Three products hydrocyclone screen (TPHS) can be considered as the combination of a conventional hydrocyclone and a cylindrical screen. In this device, particles are separated based on size under the centrifugal classification coupling screening effect. The objective of this work is to explore the characteristics of fluid flow in TPHS using the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation. The 2 million grid scheme, volume fraction model, and linear pressure–strain Reynolds stress model were utilized to generate the economical grid-independence solution. The pressure profile reveals that the distribution of static pressure was axisymmetric, and its value was reduced with the increasing axial depth. The maximum and minimum were located near the tangential inflection point of the feed inlet and the outlets, respectively. However, local asymmetry was created by the left tangential inlet and the right screen underflow outlet. Furthermore, at the same axial height, the static pressure gradually decreased along the wall to the center. Near the cylindrical screen, the pressure difference between the inside and the outside cylindrical screen dropped from positive to negative as the axial depth increased from −35 to −185 mm. Besides, TPHS shows similar distributions of turbulence intensity I, turbulence kinetic energy k, and turbulence dissipation rate ε; i.e., the values fell with the decrease in axial height. Meanwhile, from high to low, the pressure values are distributed in the feed chamber, the cylindrical screen, and conical vessel; the value inside the screen was higher than the outer value.

Seismic wave attenuation caused by subsurface viscoelasticity reduces the quality of migration and the reliability of interpretation. A variety of Q-compensated migration methods have been developed based on the second-order viscoacoustic quasidifferential equations. However, these second-order wave-equation-based methods are difficult to handle with density perturbation and surface topography. In addition, the staggered grid scheme, which has an advantage over the collocated grid scheme because of its reduced numerical dispersion and enhanced stability, works in first-order wave-equation-based methods. We have developed a Q least-squares reverse time migration method based on the first-order viscoacoustic quasidifferential equations by deriving Q-compensated forward-propagated operators, Q-compensated adjoint operators, and Q-attenuated Born modeling operators. Besides, our method using curvilinear grids is available even when the attenuating medium has surface topography and can conduct Q-compensated migration with density perturbation. The results of numerical tests on two synthetic and a field data sets indicate that our method improves the imaging quality with iterations and produces better imaging results with clearer structures, higher signal-to-noise ratio, higher resolution, and more balanced amplitude by correcting the energy loss and phase distortion caused by Q attenuation. It also suppresses the scattering and diffracted noise caused by the surface topography.

Direct simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) method in low Knudsen rarefied flows at micro/nanoscales remains a big challenge for researchers due to large computational requirements. In this article, the application of the simplified Bernoulli-trials (SBT)/dual grid collision scheme is extended for solving low Knudsen/low speed and low Knudsen/high gradient rarefied micro/nanoflows. The main advantage of the SBT algorithm is to provide accurate calculations using much smaller number of particles per cell, i.e., 〈N〉 ≈ 2, which is quite beneficial for near continuum DSMC simulations where the requirement of fine meshes faces the simulation with serious memory restrictions. Comparing the results of the SBT/dual grid scheme with the no time counter (NTC) scheme and majorant frequency scheme (MFS), it is shown that the SBT/dual grid scheme could successfully predict the thermal pattern and hydrodynamics field as well as surface parameters such as velocity slip, temperature jump and wall heat fluxes. Therefore, we present SBT/dual grid algorithm as a suitable alternative of the standard collision schemes in the DSMC method for typical micro/nanoflows solution. Nonlinear flux-corrected transport (FCT) algorithm is also employed as a filter to extract the smooth solution from the noisy DSMC calculation for low speed/low Knudsen number DSMC calculations.
