In view of the difficulty of traditional hydrocyclones to meet the requirements of fine classification, a double-overflow three-product (internal overflow, external overflow and underflow) hydrocyclone was designed in this study. Numerical simulation and experimental research methods were used to investigate the effects of double-overflow flow field characteristics and structural parameters (i.e., internal vortex finder diameter and insertion depth) on separation performance. The research results showed that the larger the diameter of the internal vortex finder, the greater the overflow yield and the larger the cut size. The finest internal overflow product can be obtained when the internal vortex finder is 30 mm longer than the external vortex finder. The separation efficiency is highest when the internal vortex finder is 30 mm shorter than the external vortex finder.

At the present time, one of the most relevant challenges in marine and ocean engineering and practice is the development of a mathematical modeling that can accurately replicate the interaction of water waves with porous coastal structures. Over the last 60 years, multiple techniques and solutions have been identified, from linearized solutions based on wave theories and constant friction coefficients to very sophisticated Eulerian or Lagrangian solvers of the Navier-Stokes (NS) equations. In order to explore the flow field interior and exterior of the porous media under different working conditions, the Smooth Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) numerical simulation method was used to simulate the flow distribution inside and outside a porous media applied to interact with the wave propagation. The flow behavior is described avoiding Euler’s description of the interface problem between the Euler mesh and the material selected. Considering the velocity boundary conditions and the cyclical circulation boundary conditions at the junction of the porous media and the water flow, the SPH numerical simulation is used to analyze the flow field characteristics, as well as the longitudinal and vertical velocity distribution of the back vortex flow field and the law of eddy current motion. This study provides innovative insights on the mathematical modelling of the interaction between porous structures and flow propagation. Furthermore, there is a good agreement (within 10%) between the numerical results and the experimental ones collected for scenarios with porosity of 0.349 and 0.475, demonstrating that SPH can simulate the flow patterns of the porous media, the flow through the inner and outer areas of the porous media, and the flow field of the back vortex region. Results obtained and the new mathematical approach used can help to effectively simulate with high-precision the changes along the water depth, for a better design of marine and ocean engineering solutions adopted to protect coastal areas.

The flow-field characteristics of high-temperature annular buoyant jets as well as the development laws influenced by ventilation system were studied using numerical methods to eliminate the pollutants effectively in this paper. The development laws of high-temperature annular buoyant jets were analyzed and compared with previous studies, including radial velocity distribution, axial velocity and temperature decay, reattachment position, cross-section diameter, volumetric flow rate, and velocity field characteristics with different pressures at the exhaust hood inlet. The results showed that when the ratio of outer diameter to inner diameter of the annulus was smaller than 5/2, the flow-field characteristics had significant difference compared to circular buoyant jets with the same outer diameter. For similar diameter ratios, reattachment in this paper occurred further downstream in contrast to previous study. Besides, the development laws of volumetric flow rate and cross-section diameter were given with different initial parameters. In addition, through analyzing air distribution characteristics under the coupling effect of high-temperature annular buoyant jets and ventilation system, it could be found that the position where maximum axial velocity occurred was changing gradually when the pressure at the exhaust hood inlet changed from 0 Pa to −5 Pa.

For flotation characteristics of complex sulfide mineral of low-tin in Guangxi Dachang mine, fluid dynamics software FLUENT was applied to simulate the turbulence intensity of slurry fluid in flotation machine at different inflation pressures. The effect of flow field characteristics was gotten for flotation machine. Simulation results show that the best inflation pressure was 120000 Pa.

Axial flow cyclone separator with guide blade has been widely used, due to its low resistance, huge gas processing and small volume. Although its structure is simple, three-dimension strong rotating turbulent flow forms which involves many complex interactions such as dual-phase separation, adsorption and electrostatic interference. This paper is focused on studying the resistance performance of the axial flow cyclone separator. Numerical simulation methods are carried out to acquire the internal flow field characteristics under different operating pressure and temperature conditions. The result shows that the pressure drop decreases under the same operating pressure, as the operating temperature increases. When the operating temperature is the same, the higher operating pressure enhances the value of the pressure drop. Velocity distribution, pressure contours and turbulent viscosity contours have been presented, to analyze the characteristics of the internal airflow, so as to help optimize the design. Experiments are intended to verify the results of numerical simulation and explore the internal flow field of the cyclone separator further. The cyclone separator has 8 rotary blades which are split into 8 parts, namely one blade is 45° in the tangential direction. 0° and 22.5° are chosen in the experiment. The dimensionless pressure distribution is shown. A comparison of the CFD results and the experimental results is made to prove that the numerical simulation methods are correct and accurate. The curve of the numerical simulation results is very close to that of the experimental results with the similar trend. It is concluded that the methods can predict the internal flow field characteristics of the axial flow cyclone separator.

In order to ensure safety and reliable operation of the natural gas pipeline drainage valve,the 3D numerical simulation on flow field characteristics inside the drainage valve of the natural gas pipeline under the different conditions of the seasons of winter and summer is carried out by using the standard model. In the tow different season condition, the streamline and velocity vector distribution inside the drainage valve has been studied. Under the two seasons conditions are studied. The results show that as the change of drainage valve opening the turbulence appear in the valve and the maximum value appears in the inlet,which the winter is larger than summer.The velocity vector distribution in the drainage valve is not the same and the larger velocity appears at the drain exit with the valve opening increasing. The differences in temperature, condensate discharge, condensate gas pipeline in different displacement,density and viscosity in the winter seasons and summer seasons results in the different characteristic.of the flow field characteristics inside discharging valve.
