Large Eddy Simulation of Bubbling-Jetting Transition in a Bottom Blown Copper Converter
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this work the isothermal transition from bubbling to jetting regime in a bottom blown Peirce-Smith copper converter is numerically studied, varying the air jet injection velocity from 5 to 100 m s -1 . Large Eddy Simulation turbulence model is employed in the computer simulations to obtain transient, rather than averaged, phase distributions. For low injection velocities the bubbling regime is present, however the jet behavior evolves from bubbling to jetting regime as injection velocity is increased. For high injection velocities jetting behavior arises. In this case splashing is severe, however the bulk metal becomes little stirred due to the low momentum transfer.

Turbulent flow over an array of wall-mounted cubic obstacles has been numerically investigated using large-eddy simulation. The simulations have been performed using high-performance computations with local cluster systems. The array of cubes are fully submerged in a simulated deep rough-wall atmospheric boundary-layer with high turbulence intensity characteristics of environmental turbulent fl...

Mixed Large-Eddy Simulation Model for Turbulent Flows across Tube Bundles Using Parallel Coupled Multiblock NS Solver
In this study, turbulent flow around a tube bundle in non-orthogonal grid is simulated using the Large Eddy Simulation (LES) technique and parallelization of fully coupled Navier – Stokes (NS) equations. To model the small eddies, the Smagorinsky and a mixed model was used. This model represents the effect of dissipation and the grid-scale and subgrid-scale interactions. The fully coupled NS eq...
