in the course of expansion in turbines steam nucleates to become a two-phase mixture, the liquid consisting of a very large number of extremely small droplets carried by the vapor. formation and subsequent behaviour of the liquid lowers the performance of turbine wet stages. the calculations were carried out assuming that the flow is two dimensional, compressible, turbulent and viscous. a class...

Subcooled flow boiling in multi-microchannels can be used as an efficient thermal management approach in compact electrical devices. Highly subcooled flow boiling of HFE 7100 is studied in two microchannel heat sinks to choose a proper numerical model for simulating boiling flows in microchannels. Results of five different numerical models, including Volume of Fluid (VOF), Eulerian boiling, Eul...

in this paper, a cfd model of syngas flow in slurry bubble column was developed. the model is based on an eulerian-eulerian approach and includes three phases: slurry of solid particles suspended in paraffin oil and syngas bubbles. numerical calculations carried out for catalyst particles, bubble coalescence and breakup included bubble-fluid drag force and interfacial area effects. also, the ef...

The aim of this study was to investigate the particulate dispersion from Kerman Cement Plant. The upwind – downwind method was used to measure particle concentration and a cascade impactor was applied to determine particle size distribution. An Eulerian model, Gaussian plume model and an artificial neural network have been used to compute and predict concentration of PM10 from Ke...

In this research the separation efficiency of deoiling hydrocyclone is evaluated using three-dimensional simulation of multiphase flow based on Eulerian-Eulerian finite volume method. The mixture approach of Reynolds Stress Model is also employed to capture the features of turbulent multiphase swirling flow. The obtained separation efficiency of Colman's design is compared with available experi...

With the increase of computer power and advancement of modeling software, the study of turbulent gas-particle flow problems using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) techniques is gradually becoming attractive in the engineering field. Two basic CFD approaches are used to simulate the gas-particle flow, i.e. the Eulerian-Lagrangian model and the EulerianEulerian model. The aim of this thesis is ...
