For systematic investigations of installation effects and for finding efficient ways to minimise these effects, a research project was initiated at the PTB. It covers the design of an automated test facility using a laser Doppler anemometer, the measurement of velocity profiles downstream of several pipe configurations and flow conditioners, as well as the measurement of the change in the gas meter behaviour, namely the shift of the error curve due to the disturbed velocity profiles. Part I of this paper (presented in this issue) describes the test facility for the investigation of installation effects and shows the relation between pipe configuration and disturbed flow profile for a wide variety of pipe configurations and flow conditioners. The second part compares the error shift of turbine meters with the characteristic of disturbed flow profiles. For this, three flow field parameters are used to quantify the disturbances of the velocity profiles such as the swirl intensity, flatness and asymmetry of the profile. Considering this, an empirical model is presented to explain the error shift of a turbine meter as a function of these three flow field parameters. The model will be verified for three types of turbine meters and the results will be discussed. 相似文献

The airflow development in the pipe, in the entrance region of the wind tunnel located in the Lithuanian Energy Institute, the laboratory of Heat Equipment Research and Testing is investigated to analyze the conditions for the reproduction of air velocity values. The analysis is performed to reveal undeveloped flow conditions where the calibration of the devices is usually made, the entrance region of the pipes, or free stream from the nozzles. In this study, different flow regimes have been investigated using different air velocity measurement methods. Experimental and numerical results clearly show the features of the developing flow. They both demonstrate the stable core of the velocity profile up to 5 D in the pipe and ≤1 D from the entrance into the free stream in the testing chamber. Ultrasonic anemometer (UA) installed in the aerodynamic test facility shows reliable and highly comparable results with another non-intrusive device – laser Doppler velocimeter (LDA) in a range of velocities from 0.05 m/s up to 30 m/s. UA integrated into the wind tunnel is not found to be used for metrological issues for air velocity. Due to the fast response, they both enabled to analyze fluctuations in the flow. Local vortices identified in the flow have influenced the low-frequency fluctuations and the scatter of measurement results. Moreover, high-frequency fluctuations found in the flow originated from the flow turbulence and might be due to the electronic or acoustic noise. The stabilization of the entrance region in the pipe influences the mean value of air velocity, the transversal distribution of velocity and the development of axial velocity in different test sections of the pipe in a wind tunnel. Along with the recirculation zones in cavities of ultrasonic transducers, these factors are essential that make an impact on the reproduction of air velocity value. 相似文献

The flow downstream of three conditioners, a tube bundle and two perforated plates, is investigated experimentally by means of particle image velocimetry and hot wire anemometry for Reynolds numbers of the order 10 5. The conditioners are exposed to the flow disturbed by two different installations: a 90° single bend and a 2×90° out-of-plane double bend. Velocity profiles, turbulent fluctuations and Reynolds‘ stress are measured. The jets issuing from the holes and tubes of the conditioners are visualised in the near field which extends up to approximately four pipe diameters downstream of the conditioners. The disturbance imposed on the flow by the conditioners disappears at this position, while the decay of the disturbance caused by the installations takes place in the far field. The decay rate in the far field depends on the specific installation. It is found that this decay is more rapid for the double bend. While the velocity profiles match the profile for fully developed flow approximately at a position of 25 diameters downstream of the conditioners, the turbulent equilibrium state is not even reached at 50 diameters. The results also show that the perforated plates have a higher efficiency than the tube bundle in conditioning the disturbed flow. 相似文献

This communication presents the approaches set up for processing spinner flowmeter well logs in vertical wells with a single fluid phase, which is the most widely used in assessing wells productivity. These focus on improving the pipe hydraulics relationships so that the different fluid inputs throughout the well can be quantified. Since vertical flow inside wells varies with depth between laminar flows (very low Reynolds number, i.e. Re < 10 3) and turbulent ( Re > 4·10 3) the aim has been to reduce the uncertainty in the transition interval. Starting from bibliographical data and/or well-known formulas for laminar and for turbulent flow, several continuous relationships have been developed for any regime: 1) an expression for the radial distribution of velocity inside the pipeline (velocity profile) was developed. 2) A relationship between the average velocity and the velocity at the axis (velocity factor) was created. 3) A third equation was generated to obtain the friction factor in smooth pipes (and starting from this, a new explicit equation for rough pipes). The purpose has been to have a set of empirical expressions of easy and continuous application for any regime, as an alternative to the use of computer simulations. 相似文献

