Transient thermocapillary flow in rectangular tanks with phase change
A numerical and experimental study is performed on transient natural convection in an insulated rectangular tank. The liquid is suddenly heated by a line source or cooled by a line sink being placed at the center of the free surface to initiate a thermocapillary force. Evaporation or condensation takes place on the free surface. A finite-difference technique is employed to numerically integrate...
متن کاملElectro-osmotic flow in a rotating rectangular microchannel.
An analytical model is presented for low-Rossby-number electro-osmotic flow in a rectangular channel rotating about an axis perpendicular to its own. The flow is driven under the combined action of Coriolis, pressure, viscous and electric forces. Analytical solutions in the form of eigenfunction expansions are developed for the problem, which is controlled by the rotation parameter (or the inve...
متن کاملImportance of Laminar Flow Design in Septic Tanks
A survey of septic tank design shows that short-circuiting is minimized and effluent quality is improved when quiet, laminar, fluid-flow is encouraged, such as in long, narrow tanks with little hydraulic ‘dead space’. Longitudinal partitions provide better solids retention by providing longer travel distance, but transverse partitions are advantageous only when the opening between compartments ...
متن کاملNumerical Simulation of Influence of Inlet Configuration on Flow Pattern in Primary Rectangular Sedimentation Tanks
Design of primary settling tank has historically been done more empirically than rationally. The main reason for this is a lack of understanding of what pollutants primary settling tank are capable of removing. Inlets should be designed to dissipate the kinetic energy or velocity head of the mixed liquor. They should be able to distribute the flow equally in vertical and horizontal directions. ...
متن کاملSea cucumbers reduce chromophoric dissolved organic matter in aquaculture tanks
Background Mono-specific aquaculture effluents contain high concentrations of nutrients and organic matter, which affect negatively the water quality of the recipient ecosystems. A fundamental feature of water quality is its transparency. The fraction of dissolved organic matter that absorbs light is named chromophoric dissolved organic matter (CDOM). A sustainable alternative to mono-specific ...
