Flow Changes

This paper presents a numerical study of gas flow in a square cyclone separator with a double inlet. The turbulence of gas flow is computed by the use of the Reynolds stress model. The distribution of the flow field and pressure drop under different constructional details, which include changes of the shape, size and arrangement of the vortex finder are obtained. The computed results in the distributions of pressure in different sections are verified by comparison with those measured. We found that the center of the flow field is nearly on the geometric center of the cyclone. The flow fields show a feature of Rankine eddy, i.e., a strongly swirling region in the central part and a pseudo-free eddy region of weak swirling intensity near the cyclone wall. Local vortex exists at the corners where the flow changes their direction sharply, but it is less chaotic than in the general square cyclone with a single inlet. The flow field away from the outlet of the vortex finder is different from the Rankine eddy. The pressure-drop increases rapidly with the increase of the inlet velocity, and the pressure-drop increases with the decrease of the diameter of vortex finder and the increase of length of the vortex finder. The calculat ed results of this paper provide some guidance for the optimization of the square cyclone separator structure.

Transfer Flow

The problem of combined free-forced convection and mass transfer flow over a vertical porous flat plate, in presence of heat generation and thermaldiffusion, is studied numerically. The non-linear partial differential equations and their boundary conditions, describing the problem under consideration, are transformed into a system of ordinary differential equations by using usual similarity transformations. This system is solved numerically by applying Nachtsheim-Swigert shooting iteration technique together with Runge-Kutta sixth order integration scheme. The effects of suction parameter, heat generation parameter and Soret number are examined on the flow field of a hydrogen-air mixture as a non-chemical reacting fluid pair. The analysis of the obtained results showed that the flow field is significantly influenced by these parameters.
