皂膜解吸Marangoni对流观察及分析

利用竖直流动皂膜装置,使用纹影光学方法观察了由于丙酮从皂液中解吸,在微米级厚度皂膜上出现的滚筒状Marangoni对流结构;通过建立皂膜传质数学模型及求解,分析了丙酮从皂膜解吸过程中浓度及表面张力的变化。结果表明:由于微米级的皂膜厚度,在皂膜平面法向方向皂膜内皂液丙酮浓度变化很小,但浓度梯度较大,对应的表面张力梯度较大,此较大表面张力梯度是丙酮从皂膜解吸过程中出现Marangoni对流的主要成因。     

气液传质过程中Marangoni对流的观测与定量分析

建立了一套气液传质装置和一套纹影系统对乙醇解吸CO₂过程中产生的Marangoni对流结构进行垂直界面方向上的观察,发现解吸过程中近界面处出现均匀分布的旋涡状的对流结构,并随时间聚合发展变大。此外还利用定量纹影法考察了传质过程中的浓度分布和界面张力梯度等信息。定量的结果表明较大的界面张力梯度位于对流胞型的边缘和中心处,驱动着界面流体的运动,并耦合浮力效应,形成了近界面环流的运动形式。这种环流运动造成了对流胞型边缘浓度较大、内部浓度小的分布,促进了相界面流体微元的更新,加强了传质过程。     

竖直流动皂膜中解吸导致的Marangoni对流观察

In gas-liquid mass transfer processes,Marangoni convection may occur due to the surface tension gradient produced by mass transfer near the interface.With a falling soap film tunnel and the Schlieren optical method,the Marangoni convection patterns along the film surface were observed directly in the desorption process of acetone from the falling soap film.The Schlieren images showed the regular roll convection in the thin falling soap film during the acetone desorption.The hydraulic characteristics were determined experimentally by measuring the variation of acetone concentration in the film and the surface tension of the soap liquid.The results show that the acetone concentration gradient vertical to the falling direction is very small because the thickness of the soap film is in the order of 10^-6 m.The variation of acetone concentration along the falling film is large,so there is a significant surface tension gradient,resulting in the Marangoni roll convection.The experimental results and a qualitative analysis may be helpful to understand the mechanism of Marangoni convection near the interface in the mass transfer.     

气液传质液滴界面的Marangoni对流

通过氮气吹扫双组分液滴,用激光投影法定性观察由于轻组分向气相扩散导致的Marangoni对流结构,结果表明Marangoni对流以小尺度涡流结构和大尺度对称循环流动的形式出现,其中乙醇-水体系首先出现小尺度涡流结构,涡流不断长大合并;丙酮-水体系则以大尺度对称循环对流结构为主,随后在近界面处形成小尺度涡流结构。采用氮气吹扫乙醇-水及丙酮-水静止悬垂单液滴的方法,通过比较实验测量传质系数与理论预测值,表明液滴近界面处Marangoni对流小尺度涡结构对传质促进作用较小,而液滴内大尺度循环对流结构对传质促进作用大。     

原油与化学驱油体系界面Marangoni对流实验研究

利用微观显微摄像系统研究了新疆油田石油磺酸盐(KPS)、Na2CO3及其复合体系与新疆原油接触后的界面变化特征.结果表明:KPS,Na2CO3及其复合体系与新疆原油接触后可以发生Marangoni对流,产生剧烈的界面扰动;Na2CO3与KPS在产生Marangoni对流过程中具有协同作用,低界面张力条件下Marangoni对流产生的界面扰动能够使原油自发乳化;聚合物的加入抑制了Marangoni对流.     

双光路纹影仪观察气液传质界面湍动现象

建立了双光路纹影仪实验系统,并利用双光路纹影仪,同时从垂直和平行于界面两个方向对氯苯吸收、解吸CO₂的传质对流结构进行了观察,发现在氯苯吸收CO₂时,没有明显的对流结构,只是在垂直界面的纹影图像中观察到逐渐变粗的暗条纹。在氯苯解吸CO₂时,在垂直和平行于界面两个方向都观察到了明显的对流结构,在垂直界面的纹影图像中开始时出现分层现象,随着解吸的进行,对流加剧,分层现象被破坏;平行界面方向的对流结构发展较快,优先在平行界面的纹影图像中观察到明显的对流结构。由于传质的热效应,两个方向的对流结构都有向中心运动的趋势。实验表明,双光路纹影仪实验系统能观察界面传质对流过程的三维变化,可深化对界面传质对流过程的认识。     

Marangoni对流的纹影实验分析

通过纹影系统对乙醇溶液解吸CO2的过程进行了实验研究,液层自由界面的俯视纹影图记录了对流结构的演化过程,并捕捉到了Marangoni对流结构的初始形态。相应的胞型结构因发展空间的限制,由初始的近圆形逐渐变成了多边形结构。利用纹影图片的灰度分布信息,对单个胞型结构的出现、发展及分裂阶段进行了定性分析,发现界面非均匀传质所引发的界面对流在其胞型发展的过程中将会导致界面的变形。湍动的后期,液层表面将布满多边形结构,且胞型结构基本保持不变。相应纹影图片的颜色差异随解吸的进行逐渐减小,即随着传质推动力的减小,湍动强度也将减弱。     

