Large eddy simulation of flow field in thermal vapor compressor

نویسندگان

چکیده

In the low-temperature multi-effect evaporation (LT-MEE) desalination plant, improving performance of thermal vapor compressor (TVC) could reduce energy loss, and increase gained output ratio (GOR) consequently improve system economy efficiency. Implementing large eddy simulation (LES) as numerical method, a 3-D computational fluid dynamics model TVC is established to simulate flow field under various conditions. The effects motive steam pressure on field, vortex core, turbulent viscosity iso-surface are discussed, corresponding interior distribution obtained well. Q criterion normalized applied visualize cores iso-surfaces. distributions vortexes in different scales displayed, large-scale mainly distributed exit area nozzle, constant section mixing chamber diffuser. Additionally, primarily located along axis morphology while small-scale ones randomly near wall.

Large-eddy simulation of a compressor rotor

Wall-modeled large-eddy simulation is applied to a transonic axial compressor rotor (NASA Rotor 37). The simulation results show a significant improvement over fully turbulent RANS in the prediction of the overall performance, mainly by capturing boundary layer transition on the blade. Sensitivity of the result to the end-wall boundary conditions (isothermal/adiabatic walls) and the inflow prof...

Aerodynamic Noise Computation of the Flow Field around NACA 0012 Airfoil Using Large Eddy Simulation and Acoustic Analogy

The current study presents the results of the aerodynamic noise prediction of the flow field around a NACA 0012 airfoil at a chord-based Reynolds number of 100,000 and at 8.4 degree angle of attack. An incompressible Large Eddy Simulation (LES) turbulence model is applied to obtain the instantaneous turbulent flow field. The noise prediction is performed by the Ffowcs Williams and Hawkings (FW-...

Large-eddy simulation of the flow in a low-speed centrifugal compressor

The results of a series of numerical simulations for the NASA low-speed centrifugal compressor are presented. Large-eddy simulation (LES) is carried out together with the most commonly used Reynoldsaveraged Navier–Stokes (RANS) models, including the mixing length, k– and k– models. Predictions are compared with the available experimental data. It is seen that quantitative predictions of LES are...
