Segregation of Suspended Particles in a Rotating Fluid-filled Horizontal Cylinder – Experiment and Theory
An extensive experimental investigation into the segregation phenomenon of suspended particles in a rotating fluid-filled horizontal cylinder is presented as well as a theoretical approach to the underlying physics, based on the assumptions of small Ekman and Rossby numbers. The theoretical predictions agree well with experimental findings. The influence of non-linearity and viscosity on the ph...
متن کاملAxial instability of a free-surface front in a partially filled horizontal rotating cylinder
We investigate the axial instability of the free-surface front of a viscous fluid in a horizontal cylinder rotating about its longitudinal axis. A simplified model equation for the evolution of the free surface is derived and includes the effects of gravity, capillarity, inertia, and viscosity. This equation is solved numerically to determine the base state with no axial variation, and a numeri...
متن کاملAxial segregation of a settling suspension in a rotating cylinder.
A rotating suspension of nonbuoyant particles can develop striking inhomogeneities in particle concentration, with regular bands of high and low concentration along the symmetry axis. We report Stokes-flow simulations showing that the formation of axial bands is correlated with an inhomogeneous particle distribution in the radial plane. An order parameter, based on the average angular velocity ...
متن کاملGranular flow in partially filled slowly rotating drums
In many industrial processes granular materials are mixed together in partially filled slowly rotating drums. In this paper a general theoretical framework is developed for the quasi-two-dimensional motion of granular material in a rotating drum. The key assumption is that the body can be divided into a fluid-like and a solid-like region, that are separated by a non-material singular surface at...
متن کاملNatural convection from horizontal noncircular annulus partially filled with porous sleeve
In this paper natural convection heat transfer within a two-dimensional, horizontal, concentric cam shape cylinders that is partially filled with a fluid saturated porous medium has been investigated. both cylinder are kept at constant and uniform temperatures with the outer cylinder being subjected relatively lower than the inner one. In addition the forchheimer and brinkman effect are taken i...
