Direct numerical simulations for assessment of gas-solid drag models in two-dimensional random arrays of particles

The momentum exchange between the phases plays a vital role in modelling of gas–solid flows and it is mathematically described by drag models. However, no consensus exists on which drag model gives the most accurate prediction of the drag force, and, despite the increase in available computing power, the same drag models are used in two-dimensional and three-dimensional simulations. In this study, direct numerical simulations of gas flow through multiple random configurations of static monodisperse particles are performed. The variations of solid volume fraction and particle Reynolds number are in the ranges of 0.05–0.4 and 13.7–136.9, respectively. The drag force exerted on particles is calculated and properly averaged. Based on the simulation results, thirteen drag models are compared and correction factors are introduced using the stochastic gradient descent algorithm. The correction factors provide a simple adjustment for the models to be used in 2D modelling.     

Quasiconvolutional smoothing of polyhedra

This paper describes a method for rounding edges and corners of arbitrary polyhedra that uses a fast approximation to convolutional filtering. The approximation defines an implicit surface, which is rendered with a specialised ray-tracing algorithm. By varying the radius of the smoothing filter, a wide range of effects can be obtained, from perfect polyhedra to blobby models. Small rounding radii give polyhedra a softer, more natural look, with edges well delineated by shadows and highlights. The rounded surfaces are much easier to specify and compute than those obtained by traditional filleting and surface-blending techniques, and are far more economical in storage.     

High power devices in wide bandgap semiconductors

Silicon carbide (SiC) semiconductor devices for high power applications are now commercially available as discrete devices. Recently Schottky diodes are offered by both USA and Europe based companies. Active switching devices such as bipolar junction transistors (BJTs), field effect transistors (JFETs and MOSFETs) are now reaching the market. The interest is rapidly growing for these devices in high power and high temperature applications. The main advantages of wide bandgap semiconductors are their very hi...

High Order Schemes for Resolving Waves: Number of Points per Wavelength

For energetic flows there are many advantages of high order schemes over low order schemes. Here we examine a previously unknown advantage. It is commonly thought that the number of points per wavelength in order to obtain a given error in a numerical approximation depends only on runtime and the order of the approximation. Using truncation error arguments and examples we will show that it is not a constant and depends also on the wavenumber. This dependence on the numerical order and wavenumber strongly favors high order schemes for use in flows which have significant energy in the high modes such at Rayleigh–Taylor and Richtmyer–Meshkov instabilities.

Oxidation behaviors of Ni-Cr-Al superalloy foams at 1 000 ℃ in air

The oxidation behaviors of Ni-16Cr-xAl （x=4.5%, 9.0%, mass fraction） superalloy foams in air at 1000℃ were investigated. The effects of AI content on the resistance to high temperature oxidation were examined. The oxidation mechanisms of the foams were discussed. The results show that the resistance to the oxidation of the Ni-16Cr-xA1 based alloy at 1 000 ℃ increases with the content of A1 increasing from 4.5% to 9.0%. Complex oxide products are formed on the surface of the superalloy foams after the oxidation. Cr203 and A1203 are the predominant oxides for the scales of the foams with 4.5% A1 and 9% A1, respectively. Excellent high temperature oxidation resistance and superior pore conformation stability for the Ni-16Cr-xA1 based superalloy foam with 9% A1 can be mainly attributed to the formation of relatively continuous and protective A1203 oxides on the surface of the foam.
