Particle - laden tubeless siphon
نویسندگان
چکیده
A tubeless siphon was created by sucking a 1% aqueous Polyox† solution laden with particles from a beaker into a cylinder by moving a piston. The piston speed and particle concentration were varied. At very high rates of withdrawal, all the liquid could be removed before the siphon broke. In this case, the beaker was completely cleaned without a trace of liquid. The addition of small concentrations of small, nearly neutrally buoyant particles greatly enhanced the pulling power of the liquid, reducing the threshold speed of withdrawal at which the beaker was completely cleaned. At speeds of withdrawal smaller than the threshold not all of the fluid–particle mixture is pulled out of the beaker. The amount pulled out first increases, then decreases as the particle concentration is increased.

متن کاملNanoparticle - laden tubeless and open siphons †
Tubeless and open siphons operate without conduits, in the open, supported only by extensional stresses. Here, we demonstrate that the addition of silica nanoparticles in modest concentrations (on the order of 1% by weight) to an aqueous Poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) solution of a moderately low concentration (0.5% by weight) has a dramatic effect on the power of the siphon as well as on the abili...
متن کاملA Study of the conditions of non- sedimentation in Karkhe Inverted Siphon by using a Laboratory Model
Deposition of sediment inside the conduit structures reduces the flow cross section area and increases the flow roughness which causes reduction of flow discharge passing through the conduit. Among the methods which can prevent sediment deposition is non sedimentation condition in the structure, Since the critical section of the inverted siphon in sedimentation is the outlet. In the begining of...

Simulation and prediction of scour whole dimensions downstream of siphon overflow using support vector machine and Gene expression programming algorithms
Background and Objectives: The purpose of this study is to simulate and predict the dimensions of the scour cavity downstream of the siphon overflow using the SVM model and compare it with other numerical methods. The use of the SVM algorithm as a meta-heuristic system in simulating complex processes in which the dependent variable is a function of several independent variables has been widely ...
