Numerical Investigation of the Role of the Inlet Swirl Velocity Profile on Decay of Swirl in Pipe Flow
The influence of the inlet swirl velocity profile shape on the decay of swirl in steady-state, incompressible, laminar pipe flows is investigated by means of computational fluid dynamics. The investigation is carried out for a Reynolds number of 2000, which marks the upper limit of the laminar flow behavior for unidirectional pipe flow. Computations are performed for two different mean swirl nu...
متن کاملPhysical Modelling of Self-Aeration in a Cavitating Sudden PIPE Expansion Flow
Sudden pipe expansions have been known as efficient hydraulic energy dissipaters for a long time. The complex phenomenon of flow separation and velocity discontinuity at the interface of incoming jet and the recirculation flow, results in intensive shear and tensile rupture of the fluid and the associated destructive phenomenon of cavitation. This paper focuses on aeration in sudden pipe expans...
متن کاملSwirl boundary layer and flow separation at the inlet of a rotating pipe
When a fluid enters a rotating circular pipe, an angular momentum or swirl boundary layer appears at the wall and interacts with the axial momentum boundary layer. In the centre of the pipe, the fluid is free of swirl and is accelerated due to boundary layer growth. Below a critical flow number, defined as the ratio of average axial velocity to circumferential velocity of the pipe, there is flo...
متن کاملA New Model for Prediction of Heat Eddy Diffusivity in Pipe Expansion Turbulent Flows
A new model to calculate heat eddy diffusivity in separating and reattaching flows based on modification of constant Prt is proposed. This modification is made using an empirical correlation between maximum Nusselt number and entrance Reynolds number. The model includes both the simplicity of Prt=0.9 assumption and the accuracy of two-equation heat-transfer models. Furthermore, an appropriate l...
متن کاملCfd Simulation Of Flow Field In An Inject Pipe Mixer
The Inject Pipe Mixer (IPM) are being used as venturi injectors and can also homogenize two fluids. The entry of secondary fluid as a jet influences flow field in the device. A CFD simulation of flow through an IPM (Lshape) has been carried out using ANSYS CFX 11.0 using water as the flowing fluid to understand the flow field under turbulent flow conditions using standard k--ε model. The result...
