Laminar And Turbulent Flows

Abstract The transfer of particles in laminar and turbulent flows has many applications in combustion systems, biological, environmental, nanotechnology. In the present study, a Combined Baffles Quick-Separation Device (CBQSD) is simulated numerically using the Eulerian-Lagrangian method and different turbulence models of RNG k-ε, k-ω, and RSM for 1–140 μm particles. A two-way coupling technique is employed to solve the particles’ flow. The effect of inlet flow velocity, the diameter of the splitter plane, and solid particles’ flow rate on the separation efficiency of the device is examined. The results demonstrate that the RSM turbulence model provides more appropriate results compared to RNG k-ε and k-ω models. Four thousand two hundred particles with the size distribution of 1–140 µm enter the device and 3820 particles are trapped and 380 particles leave the device. The efficiency for particles with a diameter greater than 28 µm is 100%. The complete separation of 22–28 μm particles occurs for flow rates of 10–23.5 g/s, respectively. The results reveal that the separation efficiency increases by increasing the inlet velocity, the device diameter, and the diameter of the particles.

Identification Techniques

Almost all real-life structures are assembled from components connected by various types of joints. Unlike many other parts, the dynamic properties of a joint are difficult to model analytically. An alternative approach for establishing a theoretical model of a joint is to extract the model parameters from experimental data using joint identification techniques. The accuracy of the identification is significantly affected by the properties of the joints themselves. If a joint is stiff, its properties are often difficult to identify accurately. This is because the responses at both ends of the joint are linearly-dependent. To make things worse, the existence of a stiff joint can also affect the accuracy of identification of other effective joints (the term “effective joints” in this paper refers to those joints which otherwise can be identified accurately). This problem is tackled by coupling these stiff joints using a generalized coupling technique, and then the properties of the remaining joints are identified using a joint identification technique. The accuracy of the joint identification can usually be improved by using this approach. Both numerically simulated and experimental results are presented.
