Book Synopsis River Flow 2016 by : George Constantinescu
Download or read book River Flow 2016 written by George Constantinescu and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2016-06-22 with total page 3703 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding and being able to predict fluvial processes is one of the biggest challenges for hydraulics and environmental engineers, hydrologists and other scientists interested in preserving and restoring the diverse functions of rivers. The interactions among flow, turbulence, vegetation, macroinvertebrates and other organisms, as well as the transport and retention of particulate matter, have important consequences on the ecological health of rivers. Managing rivers in an ecologically friendly way is a major component of sustainable engineering design, maintenance and restoration of ecological habitats. To address these challenges, a major focus of River Flow 2016 was to highlight the latest advances in experimental, computational and theoretical approaches that can be used to deepen our understanding and capacity to predict flow and the associated fluid-driven ecological processes, anthropogenic influences, sediment transport and morphodynamic processes. River Flow 2016 was organized under the auspices of the Committee for Fluvial Hydraulics of the International Association for Hydro-Environment Engineering and Research (IAHR). Since its first edition in 2002, the River Flow conference series has become the main international event focusing on river hydrodynamics, sediment transport, river engineering and restoration. Some of the highlights of the 8th International Conference on Fluvial Hydraulics were to focus on inter-disciplinary research involving, among others, ecological and biological aspects relevant to river flows and processes and to emphasize broader themes dealing with river sustainability. River Flow 2016 contains the contributions presented during the regular sessions covering the main conference themes and the special sessions focusing on specific hot topics of river flow research, and will be of interest to academics interested in hydraulics, hydrology and environmental engineering.

Book Synopsis The dynamics of finite-size settling particles by : Doychev, Todor
Download or read book The dynamics of finite-size settling particles written by Doychev, Todor and published by KIT Scientific Publishing. This book was released on 2015-01-27 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contributes to the fundamental understanding of the physical mechanisms that take place in pseudo turbulent particulate flows. In the present work we have considered the sedimentation of large numbers of spherical rigid particles in an initially quiescent flow field. We have performed direct numerical simulations employing an immersed boundary method for the representation of the fluid-solid interface. The results evidence that depending on the particle settling regime (i.e. Galileo number and particle-to-fluid density ratio) the particles may exhibit strong inhomogeneous spatial distribution. It is found that the particles are preferentially located in regions with downward fluid motion. The particles inside clusters experience larger settling velocities than the average. The flow in all flow cases is observed to exhibit characteristic features of pseudo-turbulence. The particle-induced flow field is further found to be highly anisotropic with dominant vertical components. The results indicate that, in the present flow configurations, the collective and mobility effects play significant role for the particle and fluid motion.

Book Synopsis Modelling Fluid Dynamics and Mass Transfer in Bubble Plumes Using Lagrangian Particle Tracking by : Mengyao Wang
Download or read book Modelling Fluid Dynamics and Mass Transfer in Bubble Plumes Using Lagrangian Particle Tracking written by Mengyao Wang and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A solver was developed in OpenFOAM to simulate fluid dynamics and gas dissolution in bubble plumes. The solver uses Lagrangian particle tracking (LPT) to resolve the motion of individual bubbles or bubbles grouped into parcels. Interphase momentum exchange models are used to provide two-way coupling between the motion of the bubbles and the surrounding liquid. The volume-of-fluid (VOF) method is used to track the position of the gas-liquid free surface. The performance of the hybrid LPT-VOF solver was verified using several theoretical test cases. Solver validation employed three bubble plume validation cases with experimental data from the literature: small-scale vertical injection, small-scale horizontal injection, and large-scale vertical injection. Overall, the predicted results are in good agreement with the experimental results. Although the solver predicts reasonable results, it has limitations on the implemented interphase momentum and mass exchange methods, averaging techniques, and has not been tested for non-uniform bubble size distributions.

