Hydrodynamics of disturbed flow and erosion—corrosion. Part I — Single-phase flow study

Numerical simulations of turbulent flow have been used to determine the flow structure in a sudden pipe expansion, in order to explain the effects of disturbed flow on mass transfer controlled erosion–corrosion. Previously determined rates of mass transfer through the liquid boundary layer have been directly related to the predicted levels of near-wall turbulence. When rust films are present, the turbulent fluctuations affect both the mass transfer through the boundary layer and the removal of the film. The determining resistance to mass transfer, under the conditions examined, was that of the rust film.     

New analysis of non-newtonian turbulent flowndashyield-power-law fluids

The writers' new analysis of non-Newtonian turbulent flow is extended to the yield-power-law model. As the value of the exponent of the yield-power law decreases from unity, the calculated friction factor begins by converging toward the Newtonian line at high velocity, then parallels it, and finally diverges downward. This prediction agrees with previously unexplained experimental results.

Characterisation of three different impellers using the LDV-technique

A characterisation of three commonly used impellers was made in this study by measuring local mean velocities and the fluctuations of these velocities with the LDV technique. The data was used to estimate volumetric flow, velocity fluctuations and turbulent intensity in the impeller region of the tank. The impellers investigated were a high flow impeller, a pitched blade turbine and a Rushton turbine. The cylindrical vessel used was made of Perspex, had a dished bottom (DIN 28013), was equipped with four baffles and had an inner diameter of 0.45 m. It was found that the bulk velocities could be scaled with the tip-speed of the impeller (ND). The flow rate at constant impeller speed increased in the order high flow impeller — Rushton turbine — pitched blade turbine. The corresponding order for the turbulence fluctuation is: high flow impeller — pitched blade turbine — Rushton turbine. The velocity profile of the flow out from the high flow impeller was furthermore, not as smooth as could be expected.     

LDA Measurements on a Turbulent Gas/Liquid/Fibre Suspension

Detailed continuous phase flow measurements (mean and RMS velocities) by Laser Doppler Anemometry (LDA) of a turbulent gas/fibre/liquid suspension in a rotary shear tester have been performed with simultaneous torque measurements. The model system comprises a refractive‐index matched suspension in the 4‐12% wt. range with gas contents up to 15% vol. The two transition points, found by Andersson and Rasmuson (2000), were detected also with gas present and appear at higher impeller speeds with increasing gas and fibre concentrations. Plotting RMS and mean velocities versus impeller speed and power input, it is found that both decrease with increasing gas and fibre contents.

The use of a mixing-sensitive chemical reaction for the study of pulp fibre suspension mixing

The competitive, consecutive chemical reactions between 1-naphthol and diazotized sulfanilic acid were utilized to study the mixing of a pulp fibre suspension in a 22 L stirred tank reactor. Mixing quality was determined from the distribution between the mono and bis substituted reaction products once a correlation was made for the adsorption of the product dyes onto the suspended fibres. The technique was found to be adequate for assessing micromixing and turbulence intensity within a fibre suspension provided the measured product distribution, Xs, was between 0.4 and 0.01. Thus the mixing conditions that could be assessed depended on both the energy dissipation within the mixer and the amount of the fibre present. For the experimental conditions chosen for this study energy dissipation rates would typically have to be less than 80 W/kg and the suspension mass concentration less than 2.5%. When compared with water, a reduction in turbulence levels at both the impeller zone and a remote zone in the stirred vessel was observed for fibre mass concentrations as low as 0.5%. The turbulence decreased as the suspension mass concentration was increased. This decrease is attributed to energy dissipation by friction at fibre-fibre contact points as the fibres move relative to one another in the flow. This sink removes energy from the turbulence cascade which never shows up as small-scale fluid deformations leading to better mixing.     

Laminar and turbulent mass transfer simulations in a parallel plate reactor

Laminar and turbulent mass transfer in a parallel plate reactor at high Schmidt number obtained from numerical simulation is compared with literature data. In a first step, the fluid flow is determined numerically in the reactor by solving the Navier–Stokes equations. For turbulent flow, a low Reynolds number k— model is used to calculate the turbulent viscosity. Using the obtained flow field and turbulent viscosity, the current density distribution is calculated for different flow velocities by solving the equations describing the transport of multiple ions due to diffusion, convection and migration. For the laminar case, a very good agreement with literature data is obtained. For turbulent flow, different numerical models for turbulent mass transfer are proposed in the literature. A detailed study of the behaviour close to the wall of these different turbulence models is presented, together with a comparison of the calculated results with literature correlations. This allows identification of the benefits and disadvantages of each of the turbulence models for the numerical calculation of mass transfer at high Schmidt numbers in a parallel plate reactor.
