Physical Modelling of Self-Aeration in a Cavitating Sudden PIPE Expansion Flow
Sudden pipe expansions have been known as efficient hydraulic energy dissipaters for a long time. The complex phenomenon of flow separation and velocity discontinuity at the interface of incoming jet and the recirculation flow, results in intensive shear and tensile rupture of the fluid and the associated destructive phenomenon of cavitation. This paper focuses on aeration in sudden pipe expans...
متن کاملFinite Element Approximation of Steady Flows of Incompressible Fluids with Implicit Power-Law-Like Rheology
We develop the analysis of finite element approximations of implicit power-law-like models for viscous incompressible fluids. The Cauchy stress and the symmetric part of the velocity gradient in the class of models under consideration are related by a, possibly multi–valued, maximal monotone r-graph, with 1 r 8. Using a variety of weak compactness techniques, including Chacon’s biting lemma...
متن کاملTurbulent flow through a plane sudden expansion
The results are reported of an experimental investigation of turbulent flow through a plane sudden expansion of expansion ratio R=D/d=4 and aspect ratio A= w/h=5.33. It is well known that plane sudden expansions with R greater than 1.5 produce asymmetric flows and this was again seen in this study. The literature for the asymmetric situation (R>1.5) is surprisingly limited and only axial veloci...
متن کاملOn steady flows of an incompressible fluids with implicit power-law-like rheology∗
We consider steady flows of incompressible fluids with power-law-like rheology given by an implicit constitutive equation relating the Cauchy stress and the symmetric part of the velocity gradient in such a way that it leads to a maximal monotone (possibly multivalued) graph. Such a framework includes Bingham fluids, Herschel-Bulkley fluids, and shear-rate dependent fluids with discontinuous vi...
متن کاملAsymmetric flows of viscoelastic fluids in symmetric planar expansion geometries
The flow of viscoelastic liquids with constant shear viscosity through symmetric sudden expansions is studied by numerical means. The geometry considered is planar and the constitutive model follows the modified FENE-CR equation, valid for relative dilute solutions of polymeric fluids. For Newtonian liquids in a 1:3 expansion we predict the result that the flow becomes asymmetric for a Reynolds...
