In order to enhance the operational safety of tram vehicle and reduce the wear of guide wheels mounted on the vehicle, it is necessary to remove particles such as dusts and silts from tramway surface. The aim of this paper is to evaluate the effectiveness of street vacuum sweeper for sucking up dusts from tramway surface. A numerical model was developed based on dusts removal process. Under different pressure drops across the pickup head of the street vacuum sweeper, the flow field and dusts removal efficiency were analyzed with computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method. The numerical results show that a higher pressure drop can improve the airflow field in the pickup head and results in higher dusts removal efficiency, but higher pressure drop definitely need more energy. Therefore, a balance should be taken into consideration.

AbstractNumerical simulation using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) method is one way of predicting airflow characteristics on the model. This method is widely used because it is relatively inexpensive and faster in getting desired results compared with performing direct testing. The correctness of a computational simulation output is highly dependent on the input and how it was processed. In this paper, simulation is done on Onera M6 Wing, to investigate the effect of a turbulence model’s application on the accuracy of the computational result. The choice of Onera M6 Wing as a simulation’s model is due to its extensive database of testing results from various wind tunnels in the world. Among Turbulence models used are Spalart-Allmaras, K-Epsilon, K-Omega, and SST.Keywords: CFD, fluent, Model, Turbulence, Onera M6, Spalart-Allmaras, K-Epsilon, K-Omega, SST.AbstraksSimulasi numerik dengan menggunakan metode Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) merupakan salah satu cara untuk memprediksi karakteristik suatu aliran udara yang terjadi pada model.

In this article, computational fluid dynamics(CFD) method is used to predict the effect of blade numbers on the pressure drop of axial cyclone separators. A three-dimensional model is built to acquire the resistance of axial cyclone separators with different blade numbers. The flow field inside cyclone separators is calculated using 3D Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations. And turbulence model is used to simulate the Reynold stress. Also pressure drop of cyclone separators with different blade numbers is expressed as a function of different inlet velocities. At the same inlet velocity with increasing the blade numbers, pressure drops of cyclones reduce greatly. And changing the blade number of cyclone separator is an effective method to improve its resistance performance.

This paper presents flow simulations in packed beds by a coupled discrete element method (DEM) and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) approach. The realistic packing structure in packed beds is generated by DEM. Then the packing structure is imported into the CFD preprocessor to generate a mesh for flow simulations in packed beds. The subsequent CFD simulations are carried out. The predicted results reveal that not only the local behavior but also macroscopic quantities like the pressure drop depend remarkably on the local packing structural parameters, which is unable to be taken into account when using correlations with averaged values.

A crack with unusual failure mode after thermal shock test (TST) is observed on the die bulk of certain bare-die FCBGA, in which the crack penetrates longitudinally within silicon die region. The computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method is introduced to investigate this phenomenon. The transient analysis results indicate a significant temperature difference existing between top and bottom surfaces of the silicon die in the very beginning of the liquid-to-liquid temperature transition. This could be fatal to a brittle material like silicon. Some possible solutions are then surveyed to alleviate the thermal impact to the FCBGA. At least one of enhanced proposals is proved effective to eliminate die crack occurrence after TST.