The flow of multiphase and multicomponent mixtures in pipes is one of the greatest unsolved problems of modern process engineering. The complexity of the behaviour has meant that all but the simplest phenomena have remained unexplored, both experimentally and theoretically. The droplet flow regime in an oil-water flow in a vertical pipe is investigated by using impedance and ultrasonic techniques. The data are analysed with the Grassberger-Procaccia algorithm. The dimension of the attractor governing the flow is found to be the same ( D ≈ 5) within experimental error for both methods. Limitations to the technique are described and the concept of a flow regime map derived in terms of attractor dimension (fractal or Hausdorf-Besicovich) contours is presented. 相似文献

Industries which transport slurries and other particle-laden liquids in pipes expend the equivalent of millions of pounds every year to repair erosion damage caused by solid particle impingement. It is against this background that the perceived relationship between pipeline erosion and imposed swirling flow fields in pipe bends is important. Definitions of flow fields and particle dispersions which minimise erosive wear are sought to facilitate the development of new designs and geometries for slurry handling equipment. Such an approach is pertinent to industries handling valuable or hazardous material in the face of increasing safety, efficiency and economic requirements. Robust erosive wear models must be developed to explore the advantages of swirl flow and subsequent particle dispersion. Collaboration between the universities of Nottingham and Southampton is aimed at the reduction of wear at critical locations in slurry handling pipelines by applying swirl-inducing pipes upstream of pipe bends. This paper details the improved particle distributions, particle impingement conditions and lower flowrates resulting from such swirl flow. These factors are discussed in terms of current erosion models and the predicted reduction in wear rates. Parallel visualisation studies using simulant particle-laden liquids augment computational modelling of the flow patterns. 相似文献

This paper presents the results obtained when placing different designs of perforated plate flow conditioner downstream of two common flow-disturbing installations in turn: a single 90° bend and a twisted S bend. The results comprise a series of LDV measurements of velocity and r.m.s. fluctuation velocity profiles made in two perpendicular planes at locations between 3 and 41 pipe diameters ( D) downstream of the conditioners. The flow conditioners were placed at 4 D downstream of the flow-disturbing installations. Measurements were also made without the inclusion of a flow conditioner for comparison. Several designs of flow conditioner give profiles within 5% of a fully developed profile 11 D downstream of the conditioner; so significant reductions in lengths of meter runs should be possible. The Spearman (NEL) design performs at least as well as other contemporary designs and is available for inclusion in the relevant standards. These measurements were carried out in a water pipeline. 相似文献

Transition of laminar pulsatile pipe flow into turbulence is one of the current research topics in flow dynamics. Despite the existence of a considerable number of theoretical and experimental studies, the physical mechanism of transition is not well defined. Furthermore, there is almost no information on the start and the end of the transition in terms of pulsatile flow parameters. In this paper, an approach which consists of attempts to correlate the governing flow parameters is presented to reveal the transition process with particular emphasis on the frictional field. The experimental data collected in slightly compressible, Newtonian, one-dimensional laminar pulsatile pipe flow without a flow reversal were compiled for this purpose. The common oscillation parameters, dimensionless frequency parameter
and velocity amplitude ratio A1 were the main variables of the experimental study covering the ranges of
and 0.05≤A1≤0.8. The time history of local static pressure gradient and axial velocity field were accumulated and the data were expressed through pulsatile flow, instantaneous λu(t) and time-averaged λu,ta friction factors using momentum-integral equation. A reference friction factor ratio λR, whose definition was based on the concept of steady flow friction was introduced. The start and the end of transition were predicted through the functional relationships of λR with time-averaged and oscillating Reynolds numbers, Reta and Reos by means of a trial–error procedure. The proposed correlations and determined approximate critical limits of transition are only valid in the corresponding ranges of 2000≤Reta≤60 000, 620≤Reos≤18 800 and the analysis is open to discussion. 相似文献

