Visual Observation of Flow Regime Transition in Downward Vertical Gas-Liquid Flow Using Simple Mixer
Different flow patterns of downward gas-liquid two-phaseflow using simple mixer are studied in an experimental manner. An experimental setup is designed and fabricated to allow the visual observation of downward two-phase flow patterns and their transitions. The flow patterns are recorded by a 1200 frames per second high speed video camera. The quality of downward two-phase flow patterns photos...
متن کاملModification on Cavitating Inducer Performance
This paper explores the effect of inlet flow modifcation on the cavitating and noncavitating performance of two cavitating inducers, one of simple helical design and the other a model of the low-pressure LOX pump in the Space Shuttle Main Engine. The modifications were generated by sections of honeycomb, both uniform and nonuniform. Signifcant improvement in the performance over a wide range of...
متن کاملSurrogate-Based Modeling of Cryogenic Turbulent Cavitating Flows
The cryogenic cavitation has critical implications on the performance and safety of liquid rocket engines. In this study, a systematic investigation based on the surrogate modeling techniques is conducted to assess and improve the performance of a transport-based cryogenic cavitation model. Based on the surrogate model, global sensitivity analysis is be conducted to assess the role of model par...
متن کاملFlow Instabilities in Cavitating and Non-Cavitating Pumps
It is well known that flow instabilities called rotating stall and surge may occur in non-cavitating turbomachines at flow rates smaller than design. Rotating stall is a local instability at the turbomachinery which is basically not dependent on the hydraulic system in which the turbomachine is installed. The stalled region rotates faster than impeller. Surge is a system instability in a hydrau...
متن کاملInfluence of Afterbody and Boundary Layer on Cavitating Flow
The characteristics of a cavitation water tunnel test setup and the experiments of cavitation around different models are given in this paper. Models of test are formed from combination of head and variable length afterbody. The experiments are performed initially with the smooth head and then with the roughened head. Cavitation initiates both in the wake and after the head. If the nose of mode...
