Dynamics of crater formations in immersed granular materials.

چکیده
We report the formation of a crater at the free surface of an immersed granular bed, locally crossed by an ascending gas flow. In two dimensions, the crater consists of two piles which develop around the location of the gas emission. We observe that the typical size of the crater increases logarithmically with time, independently of the gas emission dynamics. We describe the related granular flows and give an account of the influence of the experimental parameters, especially of the grain size and of the gas flow.

CFD Modeling of the Feed Distribution System of a Gas-Solid Reactor
Granular flow simulation using CFD has received a lot of attention in recent years. In such cases, CFD is either, coupled with Discrete Element Method (DEM) techniques for appropriate incorporation of inter-particle collisions, or the Eulerian CFD approach is used in which granular particles are treated as they were fluid. In the present study, a CFD analysis was performed...
متن کاملPreliminary Assessment of the Morphometry of Martian Impact Crater Ejecta Deposits and their Implications,
We are continuing characterization of the geometry of flow-related features of the fluidized ejecta of fresh Martian craters to be used in concert with dynamical models of granular flow as a basis for developing new models and testing current models of fluidized ejecta emplacement. Granular flow studies have shown great promise for understanding the causes of ejecta flow on Mars [1, 2] because ...
متن کاملModelling of the Dynamics of an immersed body in a microchannel with stenosis using the immersed boundary method
In the present study, the combination of lattice Boltzmann and immersed boundary methods is used to simulate the motion and deformation of a flexible body. Deformation of the body is studied in microchannel with stenosis and the effect of the flexibility changes on its deformation is investigated. The obtained results in the present manuscript show that by increasing the elasticity modulus, the...
متن کاملThe granular mixing in a slurry rotating drum
The mixing dynamics of granular materials immersed in a liquid was experimentally studied in a quasi-2D rotating drum. A DV (SONY DCR-TRV900 NTSC) motion corder analyzer was used to record the motions of granular materials. The effects of interstitial fluid viscosity and filling degree on the mixing index, mixing rate constant, and dynamic repose angle in the rotating drum were investigated and...
متن کاملFlowers in flour: avalanches in cohesive granular matter.
We report on the intermittent dynamics of the free surface of a cohesive granular material during a silo discharge. In absence of cohesion, one observes the formation and the growth of a conical crater whose angle is well defined and constant in time. When the cohesion is involved the free surface exhibits a complex dynamics and the crater, resulting from a series of individual avalanches, is n...