The flow downstream of three different flow conditioners, a tube bundle and two perforated plates, was investigated by measuring the time-averaged, axial velocity component with Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV). The conditioners were exposed to the flow disturbed by a 90° out-of-plane double-bend. The experiments were performed with air flow through a pipeline of 100 mm i.d. and at Reynolds numbers between 100 000 and 200 000. The axial development of the velocity profiles, without and with conditioner, is documented, and the performance of the three devices in conditioning the disturbed flow can be compared. Particular attention is given to the determination of time-averaged velocity values by means of PIV. 相似文献

The simulation of hydraulic behaviour of water distribution networks (WDN) needs to develop and implement a mathematical model that is able to consider a wide range of control devices of complex systems. A literature overview is primarily provided for the solution procedures of steady state simulation of nonlinear pipe network hydraulics. Typical elements of pressure regulating valves are conceptually described and differentiated into their functional characteristics to incorporate their hydraulics in the simulation model. They are explored by considering their possible topological positions and operating states. A novel efficient methodology using an unknown head-loss function is initially presented for the hydraulic simulation of network flow problems containing static and/or dynamic closed pipes. Closed pipes can be mainly obtained in the distribution networks either by turning off the isolation valves at a pipe segment or as a result of the operating state of unidirectional control devices depending on the pressure distribution in the pipe network. Thereupon, this approach is extended to integrate the control elements of pipe networks such as check valves, pressure reducing (PRV) and safety valves as well as booster/pumping stations. An iterative numerical algorithm is applied to solve the loop equations using the Newton-Raphson method for the linearised energy equation, where Hardy-Cross technique is locally used to correct flow rates of loops containing closed pipes in the iteration procedure. The developed hybrid approach demonstrated robust and very fast converging behaviour for real-world pipe network applications. Moreover, it can consider a variety of combinations of control devices in different network configurations. Several empirical head loss formulas can be additionally used in combination with the commonly known equations such as Hazen-Williams and Colebrook-White head loss formulas. The application of the algorithm will be briefly demonstrated by discussing some simulation results from example and real world large scale WDN. 相似文献

Sodium cooled Fast Reactors (SFR) require measurement of liquid sodium flow in its primary and secondary circuits. For the primary system of the pool type concept of SFR design, flowmeters have to be immersed in sodium pool and require flow sensors which can withstand high temperatures up to 550 °C, nuclear radiation and chemically reactive sodium environment. Secondary circuits and safety grade decay heat removal (SGDHR) circuits of SFR need flow measurement in stainless steel (SS) pipes of diameter varying from 15 mm to 800 mm. For small pipes, flowmeters with permanent magnet flowmeter with ALNICO-V magnet assembly is the unanimous choice. Conventional permanent magnet flowmeters (PMFM) for large pipelines become bulky, heavy and have installation problems. For sodium flow measurement in large pipelines a few other alternate methods are considered. In the case of Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor (PFBR), which is at an advanced stage of construction at Kalpakkam, flow in the 800 mm diameter secondary main circuit is measured by means of a bypass flowmeter. Other sensors that could be deployed include eddy current flowmeters (ECFM), which are introduced into the pipe to measure flow velocity in the pipe, ultrasonic flowmeters and permanent magnet based side wall flowmeters. In permanent magnet based side wall flowmeter (SWFM), a permanent magnet block is mounted on one side of the large pipe and the magnetic field produced by the magnet penetrates through the pipe and interacts with the flowing sodium and induces an electro motive force (emf) proportional to the flow. This is a compact, cost effective and fairly accurate method for flow measurement in large pipelines of SFR circuits. SWFM is suitable for pipelines of 100 mm and above. In the present work a side wall flowmeter for 100 mm pipe is designed, manufactured, calibrated and tested in an existing sodium facility. Voltage signal developed in SWFM for different flowrates was simulated with three dimensional Finite Element Model (FEM) and validated with experimental results. Effect of asymmetric magnetic field on flowmeter voltage signal and dependence of flowmeter voltage signal on position of electrodes was also analyzed with model. The feasibility of use of this type of flowmeter for large pipelines of SFRs is demonstrated. 相似文献

