Modeling Gaseous CO 2 Flow Behavior in Layered Basalts: Dimensional Analysis and Aquifer Response

An impeller of a supersonic centrifugal compressor was tested in a casing without a diffuser so that the flow range was not limited by the diffuser. Regarding the impeller, emphasis was placed on critical conditions such as inducer stall and surge. Experimental data were examined based on a one-dimensional analysis and a quasi-three-dimensional analysis. Furthermore, the variation of shroud pressure with respect to time at many locations was utilized to guess the details of flow behavior between impeller blades near the shroud, and the contour of isobars was compared with that predicted by a quasi-three-dimensional analysis. When the inlet relative velocity was supersonic, a detached shock wave and a shock wave in a blade channel were recognized, but the compressor operated efficiently, although such condition existed only in a narrow flow range limited by surge and choke.

Alpha Titanium

The in situ experimentation technique in HVEM seems to be particularly suitable to clarify the processes involved in recrystallization. The material under investigation was unidirectionally cold-rolled titanium of commercial purity. The problem was approached in two different ways. The three-dimensional analysis of textures was used to describe the texture evolution during the primary recrystallization. Observations of bulk-annealed specimens or thin foils annealed in the microscope were also made in order to provide information concerning the mechanisms involved in the formation of new grains. In contrast to the already published work on titanium, this investigation takes into consideration different values of the cold-work ratio, the temperature and the annealing time.Two different models are commonly used to explain the recrystallization textures i.e. the selective grain growth model (Beck) or the oriented nucleation model (Burgers). The three-dimensional analysis of both the rolling and recrystallization textures was performed to identify the mechanismsl involved in the recrystallization of titanium.

The Impact

The transient multiphase flow behavior in a single-strand tundish during ladle change was studied using physical modeling. The water and silicon oil were employed to simulate the liquid steel and slag. The effect of the turbulence inhibitor on the slag entrainment and the steel exposure during ladle change were evaluated and discussed. The effect of the slag carry-over on the water-oil-air flow was also analyzed. For the original tundish, the top oil phase in the impact zone was continuously dragged into the tundish bath and opened during ladle change, forming an emulsification phenomenon. By decreasing the liquid velocities in the upper part of the impact zone, the turbulence inhibitor decreased considerably the amount of entrained slag and the steel exposure during ladle change, thereby eliminating the emulsification phenomenon. Furthermore, the use of the TI-2 effectively lowered the effect of the slag carry-over on the steel cleanliness by controlling the movement of slag droplets. The results from industrial trials indicated that the application of the TI-2 reduced considerably the number of linear inclusions caused by ladle change in hot-rolled strip coils.
