Investigating to Cavitation Behavior of Orifice Tunnel
نویسندگان
چکیده
Strong velocity scale effect on cavitation for orifice tunnels was revealed through comparing the results of model tests in vacuum tanks and that of prototype measurements at construction site. A new formula predicting incipient cavitation number of orifice rings is presented in this paper. The predicted data for the prototype scale are coincident well with the prototype measured one.

Investigation the effects of injection pressure and compressibility and nozzle entry in diesel injector nozzle’s flow
Investigating nozzle’s orifice flow is challenging both experimentally and theoretically. This paper focuses on simulating flow inside diesel injector nozzle via Ansys fluent v15. Validation is performed with experimental results from Winkhofler et al (2001). Several important parameters such as mass flow rate, velocity profiles and pressure profiles are used for this validation. Results includ...
متن کاملCavitation Inception Witnessed by Sound Pressure Level Both in Model Test and Prototype Observation
Abstract The paper concerns with the relationship between cavitation inception бi and sound pressure level (SPL). A case study of Xiaolangdi Hydro-project has been taken as a typical example, which demonstrates the standard criterion of SPL indicating cavitation inception. Cavitation inception of an orifice plate used for energy dissipation in a tunnel spillway has been witnessed and verified b...

Surface-Piercing Propellers (SPPs) have been widely used in high speed craft due to some desirable features such as high efficiency, omission of resistance of equipment attached to the propeller and proper functioning of cavitation. Unlike the submerged propellers, theoretical methods have no significant application on simulation of SPPsbecause of problems related to modeling of these propeller...
متن کاملInfluence of nozzle geometry and injection conditions on the cavitation flow inside a diesel injector
Cavitation and turbulence in a diesel injector nozzle has a great effect on the development and primary breakup of spray. However, the mechanism of the cavitation flow inside the nozzle and its influence on spray characteristics have not been clearly known yet because of the internal nozzle flow complexities. In this paper, a comprehensive numerical simulation is carried out to study the intern...
متن کاملInfluence of cavitation and high shear stress on HSA aggregation behavior
Neither the influence of high shear rates nor the impact of cavitation on protein aggregation is fully understood. The effect of cavitation bubble collapse-derived hydroxyl radicals on the aggregation behavior of human serum albumin (HSA) was investigated. Radicals were generated by pumping through a micro-orifice, ultra-sonication, or chemically by Fenton's reaction. The amount of radicals pro...
