An experimental investigation of a two-phase pipe flow was undertaken to study kinematic and dynamic parameters of the fluid and solid phases. To accomplish this, a two-color digital particle image velocimetry and accelerometry (DPIV∕DPIA) methodology was used to measure velocity and acceleration fields of the fluid phase and solid phase simultaneously. The simultaneous, two-color DPIV∕DPIA measurements provided information on the changing characteristics of two-phase flow kinematic and dynamic quantities. Analysis of kinematic terms indicated that turbulence was suppressed due to the presence of the solid phase. Dynamic considerations focused on the second and third central moments of temporal acceleration for both phases. For the condition studied, the distribution across the tube of the second central moment of acceleration indicated a higher value for the solid phase than the fluid phase; both phases had increased values near the wall. The third central moment statistic of acceleration showed a variation between the two phases with the fluid phase having an oscillatory-type profile across the tube and the solid phase having a fairly flat profile. The differences in second and third central moment profiles between the two phases are attributed to the inertia of each particle type and its response to turbulence structures. Analysis of acceleration statistics provides another approach to characterize flow fields and gives some insight into the flow structures, even for steady flows.

In this paper, we present simple and exact eigenvalues for both the solid- and fluid-phases of the real two-phase general model developed by Pudasaini (2012); we call these phase-eigenvalues, the solid- phase-eigenvalues and the fluid-phase-eigenvalues. Results are compared by applying the derived phase- eigenvalues that incorporate the phase-interactions in the two-phase debris movements against the simple and classical solid and fluid eigenvalues without any phase interaction. We have constructed several different set of eigenvalues including the coupled phase eigenvalues by using rational factorization method. At first, we consider for general debris height; factorizing the solid and fluid lateral pressure contributions by considering the negligible pressure gradient; negligible solid lateral pressure; negligible fluid lateral pressure; negligible solid and fluid lateral pressure. Secondly, for a thin debris ow height, we also construct the fourth set of eigenvalues in three different cases. These phase-eigenvalues incorporate strong interaction between the solid and fluid dynamics. The simulation results are produced by taking all these different sets of coupled phase-eigenvalues and are compared with the classical uncoupled set of solid and fluid eigenvalues. The results indicate the importance of phase-eigenvalues and supports for a complete description of the phase- eigenvalues for the enhanced description of real two-phase debris flows and landslide motions.

The study of heat transfer in fixed bed tubular reactors of heated or cooled walls has presented great interest by the academy and industry. The adequate and safe design of such equipment requires the use of reliable and realistic mathematical. Unfortunately several studies are restrict to homogeneous model applied to circular and elliptic cylindrical reactors. Then, the objective of this work was to predict heat transfer in packed-bed elliptic cylindrical reactor, by using a proposed heterogeneous model. The mathematical model is composed for one solid phase and another fluid phase, in which the balance equation for each constituent is applied separately. The finite volume method was utilized to solve the partial differential equations using the WUDS scheme for interpolation of the convective and diffusive terms, and the fully implicit formulation. Results of the temperature distribution of the fluid and solid phases along the reactor are presented and analyzed. It was verified that the highest temperature gradients of the phases are located close to the wall and inlet of the reactor.

The transport in pipe flow of a chemical species can be materially affected by the presence of solid suspension if the species is capable of partitioning into a solute phase and a solid phase sorbed onto the suspended particles. An asymptotic analysis is used in this work to deduce the effective transport equations for the two phases, with kinetic sorptive exchange taken into account. The effects of sorption on the advection and dispersion of a sorbing chemical are discussed and illustrated with a numerical example.

This paper develops dynamical equations for variable mass systems that can be viewed, at any given instant, as comprising a solid phase and a fluid phase. The equations of translational and rotational motion are presented, and several versions of each are given. It is shown that some versions have major advantages over others because they involve parameters that are relatively easy to estimate in practical problems, and make close-form solutions possible without the usual penalty of drastic simplifying assumptions. A simple rocket example is presented, and shows that instability cannot be ruled out for such systems. It is shown that system and combustion chamber geometry play a crucial role in the attitude stability of such systems.

Abstract. Debris flows are multiphase, gravity-driven flows consisting of randomly dispersed interacting phases. The interaction between the solid phase and liquid phase plays a significant role on debris flow motion. This paper presents a new two-phase debris flow model based on the shallow water assumption and depth-average integration. The model employs the Mohr–Coulomb plasticity for the solid stress, and the fluid stress is modeled as a Newtonian viscous stress. The interfacial momentum transfer includes viscous drag, buoyancy and interaction force between solid phase and fluid phase. We solve numerically the one-dimensional model equations by a high-resolution finite volume scheme based on a Roe-type Riemann solver. The model and the numerical method are validated by using one-dimensional dam-break problem. The influences of volume fraction on the motion of debris flow are discussed and comparison between the present model and Pitman's model is presented. Results of numerical experiments demonstrate that viscous stress of fluid phase has significant effect in the process of movement of debris flow and volume fraction of solid phase significantly affects the debris flow dynamics.

