Thermal impact of the parallel laying of gas and oil pipelines remains unclear though that of two oil pipelines has been relatively well studied. A numerical simulation method combined by finite volume and finite difference was used to investigate the complex heat transfer in three typical parallel laying patterns between gas and oil pipelines: hot oil pipeline with cold gas pipeline;cold oil pipeline with hot gas pipeline and hot oil pipeline with hot gas pipeline. In terms of these three different parallel laying cases, the present paper analyzed characteristics of the maximum differential temperature range and thermal distribution of oil/gas temperatures at different intervals along pipelines relative to the single laying. The numerical simulation results can provide some guidelines for designs and safe operations of the parallel laying of oil/gas pipelines.

Metal hydride represents a promising candidate for hydrogen storage, because the technique is essentially safe, compact and flexible. However, the properties of the metal hydride tend to change in repeated hydriding/dehydriding cycles, which will inevitably affect the performance of corresponding hydrogen storage system. The effect is investigated in this paper by numerical simulation using a commercial package COMSOL MULTIPHYSICS 3.5a, and a typical material- LaNi5 is chosen for discussion. Through sensitivity analysis, the influences of variation in key properties over repeated cycles on the charging time of a tank-type storage system, are evaluated and some useful conclusions are drawn.

In this paper, a coupling lattice Boltzmann (LB) model for simulating thermal flows on the standard two-dimensional nine-velocity (D2Q9) lattice is developed in the framework of the double-distribution-function (DDF) approach in which the viscous heat dissipation and compression work are considered. In the model, a density distribution function is used to simulate the flow field, while a total energy distribution function is employed to simulate the temperature field. The discrete equilibrium density and total energy distribution functions are obtained from the Hermite expansions of the corresponding continuous equilibrium distribution functions. The pressure given by the equation of state of perfect gases is recovered in the macroscopic momentum and energy equations. The coupling between the momentum and energy transports makes the model applicable for general thermal flows such as non-Boussinesq flows, while the existing DDF LB models on standard lattices are usually limited to Boussinesq flows in which the temperature variation is small. Meanwhile, the simple structure and general features of the DDF LB approach are retained. The model is tested by numerical simulations of thermal Couette flow, attenuation-driven acoustic streaming, and natural convection in a square cavity with small and large temperature differences. The numerical results are found to be in good agreement with the analytical solutions and/or other numerical results reported in the literature.

The existing lattice Boltzmann models for incompressible multiphaseflows are mostly constructed with two distribution functions: one is the order parameter distribution function, which is used to track the interface between different phases, and the other is the pressure distribution function for solving the velocity field. In this paper, it is shown that in these models the recovered momentum equation is inconsistent with the target one: an additional force is included in the recovered momentum equation. The additional force has the following features. First, it is proportional to the macroscopic velocity. Second, it is zero in every single-phase region but is nonzero in the interface. Therefore it can be interpreted as an interfacial force. To investigate the effects of the additional interfacial force, numerical simulations are carried out for the problem of Rayleigh-Taylor instability, droplet splashing on a thin liquid film, and the evolution of a falling droplet under gravity. Numerical results demonstrate that, with the increase of the velocity or the Reynolds number, the additional interfacial force will gradually have an important influence on the interface and affect the numerical accuracy.