界面传质中Rayleigh对流的定量分析

通过纹影光路观察了特定气液传质装置中乙醇吸收CO₂过程所引发的Rayleigh对流在垂直界面方向上的发展过程。随着溶质吸收的进行,液层的流体稳定性变弱,扰动加剧气液界面失稳并发生湍动,进而发展为羽状流并逐步向液相主体发展,在此过程中伴随着对流胞的融合与增长。液层的浓度分布可通过对相应液层纹影图像进行定量分析获得。液层浓度分布和瞬时传质系数变化表征了Rayleigh对流的引发与发展及其对传质过程的强化效果,界面浓度分布及临界Rayleigh数解释了非均匀传质对湍动的引发机理。羽状流将高浓度液体快速带入主体,加速了近界面液层与主体液层的混合,增强了气液传质。     

从Marangoni对流胞元到大尺度界面变形的动力学不稳定性

The interplay between chemistry and interfacial-tension-driven hydrodynamic instabilities has been studied experimentally. The system on hand consists of two immiscible liquids separated along an initially plane interface at which an interfacial reaction takes place to produce in situ a surfactant. It is identified that the dynamics of the system depends on the orientation of the Hele-Shaw cell with respect to the vector of gravity. If the nele-Shaw cell is placed vertically, Marangoni cells with vigorous convection develop in both phases along a nearly planar interface. However, if the Hele-Shaw cell is tilted off the gravity, the instabilities in the system are characterized by the large scale interracial deformation with a spatio-temporal periodicity together with the chemo-Marangoni convection. The focus is on the exploration of the transition from the cellular mode to the large scale interfacial deformation.     

气液界面对流传质的观测与定量分析

采用光学纹影系统对乙醇和水双组分解吸传质过程的对流结构的界面湍动进行了定性观察和定量分析。建立了一套水平非稳态气液传质设备,试验观测了乙醇和水体系中液相组分向气相传质过程的Marangoni界面对流结构。还通过对传统纹影方法的改进,对乙醇解吸传质过程的浓度(本文用质量分数表示)梯度场进行了定量测量。定量分析表明乙醇和水系统解吸过程中,引发界面湍动的原因是局部较大的表面张力梯度。定量分析的结果很好的解释了伴随Marangoni效应的传质过程的混乱的对流结构,为进一步对界面湍动现象的分析提供了帮助。     

Simulation of interfacial Marangoni convection in gas-liquid mass transfer by lattice Boltzmann method

Interfacial Marangoni convection has significant effect on gas-liquid and/or liquid-liquid mass transfer processes. In this paper, an approach based on lattice Boltzmann method is established and two perturbation models, fixed perturbation model and self-renewable interface model, are proposed for the simulation of interfacial Marangoni convection in gas-liquid mass transfer process. The simulation results show that the concentration contours are well consistent with the typical roll cell convection patterns obtained experimentally in previous studies.     

Local analysis of Marangoni effects during and after droplet formation

The influence on the mass transfer in liquid-liquid extraction was investigated during droplet formation in a quiescent aqueous continuous phase for the two transition components, acetone and acetonitrile, in toluene. Both transition components have similar characteristics. However, an approximately eight times slower mass transfer of a droplet hanging on a capillary in relation to a rising droplet could be observed. The droplet formation time and the initial solute concentration are decisive for the mass transfer behaviour. A lower volumetric flow leads to slower droplet formation and a higher specific mass transfer area enhancing mass transfer, which is visualized via laser induced fluorescence (LIF). Additionally, as expected, higher initial solute concentrations promote Marangoni turbulences and thus mass transfer, which is measured via confocal Raman spectroscopy inside a fixed hanging droplet.     

两液层体系传质引发的Marangoni效应的数值模拟

The Marangoni effect induced by mass transfer at the interface between two immiscible liquids displays important influence on laboratory and industrial operation of solvent extraction. A systematic numerical study of the two-dimensional Marangoni effect in a two liquid layer system was conducted. The linear relationship of the inter- facial tension versus the solute concentration was incorporated into a mathematical model accounting for liquid flow and mass transfer in both phases. The typical cases analyzed by Sternling ＆ Scriven （AIChE J., 1959） using the linear instability theory were simulated bv the finite difference method and good agreement between the theory and the numerical simulation was observed. The simulation suggests that the Marangoni convection needs certain time to develop sufficiently in strength and scale to enhance the interphase mass transfer, the Marangoni effect is dynamic and transient, and remains at some stabilized level as long as the mass transfer driving force is kept con- stant. When certain level of shear is imposed at the interface as in most cases of practical significance, the Maran- goni effect is suppressed slightly but progressively as the shear is increased gradually. The present two-dimensional simulation of the Marangoni effect provides some insight into the underlying mechanism and also the basis for further theoretical study of the three-dimensional Marangoni effect in the real world and in chemical engineering applications.     

Marangoni and buoyant convection in a cylindrical cell under normal gravity

The present paper deals with the investigation of thermocapillary and natural convection by applying a white light-sheet technique for the simultaneous determination of the velocity and the temperature field. The oscillatory Marangoni convection has been visualized with differential interferometry. Streamlines, velocity profiles and isotherms are presented and discussed. A complete separation of a surface tension driven convection roll of hot fluid in the boundary layer and a buoyancy driven convection roll of colder fluid in the liquid volume was discovered. For large driving forces (large Marangoni number) inertia becomes effective and the interface becomes the source of localized eruptions.
