Multiphase Particle Image Velocimetry Measurements in a Bubble Column
نویسنده
چکیده
In this study the use of particle image velocimetry (PIV) in multiphase ows is described. Velocity elds are measured of both the continuous and the dispersed phase in a bubble column. From the measurements, turbulence characteristics like the strain rate and mutual correlations between gas and liquid velocities can be derived for the validation of numerical simulations.

A study of hydrodynamics and interfacial momentum exchange terms in cylindrical bubble column by CFD
Flow fields and bubble size distribution are two critical issues in the determination of mass transfer and reaction rate in bubble columns. In this work the hydrodynamics of bubble driven flow was investigated in a laboratory scale cylindrical bubble column. The column was a semi batch reactor which was initially filled with tap water and only gas was evenly fed to the column from the bottom wi...

The current empirical study was conducted to investigate the wall neighborhood impact on the two-dimensional flow structure and heat transfer enhancement behind a square cylinder. The low- velocity open-circle wind tunnel was used to carry out the study tests considering the cylinder diameter (D)-based Reynolds number (ReD) of 5130. The selected items to compare were different gap he...

متن کاملNumerical Calculation of the Flow Field in a Bubble Column Considering the Absorption of the Gas Phase
The interfacial area per unit volume is one of the key parameters for the design of multiphase reactors. In this work a population balance approach is applied to calculate the interfacial area density in a bubble column. The resulting transport equation for the arithmetic bubble volume is coupled with the balance equations for mass and momentum. In addition the physical absorption of the gas ph...
