Falling-sill bottom-flow dissipation is an important energy dissipater way, which has two fluent characteristics, spatial 3D hydraulic jump and submerge jet. But the turbulent motion is strong with a flow pattern of complex level. It is hard to detail the hydraulic characteristics and strength being inside of the plunge pool using physical experiments. However, numerical simulation can match the deficiency of physical model, which has the access to detail flow field hydraulic characteristics and provide a strong scientific basis on analyzing the hydrodynamic and hydraulic characteristics of plunge pool. In this paper, XJB project is taken for example, gas-liquid two-phase flow tracking the simulation free surface of VOF model was used. The RNG κ_ε turbulent motion model is adequate to simulate the 3D flow field in plunge pool. The result shows that the consequence of numerical simulation and physic test match well, which can reflect the plunge pool hydraulic characteristics and dissipation process accurately. The distribution of flow speed inside the plunge pool locates the position of main flow and reflects the velocity decay along the way and reflux flow vortex .

Calculation fluid dynamics software Fluent was used to conduct three-dimensional numerical simulation on gas-liquid two-phase flow field in a wet flue gas desulfurization scrubber. The k-ε model and SIMPLE computing were adopted in the analysis. The numerical simulation results show that the different gas entrance angles lead to internal changes of gas-liquid two-phase flow field, which provides references for reasonable parameter design of entrance angle in the scrubber.

In this paper, we use two-phase mixture model and the Realizable k-ε turbulence model to numerically simulate the advection secondary flow in a sedimentation tank. The PISO algorithm is used to decouple velocity and pressure. The comparisons between the measured and computed data are in good agreement, which indicates that the model can fully simulate the flow field in a sedimentation tank.

In this paper, a computational fluid dynamics–discrete element method (CFD–DEM) coupling method is established to simulate the starch granule injection by coupling CFD and DEM. Then a gas–solid two-phase pulsed jet system is designed to capture the flow field trajectory of particle injection (colored starch with a mean diameter of 10.67 [Formula: see text]m), and the image is processed by color moment and histogram. Finally, the simulation results are compared with the experimental results, and the following conclusions are drawn. The numerical simulation results show that with the increase of injection pressure, the injection height increases gradually. When the injection pressure reaches above 0.4 MPa, the increase of injection height decreases. The experimental images show that the larger the pressure (i.e., the greater the initial velocity), the faster the velocity of particle distribution in the space, and the injection heights with the injection pressures of 0.4 MPa and 0.5 MPa are close, which is consistent with the result from the FLUENT numerical simulation based on CFD–DEM.

To research the reasons for the unsatisfactory hydraulic conditions of the reciprocating baffled flocculation tank, this paper investigates its flow field through PIV (Particle Image Velocimetry) laboratory experiment tests and numerical simulation. Three numerical schemes, the standard model, RNG model and realizable model, are calibrated and validated with the experimental data gained in this study. They are adopted for comparative study of their validity and accuracy for modeling the effect of the hydraulic characteristics of the flow field on flocculation. The best validated model is then applied to explain the reasons for the low flocculation efficiency and is applied to improve the structure of the reciprocating baffled flocculation tank.

The piped hydraulic transportation of tube-contained raw material is a new long- distance transportation technology. This technology has the advantages of high efficiency, energy savings and environmental protection. The research in the published literature has mostly been limited to the speed, flow field, pressure field and energy consumption of a single-pipe vehicle. With the continuous improvement and development of this technology, two-pipe vehicles will become the focus of future research. The change of the vehicle spacing will affect the starting speed, flow field distribution and pressure drop characteristics of the water flow within the pipeline; thus, a numerical simulation is used in this work to study the hydraulic characteristics of stationary two-pipe vehicles under different spacings and compare them with physical experiments. The results show that the simulation results are in good agreement with the experimental results, which indicates that it is feasible to study two-pipe vehicles using numerical simulation. The results also show that, as the vehicle spacing increases, the interaction between the two-pipe vehicles gradually weakens. When the vehicle spacing reaches 4 l (where l represents the length of a single-pipe vehicle), the interaction between the two-pipe vehicles becomes negligible. There is no vortex shedding in the pipeline under different vehicle spacings. This study provides a reference for choosing the proper spacing between two-pipe vehicles and provides a theoretical basis for further research on the hydraulic characteristics of two-pipe vehicles in motion.

In order to research the effects of digital micro droplet injected by the piezoelectric ceramic inertial driver, the calculation model of micro flow field of micro injector was established based on the VOF model of multiphase flow. The calculation selected the implicit segregated solver and the standard k-e model was used in turbulence of the micro-nozzle. The governing equation was separated in first order upwind, and solved by PISO algorithm. The flow pattern of the micro channel fluid and the dynamic evolution process of the micro droplet generation in the plus wave driving were researched.
