| Abstract: | Disc refiner is a critical equipment in the pulping and papermaking industry, pulp is refined in the refining zone, and different bar structures of refining disc constitute the different refining zones. With the use of the 3D modeling software SOLIDWORKS, five different refining discs that are commonly used in low consistency pulping, were built. The five refining discs were simulated and analyzed using the Computational Fluid Dynamics(CFD)software. The distribution of pulp velocity and surface shear stress, which is displayed between the bar and groove structures, can indirectly show the stress conditions on the refining discs. This paper provides a theoretical basis for research on the bar and groove failure of the refining discs. |
