Abstract Because of external driving, dynamic pre-cyclone separators have excellent operational performances in areas of pressure vary occasionally. In this work, a numerical model of the dynamic separator been built and the flow field is thoroughly studied. The distribution results of angular velocity show that an appropriate structure of pre-cyclone vanes is of great importance to get a relative uniform flow angular velocity field. A novel structure of pre-cyclone vanes under different separation requirements is developed and verified by a number of experiments.

Groundwater Flow Field

Abstract Mine water inrush is one of the important factors threatening safe production in mines. The accurate understanding of the mine groundwater flow field can effectively reduce the hazards of mine water inrush. Numerical simulation is an important method to study the groundwater flow field. This paper numerically simulates the groundwater seepage field in the GaoSong ore field. In order to ensure the accuracy of the numerical model, the research team completed 3,724 field fissure measurements in the study area. The fracture measurement results were analyzed using the GEOFRAC method and the whole-area fracture network data were generated. On this basis, the rock mass permeability coefficient tensor of the aquifer in the study area was calculated. The tensor calculation results are used in the numerical model of groundwater flow. After calculation, the obtained numerical model can better represent the groundwater seepage field in the study area. In addition, we designed three different numerical models for calculation, mainly to explore the influence of the tensor assignment of permeability coefficient on the calculation results of water yield of the mine. The results showed that irrational fathom tensor assignment would cause a significant deviation in calculation results.

The upper bound of the average ram pressure, based on an assumed radial flow velocity field, is derived for plane strain extrusion. Ram pressures are calculated for a complete range of reduction ratios and die angles, considering a wide range of frictional conditions. Results are compared with upper-bound ram pressures obtained by considering velocity fields other than the radial flow field, and it is shown that for a considerable range of reduction ratios and die angles, the radial flow field yields better upper bounds for the average ram pressure.

Confined Flows

The development of transverse velocity profile is directly related to the development of secondary vorticity. In the internal aerodynamics case with potential external flow, although vorticity remains confined inside the viscous shear layer, secondary vorticity induced velocities exist outside of it. If the secondary vorticity field is known, the induced secondary velocity field is well approximated following Hawthorne’s classical analysis. In the present work, the above analysis is used to separate the velocity field in the transverse plane into a potential and a rotational part. In the case of confined flows, the rotational part is confined inside the viscous shear layer, while the potential part occupies the whole flow field. This last part is the consequence of the “displacement” effects of the shear layer in the transverse plane. Therefore, the present work allows a re-examination of the flow two-zone model (separation of the flow field in a viscous and an inviscid part) in confined flows. On the other hand, the limitations of Hawthorne’s theory are examined, while a parallel analysis is presented for the case where the secondary vorticity distribution varies not only along the blade height, but also circumferentially.

Solution Behaviour

The initial value problem for the two-dimensional inviscid vorticity equation, linearized about an azimuthal basic velocity field with monotonic angular velocity, is solved exactly for mode-one disturbances. The solution behaviour is investigated for large time using asymptotic methods. The circulation of the basic state is found to govern the ultimate fate of the disturbance: for basic state vorticity distributions with non-zero circulation, the perturbation tends to the steady solution first mentioned in Michalke & Timme (1967), while for zero circulation, the perturbation grows without bound. The latter case has potentially important implications for the stability of isolated eddies in geophysics.

In this paper we consider the flow field induced in an incompressible viscous conducting fluid in a hemispherical bowl by a symmetric discharge of electric current from a point source at the centre of the plane end of the hemisphere. This plane end is a free surface. We construct an analytic solution for the slow viscous flow and a numeriacl solution for the nonlinear problem. The streamlines in an axial cross-section form two sets of closed loops, one on either side of the axis. Our computations indicate that, for a given fluid, when the discharged current reaches a certain magnitude the velocity field breaks down. This breakdown probably originates at the vertex of the hemispherical container.

Moving Contact Lines

The dynamics of a spreading liquid body are dictated by the interface shape and flow field very near the moving contact line. The interface shape and flow field have been described by asymptotic models in the limit of small capillary number, Ca. Previous work established the validity and limitations of these models of the interface shape (Chen et al. 1995). Here, we study the flow field near the moving contact line. Using videomicroscopy, particle image velocimetry, and digital image analysis, we simultaneously make quantitative measurements of both the interface shape and flow field from 30 μm to a few hundred microns from the contact line. We compare our data to the modulated-wedge solution for the velocity field near a moving contact line (Cox 1986). The measured flow fields demonstrate quantitative agreement with predictions for Ca[les ]0.1, but deviations of ∼5% of the spreading velocity at Ca≈0.4. We observe that the interface shapes and flow fields become geometry independent near the contact line. Our experimental technique provides a way of measuring the interface shape and velocity field to be used as boundary conditions for numerical calculations of the macroscopic spreading dynamics.

AbstractSevere thunderstorms routinely exhibit adjacent maxima and minima in cloud-top vertical vorticity (CTV) downstream of overshooting tops within flow fields retrieved using sequences of fine-temporal resolution (1-min) geostationary operational environmental satellite (GOES)-R series imagery. Little is known about the origin of this so-called “CTV couplet” signature, and whether the signature is the result of flow field derivational artifacts. Thus, the CTV signature’s relevance to research and operations is currently ambiguous. Within this study, we explore the origin of near-cloud-top rotation using an idealized supercell numerical model simulation. Employing an advanced dense optical flow algorithm, image stereoscopy, and numerical model background wind approximations, the artifacts common with cloud-top flow field derivation are removed from two supercell case studies sampled by GOES-R imagers. It is demonstrated that the CTV couplet originates from tilted and converged horizontal vorticity that is baroclinically generated in the upper levels (above 10 km) immediately downstream of the overshooting top. This baroclinic generation would not be possible without a strong and sustained updraft, implying an indirect relationship to rotationally-maintained supercells. Furthermore, it is demonstrated that CTV couplets derived with optical flow algorithms originate from actual rotation within the storm anvils in the case studies explored here, though supercells with opaque above anvil cirrus plumes and strong anvil-level negative vertical wind shear may produce rotation signals as an artifact without quality control. Artifact identification and quality control is discussed further here for future research and operations use.
