Flow And Mass Transport

The simultaneous effect of flexible wall and multiple stenoses on the flow and mass transfer of blood is investigated through numerical computation and simulations. The solution is obtained using the Marker and Cell technique on an axisymmetric model of Newtonian blood flow. The results compare favorably with physical observations where the pulsatile boundary condition and double stenoses result in a higher pressure drop across the stenoses. The streamlines, the iso-concentration lines, the Sherwood number, and the mass concentration variations along the entire wall segment provide a comprehensive analysis of the mass transport characteristics. The double stenoses and pulsatile inlet conditions increase the number of recirculation regions and effect a higher mass transfer rate at the throat, whereby more mass is expected to accumulate and cause further stenosis.

Dimensionless Groups

Abstract Coupled differential equations that are difficult to solve, yet have predictive value, will arise when modeling a combination of general and localized corrosion in the presence of flow. These equations are impossible to solve if the flow is turbulent. By making the equations dimensionless, certain groups arise that can show the relative magnitudes of the processes involved. Three dimensionless groups arise from modeling the localized area. These show the ratios of the magnitudes of migration to diffusion, convective mass transport to diffusive mass transport, and surface reaction rate to mass transfer rate. The meanings of the groups are independent of geometry and flow conditions. These groups can provide a “back-of-the-envelope” type of guidance for experimental design and corrosion prediction even though the equations from which they are derived cannot be solved.

Limiting Diffusion Current

The limiting diffusion current technique was used for investigation of free convective mass transfer at down-pointing up-facing isosceles triangular surfaces of varying length and inclination. As the mass transfer process, copper deposition from acidified copper(II) sulfate solution was used. It was found that the mass transfer rate increases with inclination from the vertical to the horizontal position and decreases with length of inclined surface. Correlation equations for 7 angles from 0 to 90° were found. The exponent in the ShL-RaL correlation ranged from 0.247 for the vertical case, indicating laminar flow, to 0.32 for inclinations of 60 to 90°, indicating mixed or turbulent flow. The general correlation ShL = 0.358(RaL sin θ)0.30 for the RaL sin θ range from 7 × 106 to 2 × 1011 and inclination range from 15 to 90° was obtained.
