As for ultrasonic gas flow meters, special attention should be paid to transducer installation effect as the flow disturbed by transducers will greatly affect the transit time determination and accordingly reduce metering accuracy. This paper presents a numerical method to analyze the disturbed effects based on Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD), which can give valuable guides for transducer installations. Different pipe configurations covering a wide velocity range are modelled to simulate the actual flow field in different chords for three transducer installations including protrusion, recess and half protrusion. Then, detailed results are presented and the mechanism is analyzed to give suggestions about better transducer installations and a modified weighting factor method to improve the incredible error is also given in this paper.

The drying process is most popular preservation methods. It is important in producing the powder and natural dye by concentration fruit drying. Spray-DIC is one of the concentration techniques for drying process using the nozzle flow application in computational fluid dynamic. The mathematical modeling for drying process in this paper includes mass conservation and energy conservation of fruit concentration based on partial differential equation. The discretization of mathematical model will use the finite difference method with the initial and boundary conditions of nozzle flow application. The mathematical modeling computes numerical in sequential algorithm. Jacobi and Gauss-Seidel scheme will use to solve the linear system of mathematical modeling. The execution time, no of iteration, accuracy, root mean square error and maximum error are measured for investigating the numerical analysis. The results show the Gauss Seidel method is the alternative method compared to Jacobi method for solving the Spray-DIC modeling.