The scope and structure of the book as well as the selection of authors was motivated by the very successful summer course and workshop "Particles in Flows'' that was held in Prague in the August of 2014. This meeting revealed the need for a book dealing with this specific and challenging multidisciplinary subject, i.e. particles in industrial, environmental and biomedical flows and the combination of fluid mechanics, solid body mechanics with various aspects of specific applications.
Download or read book Bubbly Flows written by Martin Sommerfeld and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 354 pages. 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 excerpt: The mechanics of how particles diffuse, interact, eject, etc. within a fluid is applicable to numerous industrial and environmental applications. Unwanted products of combustion, dust contamination of solar panels, pathogen transport during a cough and ejections of particles during volcanic eruptions, are a few examples of flows in which increased knowledge of particle dynamics could result in substantial reduction of negative environmental and economic impacts. To better understand the tendencies of particles within shearing flows (such as jets), an extensive experimental campaign was conducted. Measurements of a turbulent round water jet were performed within an icosahedral tank. Particle tracking velocimetry was employed to create three-component, three-dimensional trajectories. Particles of varying size and weight were used to seed the flow in order to provide a range of inertial effects based on the particle interaction with the fluid. Numerous Eulerian and Lagrangian parameters were characterized and most notable, a trajectory stationarization technique was successfully implemented to address the inhomogeneity of the flow field. This approach could be extended to provide systematic methods to analyze complicated flow fields, enhancing knowledge of their dynamics. Alternatively, theoretical models of particle mechanics have been constructed, contributing to the baseline understanding of Lagrangian dynamics. Stochastic processes and phenomenological approaches are presented to accurately predict the low-order statistics of tracers, point particles which follow the motion of the fluid, for the idealized flow of homogeneous, isotropic and stationary turbulence (i.e. without the inclusions of external forces).
Book Synopsis Hybrid Particle Laden Flow Modelling by : David Schellander
Download or read book Hybrid Particle Laden Flow Modelling written by David Schellander and published by . This book was released on 2013-09 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2013 in the subject Engineering - Mechanical Engineering, grade: 1, University of Linz (Department on Particulate Flow Modelling), language: English, abstract: The numerical hybrid model EUgran+, which is an Eulerian-Eulerian granular phase model extended with models from the Eulerian-Lagrangian model for dense rapid particulate flows, is modified to account for poly-dispersed particle diameter distributions. These modifications include the implementation of I) a new poly-dispersed drag law and of II) new particle boundary conditions distinguishing between sliding and non-sliding particle-wall collisions and III) a new implementation of the population balance equation in the agglomeration model using the Eulerian-Lagrangian approach, referred to as Bus-stop model. Further, the applicability of the EUgran+ model is extended to cover dilute to dense poly-disperse particulate flows. Furthermore, this provides an improvement in the numerical simulation of dust separation and the formation of particle strands in industrial scale cyclones. In this PHD thesis, the EUgran+Poly model is validated at 3 specific cases with different mass loadings: I) poly-dispersed particle conveying in a square pipe with a 90 degree bend at low mass loading (L = 0:00206); II) a particle conveying case in a rectangular pipe with a double-loop at high mass loading (L = 1:5); III) in a vertical pipe the implementation of the agglomeration model is validated. To show the applicability of the presented models a simulation of an industrial cyclone in experimental scale is presented. The validation and application shows that considering a poly-disperse Eulerian-Eulerian granular phase improves the accordance of the simulation results with measurements significantly. Finally, the hybrid model is a good compromise for a computational efficient simulation of particulate transport and separation with different mass loading regimes.
Book Synopsis Study of Turbulence Modulation by Finite-size Solid Particles with the Lattice Boltzmann Method by : Cheng Peng
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 Synopsis Fluid Mechanics of Mixing by : R. King
Download or read book Fluid Mechanics of Mixing written by R. King and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is a selection of the material presented at the 7th European Mixing Congress. It is concerned exclusively with mixing in circular section vessels, using centrally mounted paddles or similar impellers. The contents are arranged under three classifications: Modelling of Mixing Processes, Mixing Operations and Experimental Techniques. The classifications result in the original material appearing in a different order to that of the Congress. This arrangement is intended to assist the reader in identifying the topic area by function or application, rather than by technology. In this book the section on Modelling contains papers which focus on the representation of the mixing process, whether by equation, scale-up criteria, or fluid dynamic simulation. Similarly, Mixing Operations are concerned with the application or function of the mixing process, such as mass transfer, heat transfer or mixing time. Experimental Techniques addresses the tools the researcher needs to use at the data gathering experimental stage. It collects together advances made in the various methods used by some of the foremost researchers, and indicates those areas still in need of additional instrumentation or methods of data reduction. The book is intended for researchers, designers and users of mixing equipment, and for those planning research and development programmes and who wish to keep up to date with advances in the basic technology and its applications.
