Cross Flow Fan

Cross-flow fans are widely used in heating, wind-curtains, and air-conditionings, as well as other ventilation systems. A single or double arc is generally used as the camber line of cross-flow fans, but this design leads to constraints in the geometry of the blade profiles. In this study, the camber line of a cross-flow fan blade was parameterized by five parameters based on the fourth-order Bezier curve. A two-dimensional computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation was conducted to predict the aerodynamic characteristics and the internal flow field. It is necessary in multi-condition optimization, to evaluate the relative importance of the performance parameters under different working conditions and determine their weight factors. Here, a novel maximum entropy method (MEM) was proposed to quantify of volume flow rate, because the method avoids the subjectivity in the selection of the weights. Subsequently, a multi-island genetic algorithm (MIGA), combined with numerical simulation, was used to search the global optimum in the given design space. The results indicated that the optimum combination of the structural parameters reduced the blade channel vortex in a particular location of the impeller and changed the position and size of the eccentric vortex. The volume flow rate of the optimized impeller was 4.28% higher at the minimum rotation speeds and 12.87% higher at the maximum rotation speeds.

Purpose In this paper, a single module of cross-flow membrane humidifier is evaluated as a three-dimensional multiphase model. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the effect of volume flow rate, dry temperature, dew point wet temperature and porosity of gas diffusion layer on the humidifier performance. Design/methodology/approach In this study, one set of coupled equations are continuity, momentum, species and energy conservation is considered. The numerical code is benchmarked by the comparison of numerical results with experimental data of Hwang et al. Findings The results reveal that the transfer rate of water vapor and dew point approach temperature (DPAT) increase by increasing the volume flow rate. Also, it is found that the water recovery ratio (WRR) and relative humidity (RH) decrease with increasing volume flow rate. In addition, all mixed results decrease with increasing dry side temperature especially at high volume flow rates and this trend in high volume flow rates is more sensible. Although the transfer rate of water vapor and DPAT increases with increasing the wet inlet temperature, WRR and RH reduce. Increasing dew point temperature effect is more sensible at the wet side is compared with the dry side. The humidification performance will be enhanced with increasing diffusion layer porosity by increasing the wet inlet dew point temperature, but has no meaningful effect on other operating parameters. The pressure drop along humidifier gas channels increases with rising flow rate, consequently, the required power of membrane humidifier will enhance. Originality/value According to previous studies, the three-dimensional numerical multiphase model of cross-flow membrane humidifier has not been developed.

Squirrel Cage

Squirrel-cage fans are centrifugal fans with forward-curved blades. A large number of short blades of thin circular arc sheet metal provide a low diameter drum-type rotor of high axial length. Cross-flow fans have a similar rotor design. However, the flow passes the rotor in radial direction two times. One consequence of the forward-curved blades is that there is more or less no pressure rise in the rotor and the casing has to convert the high absolute rotor exit velocity into a global pressure rise. Both types are used in applications requiring low size, relative high volume flow rates, low costs and low noise at the drawback of relative low efficiency. Volume flow rate, specific isentropic enthalpy difference, rotor outer diameter and rotational speed of a single stage fan can be transformed to speed number and diameter number. For axial, radial and mixed flow fans, a single relationship (CORDIER-diagram) exists and it is well accepted that this line represents “optimum” fan designs with high efficiency. The paper provides a theoretical interpretation of the CORDIER-lines for squirrel-cage and cross-flow fans, since they differ considerably from the classical relationship. Based on velocity triangles and energy transfer, CORDIER-line of squirrel-cage fans depends on absolute inlet flow angle, relative exit flow angle, rotor inlet to exit diameter ratio, relative axial rotor width and circumferential efficiency. Additionally, the CORDIER-line of cross-flow fans depends on the degree of admission. At a distinguished pressure coefficient, a maximum speed number is found, corresponding to maximum volume flow rate.

Acid Anhydrides

Embedding media based upon an epoxy resin of choice and the acid anhydrides dodecenyl succinic anhydride (DDSA), nadic methyl anhydride (NMA), and catalyzed by the tertiary amine 2,4,6-Tri(dimethylaminomethyl) phenol (DMP-30) are widely used in biological electron microscopy. These media possess a viscosity character that can impair tissue infiltration, particularly if original Epon 812 is utilized as the base resin. Other resins that are considerably less viscous than Epon 812 now are available as replacements. Likewise, nonenyl succinic anhydride (NSA) and dimethylaminoethanol (DMAE) are more fluid than their counterparts DDSA and DMP- 30 commonly used in earlier formulations. This work utilizes novel epoxy and anhydride combinations in order to produce embedding media with desirable flow rate and viscosity parameters that, in turn, would allow the medium to optimally infiltrate tissues. Specifically, embeding media based on EmBed 812 or LX 112 with NSA (in place of DDSA) and DMAE (replacing DMP-30), with NMA remaining constant, are formulated and offered as alternatives for routine biological work.Individual epoxy resins (Table I) or complete embedding media (Tables II-III) were tested for flow rate and viscosity. The novel media were further examined for their ability to infilftrate tissues, polymerize, sectioning and staining character, as well as strength and stability to the electron beam and column vacuum. For physical comparisons, a volume (9 ml) of either resin or media was aspirated into a capillary viscocimeter oriented vertically. The material was then allowed to flow out freely under the influence of gravity and the flow time necessary for the volume to exit was recored (Col B,C; Tables). In addition, the volume flow rate (ml flowing/second; Col D, Tables) was measured. Viscosity (n) could then be determined by using the Hagen-Poiseville relation for laminar flow, n = c.p/Q, where c = a geometric constant from an instrument calibration with water, p = mass density, and Q = volume flow rate. Mass weight and density of the materials were determined as well (Col F,G; Tables). Infiltration schedules utilized were short (1/2 hr 1:1, 3 hrs full resin), intermediate (1/2 hr 1:1, 6 hrs full resin) , or long (1/2 hr 1:1, 6 hrs full resin) in total time. Polymerization schedules ranging from 15 hrs (overnight) through 24, 36, or 48 hrs were tested. Sections demonstrating gold interference colors were collected on unsupported 200- 300 mesh grids and stained sequentially with uranyl acetate and lead citrate.

