Influence of a Plenum Box Design on Uniformity of the Radial Air Jet Issuing From a Vortex Diffuser
نویسنده
چکیده
Preliminary note Uniformity of the radial air jet issuing from the ceiling vortex diffuser with side entry plenum box was investigated experimentally. Two different cases of diffuser plenum box design were used: plenum box with perforated plate and plenum box without perforated plate. Air jet velocities were measured under isothermal conditions circumferentially around a diffuser. It was found that the jets in both cases were radially asymmetric. A simple method of quantifying radial asymmetry of the jet was proposed and used to compare two cases. Analysis showed that the jet issuing from the diffuser with plenum box that has a perforated plate is somewhat more symmetric.

Propane combustion in a trapped vortex combustor (TVC) is characterized via large eddy simulation coupled with filtered mass density function. A computational algorithm based on high order finite difference (FD) schemes, is employed to solve the Eulerian filtered compressible Navier-Stokes equations. In contrast, a Lagrangian Monte-Carlo solver based on the filtered mass density function is inv...

متن کاملImproving Cyclone Efficiency by Recycle and Jet Impingement Streams
In this paper a new process is presented for improving efficiency of cyclone de-dusting systems. The cyclone is coupled with a specially designed cylindrical chamber which includes a rotating tube inside it with air impinging nuzzles, drilled on the peripheral surface of the tube. The nuzzles help in pushing and throwing the particles to the outer radius distances during downward flow of du...
