Numerical Predictions

The influence of weak periodic wall undulations on the structure of turbulent pipe flow has been studied in three ways: measurements in air flow using pressure probes and hot-wire techniques, visualizations in water flow and numerical predictions based on a turbulence (k-ε) model. The flows at Reynolds numbers of 30000 and 115000 have been particularly investigated. The flow characteristics proved to be very different from those observed in a straight pipe. Calculations and experiments agree well for the mean- and turbulent-energy fields; however the detailed behaviour of some local quantities such as anisotropy of the Reynolds stress is not well predicted particularly in the crest region. So the performances and the limitations of classical closure have been appraised. The existence of an unsteady reverse-flow region downstream of every crest suggested by measurements and calculations has been clearly confirmed by visualizations in water flow.

Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a degenerative disease defined as the abnormal ballooning of the abdominal aorta (AA) wall which is usually caused by atherosclerosis. The aneurysm grows larger and eventually ruptures if it is not diagnosed and treated. Aneurysms occur mostly in the aorta, the main artery of the chest and abdomen. The aorta carries blood flow from the heart to all parts of the body, including the vital organs, the legs, and feet. The objective of the present study is to investigate the combined effects of aneurysm and curvature on flow characteristics in S-shaped bends with sweep angle of 90° at Reynolds number of 900. The fluid mechanics of blood flow in a curved artery with abnormal aortic is studied through a mathematical analysis and employing Cosmos flow simulation. Blood is modeled as an incompressible non-Newtonian fluid and the flow is assumed to be steady and laminar. Hemodynamic characteristics are analyzed. Grid independence is tested on three successively refined meshes. It is observed that the abrupt expansion induced by AAA results in an immensely disturbed regime. The results may have implications not only for understanding the mechanical behavior of the blood flow inside an aneurysm artery but also for investigating the mechanical behavior of the blood flow in different arterial diseases, such as atherosclerosis.

The presented paper, which is the first of two parts, shows the results of numerical investigations of a heat exchanger channel in the form of a cylindrical tube with a thin insert. The insert, placed concentrically in the pipe, uses the phenomenon of thermal radiation absorption to intensify the heat transfer between the pipe wall and the gas. Eight geometric configurations of the insert size were numerically investigated using CFD software, varying its diameter from 20% to 90% of the pipe diameter and obtaining the thermal-flow characteristics for each case. The tests were conducted for a range of numbers Re = 5000–100,000 and a constant temperature difference between the channel wall and the average gas temperature of ∆T = 100 °C. The results show that the highest increase in the Nu number was observed for the inserts with diameters of 0.3 and 0.4 of the channel diameter, while the highest flow resistance was noted for the inserts with diameters of 0.6–0.7 of the channel diameter. The f/fs(Re) and Nu/Nus(Re) ratios are shown on graphs indicating how much the flow resistance and heat transfer increased compared to the pipe without an insert. Two methods of calculating the Nu number are also presented and analysed. In the first one, the average fluid temperature of the entire pipe volume was used to calculate the Nu number, and in the second, only the average fluid temperature of the annular portion formed by the insert was used. The second one gives much larger Nu/Nus ratio values, reaching up to 8–9 for small Re numbers.

Pressure Reducing Valve

In this paper, a new high multi-stage pressure reducing valve (HMSPRV) is proposed. The main advantages include reducing noise and vibration, reducing energy consumption and dealing with complex conditions. As a new high pressure reducing valve, its flow characteristics need to be investigated. For that the valve opening has a great effect on steam flow, pressure reduction and energy consumption, thus different valve openings are taken as the research points to investigate the flow characteristics. The analysis is conducted from four aspects: pressure, velocity, temperature fields and energy consumption. The results show that valve opening has a great effect on flow characteristics. No matter for pressure, velocity or temperature field, the changing gradient mainly reflects at those throttling components for all valve openings. For energy consumption, in the study of turbulent dissipation rate, it can be found that the larger of valve opening, the larger of energy consumption. It can be concluded that the new high multi-stage pressure reducing valve works well under complex conditions. This study can provide technological support for achieving pressure regulation, and benefit the further research work on energy saving and multi-stage design of pressure reducing devices.