For pseudo-homogeneous flows, measurements of density and mean velocity can give the component mass flow rate of a two-component mixture. However, for accurate measurement of non-homogeneous flow rate, the density and velocity distribution across the cross-section of the pipe must be known. The most practical way of obtaining this information is by using the flow imaging technique. A recently developed capacitance system gives 60 frames per second images of oil/water flow in a 78 mm pipe. The target spatial resolution is one part in 20 by distance (one in 400 by area). The electrical properties of each imaged boundary are functionally related to the imaged value, so the component ratio of a two-component mixture within a boundary can be measured, although individual particles cannot be imaged. Design data shows how the basic system can be part of a complete system for component mass flow measurement. 相似文献

The near field structure of round turbulent jets with initially asymmetric velocity distributions is investigated experimentally.
Experiments are carried out using a constant temperature hot-wire anemometry system to measure streamwise velocity in the
jets. The measurements are undertaken across the jet at various streamwise stations in a range starting from the jet exit
plane and up to a downstream location of twelve diameters. The experimental results include the distributions of mean and
instantaneous velocities, vorticity field, turbulence intensity, and the Reynolds shear stresses. The asymmetry of the jet
exit plane was obtained by using circular cross-section pipes with a bend upstream of the exit. Three pipes used here include
a straight pipe, and 90 and 160 degree-bend pipes. Therefore, at the upstream of the pipe exit, secondary flow through the
bend and mean streamwise velocity distribution could be controlled by changing the curvature of pipes. The jets into the atmosphere
have two levels of initial velocity skewness in addition to an axisymmetric jet from a straight pipe. In case of the curved
pipe, a six diameter-long straight pipe section follows the bend upstream of the exit. The Reynolds number based on the exit
bulk velocity is 13,400. The results indicate that the near field structure is considerably modified by the skewness of an
initial mean velocity distribution. As the skewness increases, the decay rate of mean velocity at the centerline also increases. 相似文献

Ultrasonic tomography techniques provide flow visualization capability, non-invasively and non-intrusively, to enhance the understanding of complex flow processes. There is limited ultrasonic research in tomography imaging systems in the tomogram analysis of fluid flow in a conducting pipe because of a high acoustic impedance mismatch, which means that very little ultrasonic energy can be transmitted through the interface. The majority of industrial pipelines are constructed from metallic composites. Therefore, the development and improvement of ultrasonic measurement methods to accommodate a stainless steel pipe are proposed in this paper. Experimental and simulation distribution studies of the ultrasonic emitting frequency in acrylic versus stainless steel pipes were studied, measured and analyzed. During the simulation, ultrasonic transducers were placed on the surface of the investigated pipe to inspect the ultrasonic sensing field. The distribution of the sound wave acoustic pressure was simulated based on the physical dimensions and parameters of the actual experimental hardware set-up. We developed ultrasonic acoustic models using the finite element method with COMSOL software, and experiments were carried out to validate the simulation results. Finally, by performing the static phantoms tests, a feasibility study of ultrasonic tomography system was presented to investigate the void fraction of liquid column inside a stainless steel pipe. 相似文献

针对大口径宽波段高能激光发射系统内通道的防尘除湿问题,提出了内通道正压通风密封方法。该方法利用净化后的干燥洁净空气排出原有的空气,并在发射端口形成正压气流阻挡外界空气向内通道扩散,从而达到密封防护的目的。借助计算流体力学软件Fluent对发射系统内通道的正压通风流场进行了数值模拟和分析研究,研究显示洁净气流在发射端口处产生一定的风速和压差,从而形成了内部正压抵挡通道外空气的回流。对于10.6μm的长波激光,根据压力变化估计了通道内的折射率变化在10-7量级,引起的光程差约为1μm。最后,通过实验验证了仿真结果。结果表明:监测面的速度值比仿真结果稍大,但是速度变化基本相同,而且洁净气流在监测面保持有0.64m/s的正压速度,洁净空气的相对湿度从59%降至了29%,基本达到了正压通风系统防尘除湿的密封设计要求。 相似文献
