鼓泡床内气泡-液体两相湍流代数应力模型的数值模拟

现有的气泡 -液体两相流动的数值模拟中 ,或者不考虑湍流 ,或者仅仅考虑液体湍流 ,但是直接模拟和PIV测量结果都表明气泡由于尾迹的作用有强烈的湍流脉动 .本文首次推导和封闭了同时模拟气泡湍流脉动和液体湍流脉动的二阶矩输运方程两相湍流模型 ,并在此基础上建立了代数应力气泡 -液体两相湍流模型 .用代数应力模型模拟了二维矩形断面鼓泡床内气泡 -液体两相流动 .预报结果给出了气泡和液体两相速度场、两相Reynolds应力及湍动能分布和气泡体积分数分布 .模拟结果与PIV测量结果符合很好 ,表明了模型的合理性 .研究结果表明 ,原先静止的液体在气泡因浮力而产生的上升运动的作用下产生回流流动 ,而气泡则只有上升运动 .气泡速度始终大于液体速度 .在床内气泡湍流脉动确实始终很强烈 .液体则由于气泡的作用以及自身速度梯度产生的双重作用而发生湍流脉动 .气泡的脉动显著地大于液体的脉动 .两相湍流脉动都是各向异性的 ,而且气泡湍流脉动的各向异性比液体的更强烈     

鼓泡床内气液两相流动的二阶矩模型与代数应力模型的模拟比较

A full second-order moment(FSM) model and an algebraic stress (ASM) two-phase turbulence model are proposed and applied to predict turbulent bubble-liquid flows in a 2D rectangular bubble column.Predication gives the bubble and liquid velocities,bubble volume fraction,bubble and liquid Reynolds stresses and bubble-liquid velocity correlation.For predicted two-phase velocities and bubble volume fraction the is only silight difference between these two models,and the simulation results using both two models are in good agreement with the particle image velocimetry(PIV) measurements.Although the predicted two-phase Reynolds stresses using the FSM are in somewhat better agreement with the PIV measurements than those predicted using the ASM,the Reynolds stresses predicted using both two models are in general agreement with the experiments.Therefore,it is suggested to use the ASM two-phase turbulence model in engineering application for saving the computation time.
