Based on the physical model of the Ranque effect, proposed earlier, a simplified mathematical model of the working process of a vortex tube is compiled taking into account the exchange of work and heat during the interaction of peripheral and axial gas flows. The effect of viscosity and angular velocity gradient on the transfer of kinetic energy from the axis to the periphery is shown. The difference in thermodynamic temperatures when heat is supplied from the periphery to the axis is taken into account, which leads to a decrease in the cooling efficiency of the axial gas flow. Energy exchange is based on the assumption that the peripheral gas layers are compressed by the axial flow. The axial flow work is determined by the pressure difference between the valve and the outlet of the diaphragm

In order to study the internal gas flow of Y type branch pipes in the exhaust ventilation conditions, the branch pipe is simulated by using FLUENT software. Combined with experimental results, comparatively analyze exhaust ventilation pressure, velocity and vortex flow of the branch pipe. The results show that simulation and experimental data consistent overall trend, the difference is less than 8%, the main entrance pressure of the branch pipeline decreases with the width of the leakage increasing, leakage width of 0 mm, 1 mm, 2 mm cases, there is vortex tube, and valve and the main ventilation pipe case gas exchange occurs when no leakage, this study provides a theoretical and practical basis for further analysis of branch pipe exhaust ventilation.

The outlet conduit is an important construction connecting the outlet of the pump guide vane and the outlet pool; in order to study the hydraulic performance of the straight outlet conduit of the axial-flow pump device, this paper adopts the method of numerical simulation and analyzes the influence of the division pier on the pressure and velocity distribution inside and near the wall of the straight outlet conduit based on three design schemes. Four pressure pulsation measuring points were arranged in the straight outlet conduit, and the low-frequency pulsation characteristic information inside the straight outlet conduit with and without the division pier was extracted by wavelet packet reconstruction. The results show that the addition of a division pier has an effect on the hydraulic loss, near-wall pressure and velocity distribution in the straight outlet conduit. A small high-pressure zone is formed near the wall at the starting position of the division pier, and a large high-speed zone is formed on the left side at the starting position of the division pier. The length of the division pier has no significant effect on the flow distribution of the straight outlet conduit and the pressure and velocity distribution near the wall. Under different working conditions, each monitoring point has the maximum energy in the sub-band (0~31.25 Hz). With the increase of the flow rate, the total pressure energy of the straight outlet conduit decreases gradually. Under each condition, the difference of the energy proportion of the horizontal monitoring points of the straight outlet conduit is small, and the difference of the energy proportion of the two monitoring points at the top and bottom of the outlet channel is relatively large. The energy of the two monitoring points in the straight outlet conduit with a division pier is smaller than that of the two monitoring points in the straight outlet conduit without a division pier. There are differences in the main frequency and the power spectrum corresponding to the main frequency of the monitoring points in the straight outlet conduit, and the reasonable setting of the division pier is conducive to reducing the pressure pulsation of the flow in the straight outlet conduit and is beneficial to the safe and stable operation of the pump device.

Results from experiments conducted in downward liquid-gas flows in inclined, eccentric annular pipes, with water and air as the working fluids, are presented. The gas was injected in the middle of the test section length. The operating window, in terms of liquid and gas superficial velocities, within which countercurrent gas flow occurs at two low-dip angles, has been determined experimentally. The countercurrent flow observed was in the slug regime, while the co-current one was stratified. Countercurrent flow fraction and void fraction measurements were carried out at various liquid superficial velocities and gas injection rates and correlated to visual observations through a full-scale transparent test section. Our results indicate that countercurrent flow can be easily generated at small downward dip angles, within the practical range of liquid superficial velocity for drilling operations. Such flow is also favored by low gas injection rates.

We have improved the well-known Czochralski single crystal silicon growth method by using two argon gas flows. One flow is the main one (15–20 nl/min) and is directed from top to bottom along the growing single crystal. This flow entrains reaction products of melt and quartz crucible (mainly SiO), removes them from the growth chamber through a port in the bottom of the chamber and provides for the growth of dislocation-free single crystals from large weight charge. Similar processes are well known and have been generally used since the 1970s world over. The second additional gas flow (1.5–2 nl/min) is directed at a 45 arc deg angle to the melt surface in the form of jets emitted from circularly arranged nozzles. This second gas flow initiates the formation of a turbulent melt flow region which separates the crystallization front from oxygen-rich convective flows and accelerates carbon evaporation from the melt. It has been confirmed that oxygen evaporated from the melt (in the form of SiO) acts as transport agent for nonvolatile carbon. Commercial process implementation has shown that carbon content in as-grown single crystals can be reduced to below the carbon content in the charge. Single crystals grown with two argon gas flows have also proven to have highly macro- and micro-homogeneous oxygen distributions, with much greater lengths of single crystal portions in which the oxygen concentration is constant and below the preset limit. Carbon contents of 5–10 times lower than carbon content in the charge can be achieved with low argon gas consumption per one growth process (15–20 nl/min vs 50–80 nl/min for conventional processes). The use of an additional argon gas flow with a 10 times lower flowrate than that of the main flow does not distort the pattern of main (axial) flow circumvention around single crystal surface, does not hamper the “dislocation-free growth” of crystals and does not increase the density of microdefects. This suggests that the new method does not change temperature gradients and does not produce thermal shocks that may generate thermal stresses in single crystals.

Abstract A prototype of a single-gap glass Resistive Plate Chamber (RPC) is constructed by the authors. To find the requirements for better operation of the detector's gas system, we have simulated the flow of the Argon gas through the detector by using computational fluid dynamic methods. Simulations show that the pressure inside the chamber linearly depends on the gas flow rate and the chamber's output hose length. The simulation results were compatible with experiments. We have found that the pressure-driven speed of the gas molecules is two orders of magnitude larger in the inlet and outlet regions than the blocked corners of a 14 × 14 cm2 chamber, and most likely the difference in speed is higher for larger detectors and different geometries.
