are derived and analyzed using the simulation data. The budget analysis of the total TKE shows that the production rate of TKE from the mean flow is modified to become more uniform in the wall-normal direction by the presence of particles, which is responsible for the more homogeneous distribution of TKE. Specifically, in the buffer region where the TKE source is maximized in the single-phase flow, the TKE source due to the mean shear is reduced since both the mean flow velocity gradient and the Reynolds stress are reduced by the presence of particles. This reduction is found to be related to the particle inertia, where particles with larger inertia result in greater reduction of the TKE source. On the other hand, particles pump energy to turbulent fluctuations by doing work directly (moving particles) or inducing disturbances to the mean flow (fixed particles), converting more mechanical energy from the mean flow to the turbulent motion. The strength of this extra TKE source is related to the dynamics of the wake developed behind particles and therefore is particle-Reynolds-number dependent. The relative strength of the above two mechanisms determines whether the turbulence intensity of a turbulent channel flow is augmented or attenuated by the presence of particles. The budget analysis of component-wise TKE reveals that the more isotropic distribution of TKE among different spatial directions results from the enhanced inter-components transfer of TKE. This enhancement is found to originate from the spherical shape of the particles and particle rotation. ☐ In summary, the improved LBM simulation method based on the sharp-interface treatment provides a better alternative for particle-laden turbulent flow simulations than the commonly used smoothed-interface treatments. The physical results from this dissertation research advance our understanding of flow modulation induced by finite-size solid particles in turbulent flows, particularly in wall-bounded turbulent flows.

Book Turbulence Modulation and Dense Spray Structure

Download or read book Turbulence Modulation and Dense Spray Structure written by R. N. Parthasarathy and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A theoretical and experimental study of phenomena related to dense sprays is described. Two aspects of dense sprays are being considered: effects of turbulence modulation, which is the direct effect of particle (drop) motion on the turbulence properties of multiphase flows; and the structure and mixing properties of the dense-spray region of pressure atomized sprays. Turbulence modulation is being studied by considering spherical monodisperse glass particles falling in a stagnant water bath, where effects of turbulence modulation are responsible for the entire turbulence field. Measurements involve phase velocities and temporal and spatial correlations and spectra of the continuous phase velocities using a two-point phase-discriminating laser Doppler anemometer. Flow properties are being analyzed using stochastic methods: assuming linear superposition of randomly arriving particle wakes (Poisson statistics) for liquid phase properties; and random-walk calculations based on statistical time-series methods for particle properties.

Book TURBULENCE MODULATION UNDER LARGE PARTICLE LOADING

Download or read book TURBULENCE MODULATION UNDER LARGE PARTICLE LOADING written by Aidan Stephen Cronin and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Particle-laden turbulence is important to a diverse range of topics: from aerosol transport in the atmosphere to flocculation techniques treating our drinking water. Often the particles in flows of interest are large and non-spherical, making them difficult to study, and so simplified cases are considered to quantify turbulent behaviors. Experimental laboratory research has provided insight into the quantifiable behavior of these simplified particle-laden flows, notably in cases of homogeneous and isotropic (H.I) turbulence. For this research, we designed and constructed a novel laboratory turbulence tank for the study of particle-laden flows that could create a region of H.I turbulence at its center. To do so, we incorporated random, symmetric forcing on a completely new geometry (a modified icosahedron) intending to maintain the properties of H.I. turbulence while increasing the size of the region of the tank in which it is contained. This facility will provide a unique testbed for studies of particle-laden turbulence.