ABSTRACTSemisolid alloys exhibit a shear rate history dependent flow behavior. The increasing interest on numerical modeling of thixo-casting processes makes it quite important to understand the flow behavior of semisolids. Its apparent viscosity is the key parameter for the numerical models. In this paper a two phase approach is used to investigate the rheology of semisolid alloys. It is assumed that both, liquid and solid phase, can be regarded as inter-penetrating continua with its own viscosity. Thus, each phase is thought to behave as a Newtonian fluid. The simulation results show that the rheology of the two-phase flow is determined by the interaction between the solid and the liquid, i.e. the momentum exchange between the two phases. Non-Newtonian flow behavior of the solid-liquid mixture is predicted although both phases are considered as Newtonian fluids.

A thin-wall 410L Stainless metallic honeycomb has been fabricated successfully by extruding and sintering processing. The extruded pastes are a combination of two phases: a solid phase composed of metallic powder carried by a fluid solution of water, binder and additives. The key to forming high quality, defect free honeycombs lies in the optimization of paste properties and is contingent on solids loading and fluid-phase rheology. To develop a model that predicts paste rheology, capillary rheometry was used to characterize powder pastes and binder gels used as the fluid phase. Suspension viscosity models were successfully applied to permit rapid optimization of solids content and binder gel solution for extrusion of honeycombs.

AbstractThe stability of C54 Ti(Si1−yGey)2 films in contact with Si1−xGex substrates was investigated. The titanium germanosilicide films were formed from the Ti − Si1−xGex solid phase metallization reaction. It was observed that Ti(Si1−yGey) 2 initially forms with the same germanium content as the Si1−x Gex substrate (i.e., y = x). Following the initial formation of TiM2 (M = Sil−yGey), silicon and germanium from the substrate diffuse into the TiM2 layer, the composition of the TiM2 changes, and Si1−z Gez precipitates form along the TiM2 grain boundaries. The germanium content of the Ti(Sil−y Gey)2 decreases, and the Sil−z Gez precipitates are germanium rich such that y < x < z. This instability of the TiM2 film and the dynamics of the germanium segregation were examined using the Ti-Si-Ge ternary equilibrium diagram. The relevant region of the ternary diagram is the two phase domain limited by a Si-Ge solid solution and a TiSi2 − TiGe2 solid solution. In this study first approximation Ti(Sil−y Gey)2 -to- Sil−xGex tie lines were calculated on the basis of classical thermodynamics. The tie line calculations indicate that for C54 Ti(Sil−yGey)2 to be stable in contact with Sil−xGex, the compositions of the two phases in equilibrium must be such that y < x. The specific compositions of the two phases in equilibrium depend on the temperature and the relative quantities of the two phases. The dynamic processes by which the Ti(Si1−yGey)2/Si1−x. Gex, system progresses from the as-formed state (y = x) to the equilibrium state (y < x) can be predicted using the tie line calculations.

In this paper, the plasma discharge in a high-pressure fluid stream in order to produce gaseous hydrogen was studied. Methods and equipment have been developed for the excitation of a plasma discharge in a stream of liquid medium. The fluid flow under excessive pressure is directed to a hydrodynamic emitter located at the reactor inlet where a supersonic two-phase vapor-liquid flow under reduced pressure is formed in the liquid due to the pressure drop and decrease in the flow enthalpy. Electrodes are located in the reactor where an electric field is created using an external power source (the strength of the field exceeds the breakdown threshold of this two-phase medium) leading to theinitiation of a low-temperature glow quasi-stationary plasma discharge.A theoretical estimation of the parameters of this type of discharge has been carried out. It is shown that the lowtemperature plasma initiated under the flow conditions of a liquid-phase medium in the discharge gap between the electrodes can effectively decompose the hydrogen-containing molecules of organic compounds in a liquid with the formation of gaseous products where the content of hydrogen is more than 90%. In the process simulation, theoretical calculations of the voltage and discharge current were also made which are in good agreement with the experimental data. The reaction unit used in the experiments was of a volume of 50 ml and reaction capacity appeared to be about 1.5 liters of hydrogen per minute when using a mixture of oxygen-containing organic compounds as a raw material. During their decomposition in plasma, solid-phase products are also formed in insignificant amounts: carbon nanoparticles and oxide nanoparticles of discharge electrode materials.
