基于GMRES的超声过程层析成像算法研究

当前超声气固两相流层析成像的难点在于难以获得有效的信号和图像重建算法精度不高。鉴于此,作者以超声衰减理论为基础,提出一种基于广义最小残差(GMRES)迭代的超声层析成像重建算法：首先利用广义极小残差迭代算法获取初始物体浓度分布信息,然后采用均值滤波并设定灰度门槛的方法对其进行修正以提高图像精度。为验证该算法的可行性,利用数值仿真在较少有效信息条件下,求解欠定稀疏线性方程,将结果与现有几种图像重建算法比较发现该方法成像精度高,之后进行的超声气固两相流层析成像实验结果表明：采用该算法的成像系统能够反映管道内气固两相流截面固相浓度分布特征。

Turbulent flow computations on a hybrid cartesian point distribution using meshless solver LSFD-U

This paper may be considered as a sequel to one of our earlier works pertaining to the development of an upwind algorithm for meshless solvers. While the earlier work dealt with the development of an inviscid solution procedure, the present work focuses on its extension to viscous flows. A robust viscous discretization strategy is chosen based on positivity of a discrete Laplacian. This work projects meshless solver as a viable cartesian grid methodology. The point distribution required for the meshless solver is obtained from a hybrid cartesian gridding strategy. Particularly considering the importance of an hybrid cartesian mesh for RANS computations, the difficulties encountered in a conventional least squares based discretization strategy are highlighted. In this context, importance of discretization strategies which exploit the local structure in the grid is presented, along with a suitable point sorting strategy. Of particular interest is the proposed discretization strategies (both inviscid and viscous) within the structured grid block; a rotated update for the inviscid part and a Green-Gauss procedure based positive update for the viscous part. Both these procedures conveniently avoid the ill-conditioning associated with a conventional least squares procedure in the critical region of structured grid block. The robustness and accuracy of such a strategy is demonstrated on a number of standard test cases including a case of a multi-element airfoil. The computational efficiency of the proposed meshless solver is also demonstrated.     

A Monge-Ampère enhancement for semi-Lagrangian methods

Demanding the compatibility of semi-Lagrangian trajectory schemes with the fundamental Euler expansion formula leads to the Monge-Ampère (MA) nonlinear second-order partial differential equation. Given standard estimates of the departure points of flow trajectories, solving the associated MA problem provides a corrected solution satisfying a discrete Lagrangian form of the mass continuity equation to round-off error. The impact of the MA enhancement is discussed in two diverse limits of fluid dynamics applications: passive tracer advection in a steady cellular flow and in fully developed turbulence. Improvements of the overall accuracy of simulations depend on the problem and can be substantial.     

Stability analysis in spanwise-periodic double-sided lid-driven cavity flows with complex cross-sectional profiles

Three-dimensional linear instability analyses are presented of steady two-dimensional laminar flows in the lid-driven cavity defined by [15] and further analyzed in the present volume [1], as well as in a derivative of the same geometry. It is shown that in both of the geometries considered three-dimensional BiGlobal instability leads to deviation of the flow from the two-dimensional solution; the analysis results are used to define low- and high-Reynolds number solutions by reference to the flow physics. Critical conditions for linear global instability and neutral loops are presented in both geometries.     

A multiphase compressible model for the simulation of multiphase flows

A compressible model able to manage incompressible two-phase flows as well as compressible motions is proposed. After a presentation of the multiphase compressible concept, the new model and related numerical methods are detailed on fixed structured grids. The presented model is a 1-fluid model with a reformulated mass conservation equation which takes into account the effects of compressibility. The coupling between pressure and flow velocity is ensured by introducing mass conservation terms in the momentum and energy equations. The numerical model is then validated with four test cases involving the compression of an air bubble by water, the liquid injection in a closed cavity filled with air, a bubble subjected to an ultrasound field and finally the oscillations of a deformed air bubble in melted steel. The numerical results are compared with analytical results and convergence orders in space are provided.     

On the Sequential Accumulation of Evidence

In this paper, we introduce a method for sequentially accumulating evidence as it pertains to an active observer seeking to identify an object in a known environment. We develop a probabilistic framework, based on a generalized inverse theory, where assertions are represented by conditional probability density functions. This leads to a sequential recognition strategy in which evidence is accumulated over successive viewpoints using Bayesian chaining until a definitive assertion can be made. To illustrate the theory we show how the characteristics of belief distributions can be exploited in a model-based recognition problem, where the task is to identify an unknown model from a database of known objects on the basis of parameter estimates. We illustrate the robustness of the algorithm through recognition experiments in two very different contexts: (1) a highly structured recognition context where 3-D parametric models can be estimated directly from range data, (2) a complex environment, where the relationship between the data and the model is learned through an appearance-based strategy. Specifically, the flow fields computed through the object's motion are used as structural signatures for recognition.     

催化裂化提升管反应器数学模拟新方法

催化裂化提升管反应器数学模型基本上都是基于平推流反应器的假设建立起来的,但是由于其内部流动、传热以及反应过程非常复杂、偏离平推流较大,所以在模型的实际应用中必须用装置因数去校正,表现出较强的经验性,为了改变这种状况,本文通过研究分析,提出了对催化裂化提升管反应器进行多维微分模拟的研究方法,从根本上把反应器结构尺寸、物流入口条件,流动特征及传热特征等影响考虑进来,把流动、传热、传质、裂化反应以及湍流脉动作用全部纲入模型中,建立催化裂化提升管反应器的流动反应综合模型,通过对模型的求解,可以得到提升管反应器内催化剂颗粒及油气的速度分布、温度分布以及组分分布,从而揭示工业提升管反应器内的化学工程信息。这些数据对工业提升管反应器的设计、操作优化及新技术的实施都是十分重要的。     

Molecular dynamics simulations of oscillatory flows in microfluidic channels

In this paper we apply the direct non-equilibrium molecular dynamics technique to oscillatory flows of fluids in microscopic channels. Initially, we show that the microscopic simulations resemble the macroscopic predictions based on the Navier–Stokes equation very well for large channel width, high density and low temperature. Further simulations for high temperature and low density show that the non-slip boundary condition traditionally used in the macroscopic equation is greatly compromised when the fluid–wall interactions are the same as the fluid–fluid interactions. Simulations of a system with very narrow channel width confirm earlier findings of Poiseuille flow, namely, that the velocity profiles are modulated. We find that these modulations cannot be explained by the local area density model.

Gas particle industrial flow simulation using RANSTAD

A turbulent gas particle finite-volume flow simulation of a representative coal classifier is presented. Typical values of the loading ratio permit a one-way coupling analysis. As a case study, the computational fluid dynamics code,ranstad, and the modelling aspects are discussed in some detail. The simulation indicates that small (≈ 30 μm) coal particles pass through the classifier to the furnace but that large (≈ 300 μm) particles are captured and remilled. The computational simulation indicates that the classifier performance can be improved by internal geometric modification. The commitment of the Electricity Commission of New South Wales (Pacific Power) to the exploitation of Computational Engineering for the improvement of all aspects of electricity generation is acknowledged.
