Solid Transport

The transient flow conditions within a building drainage system may be simulated by the numerical solution of the defining equations of momentum and continuity, coupled to a knowledge of the boundary conditions representing either appliances discharging to the network or particular network terminations. While the fundamental mathematics has long been available, it is the availability of fast, affordable and accessible computing that has allowed the development of the simulations presented in this paper. A drainage system model for unsteady partially filled pipeflow will be presented in this paper. The model is capable of predicting flow depth and rate, and solid velocity, throughout a complex network. The ability of such models to assist in the decision making and design processes will be shown, particularly in such areas as appliance design and water conservation.

Local Flow

Two-phase flow widely exists in many industries. Understanding local characteristics of two-phase flow under different flow conditions in piping systems is important to design and optimize the industrial process for higher productivity and lower cost. Air–water two-phase flow experiments were conducted with a 16×16 conductivity wire-mesh sensor (WMS) in a horizontal pipe of a multiphase flow facility. The cross-sectional void fraction time series was analysed by the probability density function (PDF), which described the void fraction fluctuation at different flow conditions. The changes and causes of PDFs during a flow regime transition were analysed. The local structure and flow behaviour were characterized by the local flow spectrum energy analysis and the local void fraction distribution (horizontal, vertical and radial direction) analysis. Finally, three-dimensional transient flow fluctuation energy evolution and characteristic scale distribution based on wavelet analysis of air–water two-phase flow were presented, which revealed the structural features of each phase in two-phase flow.

In this work, the GERG-2004 equation of state based on a multi-fluid approximation explicit in the reduced Helmholtz energy is compared with the predictive Soave-Redlich-Kwong group contribution method. In the analysis, both equations of state are compared by simulating a non-isothermal transient flow of natural gas and mixed hydrogen-natural gas in pipelines. Besides the flow conditions also linepack-energy and energy consumption of the compressor station are computed. The gas flow is described by a set of partial differential equations resulting from the conservation of mass, momentum and energy. A pipeline section of the Yamal-Europe gas pipeline on Polish territory has been selected for the case study.