Squirrel Cage

In view of the multi-objective optimization design of the squirrel cage fan for the range hood, a blade parameterization method based on the quadratic non-uniform B-spline (NUBS) determined by four control points was proposed to control the outlet angle, chord length and maximum camber of the blade. Morris-Mitchell criteria were used to obtain the optimal Latin hypercube sample based on the evolutionary operation, and different subsets of sample numbers were created to study the influence of sample numbers on the multi-objective optimization results. The Kriging model, which can accurately reflect the response relationship between design variables and optimization objectives, was established. The second-generation Non-dominated Sorting Genetic algorithm (NSGA-II) was used to optimize the volume flow rate at the best efficiency point (BEP) and the maximum volume flow rate point (MVP). The results show that the design parameters corresponding to the optimization results under different sample numbers are not the same, and the fluctuation range of the optimal design parameters is related to the influence of the design parameters on the optimization objectives. Compared with the prototype, the optimized impeller increases the radial velocity of the impeller outlet, reduces the flow loss in the volute, and increases the diffusion capacity, which improves the volume flow rate, and efficiency of the range hood system under multiple working conditions.

Volume Flow

The paper presents an analytical investigation of the peristaltic transport of a viscous fluid under the influence of a magnetic field through a tube of finite length in a dimensionless form. The expressions of pressure gradient, volume flow rate, average volume flow rate and local wall shear stress have been obtained. The effects of the transverse magnetic field and electrical conductivity (i.e. the Hartmann number) on the mechanical efficiency of a peristaltic pump have also been studied. The reflux phenomenon is also investigated. It is concluded, on the basis of the pressure distribution along the tubular length and pumping efficiency, that if the transverse magnetic field and the electric conductivity increase, the pumping machinery exerts more pressure for pushing the fluid forward. There is a linear relation between the averaged flow rate and the pressure applied across one wavelength that can restrain the flow due to peristalsis. It is found that there is a particular value of the averaged flow rate corresponding to a particular pressure that does not depend on the Hartmann number. Naming these values ‘critical values’, it is concluded that the pressure required for checking the flow increases with the Hartmann number above the critical value and decreases with it below the critical value. It is also inferred that magneto-hydrodynamic parameters make the fluid more prone to flow reversal. The conclusion applied to oesophageal swallowing reveals that normal water is easier to swallow than saline water. The latter is more prone to flow reversal. A significant difference between the propagation of the integral and non-integral number of waves along the tube is that pressure peaks are identical in the former and different in the latter cases.

Reduce Development Time

Power generation cycle — typically Brayton cycle — to use CO2 at supercritical state as working fluid have been researched many years because this cycle increase thermal efficiency of cycle and decrease turbomachinery size. But small turbomachinery make it difficult to develop proto type Supercritical Carbon dioxide (S-CO2) cycle equipment of lab scale size. KIER (Korea Institute of Energy Research) have been researched S-CO2 cycle since 2013. This paper is about 60kWe scale and sub-kWe class turbo generator development for applying to this S-CO2 cycle at the lab scale. A design concept of this turbo-generator is to use commercially available components so as to reduce development time and increase reliability. Major problem of SCO2 turbine is small volume flow rate and huge axial force. High density S-CO2 was referred as advantage of S-CO2 cycle because it make small turbomachinery possible. But this advantage was not valid in lab-scale cycles under 100kW because small amount volume flow rate means high rotating speed and too small diameter of turbine to manufacture it. Also, high inlet and outlet pressure make huge axial force. To solve these problem, KIER have attempt various turbines. In this paper, these attempts and results are presented and discussed.

Air volume flow rate distribution of stator ducts along axial and circumferential for salient pole synchronous motor is strongly influenced by the air flow field in the air gap and rotor poles, which is completely different from the flow characteristics of non-salient pole motor and it directly relates to the peak temperature of stator bars and core and axial temperature difference which can affect the safety of the operation. A three-dimensional physical model of 1/8 motor was established and corresponding solution domain boundary conditions were given in this article. The air volume flow rate distribution of stator ducts along axial and circumferential was analyzed based on CFD. The study show that at the same position of the axial stator, the cooling air flow into stator ducts along the circumferential direction is uneven, the air volume flow rate distribution is largely influenced by rotor pole pieces, geometry and position of pole support block and rotor rotation direction.
