چکیده مقاله:

This paper deals with numerical study of semi-finite incompressible flow of air over two blocks with different heights in the presence of a condensing-source, dispensing- contaminant in the flow, in both steady and unsteady states. The numerical solution of governing PDE equations are constructed by a finite-volume method applied on structured grid arrangement. The effects of air flow velocity, contaminant source length and position, and the blocks height ratio on the concentration distribution, the mass transfer level and the time of transportation are studied. The results indicate that by increasing the inflow Reynolds number, the amount of contamination reaching the blocks and also the amount remaining between them decrease, while the mass transfer rate increases. It is shown that the closer the contaminant source to the blocks, the higher the mean concentration accumulating between the two blocks. It is also found that increasing the blocks height ratio makes an ascending trend to the time for the arrival of contaminant to the blocks walls, though the slopes of time-lines are different for each case.

A Three-dimensional Numerical Modeling of Contaminant Dispersion from Arvand Rood River into the Persian Gulf

The Persian Gulf is an important economic and geo-political region. Owing to its oil and gas resources, it is one of the busiest waterways in the world. There are many operating oil wells in the northern part of the Persian Gulf . As a result, the risk of contaminant dispersion is high. The deliberate discharge of 6.3 million barrels of crude oil during the 1991 war against Kuwait in this regio...

A Numerical Investigation of Unsteady Bubbly Cavitating Nozzle Flows

The effects of unsteady bubble dynamics on cavitating flow through a converging-diverging nozzle are investigated numerically. A continuum model that couples the Rayleigh–Plesset equation with the continuity and momentum equations is used to formulate unsteady, quasi-one-dimensional partial differential equations. Flow regimes studied include those where steady-state solutions exist, and those ...

Thin front propagation in steady and unsteady cellular flows

Front propagation in two-dimensional steady and unsteady cellular flows is investigated in the limit of very fast reaction and sharp front, i.e., in the geometrical optics limit. For the steady flow, a simplified model allows for an analytical prediction of the front speed v f dependence on the stirring intensity U , which is in good agreement with numerical estimates. In particular, at large U...
