The present work is to investigate the transient three-dimensional heated turbulent jet into crossflow in a thickwall T-junction pipe using CFD package. Two cases with the jet-to-crossflow velocity ratio of 0.05 and 0.5 are computed, with a finite-volume method utilizing κ-ε model. Comparison of the steady-state computations with measured data shows good qualitative agreement. Transient process of injection is simulated to examine the thermal shock on the T-junction component. Temporal temperature of the component is acquired by thermal coupling with the fluid. Via analysis of the flow and thermal characteristics, factors causing the thermal shock are studied. Optimal flow rates are discussed to reduce the thermal shock.

A fully elliptic numerical study has been carried out to investigate the three-dimensional turbulent developing flow in a helical square duct with large curvature. A two-layer zonal model is proposed and used, in which the whole region is divided into a viscosity-affected near wall layer and a fully turbulent region. A DSM closure is applied in the former, and a one-equation model is solved in the latter. The results presented in this paper cover a Reynolds number range of (l- 10) x 104. The development of flow is found to be dominated by radial pressure gradient and Dean-type secondary motion. The distribution of Reynolds stresses in fully developed flow exhibit a complex pattern of turbulence anisotropy The development of peripherally averaged friction factor and the distribution of local friction factor in fully developed flow are given and discussed.

In order to investigate the effect of inclination angle on the spatial distribution of phases, experiments on gas-liquid two-phase slug flow in an inclined pipe were carried out by using the optical probe and an EKTAPRO 1000 high speed motion analyzer. It has been demonstrated that the inclination angle and the mixture velocity are important parameters to influence the distribution of void fraction for upward slug flow in the inclined pipe. At high mixture velocity, the gas phase profile is axial symmetry in the cross-section of the pipe. This is similar to that for vertical slug flow. In contrast, most of the gas phase is located near the upper pipe wall at low mixture velocity. By measuring the axial variation of void fraction along the liquid slug, it can be concluded that there is a high void fraction wake region with length of 3~4D in the front of liquid slug. In the fully developed zone of liquid slug, the peak value of the void fraction is near the upper wall.

The Reynolds stress transport equation model (DSM) is used to predict the strongly swirling turbulent flows in a liquid-liquid hydrocyclone, and the predictions are compared with LDV measurements . Predictions properly give the flow behavior observed in experiments, such as the Rankine-vortex structure and double peaks near the inlet region in tangential velocity profile, the downward flow near the wall and upward flow near the core in axial velocity profiles. In the inlet or upstream region of the hydrocyclone, the reverse flow near the axis is well predicted, but in the region with smaller cone angle and cylindrical section, there are some discrepancies between the model predictions and the LDV measurements. Predictions show that the pressure is small in the near-axis region and increases to the maximum near the wall. Both predictions and measurements indicate that the turbulence in hydrocy-clones is inhomogeneous and anisotropic.

详细信息
The mechanism for transporting liquid from the bottom of the pipe to the top still to be established in the prediction of the film thickness distribution in horizontal annular two-phase flow. To resolve this issue, using five parallel-wire conductance probes, time records of local liquid film thickness at five circumferential positions were collected. The characteristics of circumferential liquid film thickness profiles and its variation with gas and liquid velocities were obtained. The basic features of probability distribution function, probability density function, auto-correlation, cross-correlation and power spectrum density function of the disturbance waves in angular flow were studied respectively. The characteristics of circumferential profiles of disturbance waves and its variation with gas and liquid velocities were presented.

An experiment has been conducted in detail to study the turbulent heat transfer in horizontal helically coiled tubes over a wide range of experimental parameters. We found that the enhancement of heat transfer in the coils results from the effects of turbulent and secondary flows. With Reynolds number increasing to a high level, the contribution of the secondary flow becomes less to enhance heat transfer, and the average heat transfer coefficient of the coil is closer to that in straight tubes under the same conditions. The local heat transfer coefficients are not evenly distributed along both the tube axis and the periphery on the cross section. The local heat transfer coefficients on the outside are three or four times those on the inside, which is half of the average heat transfer. A correlation is proposed to describe the distribution of the heat transfer coefficients at a cross section. The average cross-section heat transfer coefficients are distributed along the tube axis. The average value at the outlet section should not be taken as the average heat transfer coefficient.

The study of the interfacial waves is very important in understanding and grasping the laws of the phase interface exchange dynamics in gas-liquid two-phase flow. Based on a series of experiments and investigations, the statistical characteristics of the interfacial waves in gas-liquid two-phase stratified flow in both time and frequency domains are presented. The statistical parameters with variations of the gas and liquid superficial velocities are analyzed and discussed.
