Simulations of the supersonic flow field inside and outside of the Laval nozzle with single hole and nine holes were carried out based on the computational fluid dynamics method. The effects of different standoff distance and particle diameter on impact velocity of Cu particle spraying from single hole and nine holes were investigated firstly. The results show that the particle velocity obtained with the nine holes nozzle is higher than that of the single hole nozzle under the same standoff distance, and the smaller the standoff distance, the higher the particle velocity may be obtained with the nine holes, and the higher particle velocity may be obtained with smaller particle diameter for particles with diameters of 1 ~ 15 μm. Furthermore the effects of different spraying pressure and temperature on particle velocity of Cu particle spraying from the nine holes nozzle were also studied. And the simulations indicate that the higher the spraying pressure and temperature may make the particle spraying with greater velocity.

Emitter Discharge

Four types of Super Typhoon drip emitter with trapezoidal channel were selected out for the investigation of the flow field of the channel, and the CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) method was applied to simulate the micro-field inside the channel. The simulation results showed that the emitter discharge of different turbulent model is 4%-14% bigger than that of the experimental results, the average discharge deviation of κ-ω and RSM model is 5, 4.5 respectively, but the solving efficiency of the κ-ω model is obviously higher than that of the RSM model.

A straight and an arc-shaped curtain are combined to enhance the aerodynamic performance of the Savonius wind rotor. The straight-arc curtain is placed in front of the Savonius wind rotor to reduce the negative moment on the convex blade and increase the positive moment on the concave blade. The static and dynamic performances of the Savonius wind rotor with and without the curtain are investigated based on the computational fluid dynamics method. The results show that the static torque is higher with the curtain than without it at the same angle-of-attack. The maximum mean power coefficient with the curtain is increased by about 50% compared with conventional Savonius wind rotor. Additionally, the flow field around the rotor with the straight-arc curtain is presented, and the flow control mechanics of the straight-arc curtain are discussed.

Ventilation Scheme

For the purpose of avoiding the deficiency of the traditional construction ventilation, the ventilation of the underground main powerhouse is simulated by the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to optimize ventilation parameters. A 3D unsteady RNG k-ε model is performed for construction ventilation in the underground main powerhouse. The air-flow field and CO diffusion in the main powerhouse are simulated and analyzed. The two construction ventilation schemes are modelled for the main powerhouse. The optimized ventilation scheme is obtained by comparing the air volume and pressure distributions of the different ventilation schemes.

Abstract Determining the proper installation location of flow meters is important for accurate measurement of discharge in sewer systems. In this study, flow field and flow regimes in two types of manholes under surcharged flow were investigated using a commercial computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code. The error in measuring the flow discharge using a Doppler flow meter (based on the velocity in a Doppler beam) was then estimated. The values of the corrective coefficient were obtained for the Doppler flow meter at different locations under various conditions. Suggestions for selecting installation positions are provided.

By using the computational fluid dynamics code, FLUENT, Numerically simulation is investigated for Youngshou power plant. Under the constant ambient temperature, the effects of different wind speed and wind direction on the thermal flow field are qualitatively considered. It was found that when considering about the existing and normally operating power plants, the thermal flow field is more sensitive to wind direction and wind speed. Based on the above results, three improved measures such as: increasing the wind-wall height and accelerating the rotational speed of the fans near the edge of the ACC platform and lengthen or widen the platform are developed to effectively improving the thermal flow field, and enhanced the heat dispersal of ACC.

The objective of this study is to develop a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) based methodology for analyzing and predicting leakage of worn or rub-intended labyrinth seals during operation. The simulations include intended tooth axial offset and numerical modeling of the flow field. The purpose is to predict total leakage through the seal when an axial tooth offset is provided after the intended/unintended rub. Results indicate that as expected, the leakage for the in-line worn land case (i.e. tooth under rub) is higher compared to unworn. Furthermore, the intended rotor/teeth forward axial offset/shift with respect to the rubbed land reduces the seal leakage. The overall leakage of a rubbed seal with axial tooth offset is observed to be considerably reduced, and it can become even less than a small clearance seal designed not to rub. The reduced leakage during steady state is due to a targeted smaller running gap because of tooth offset under the intended/worn land groove shape, higher blockages, higher turbulence and flow deflection as compared to worn seal model without axial tooth offset.
