A new adaptation of mapping method to study mixing of multiphase flows in mixers with complex geometries
The main objective of the present work is to modify the traditional mapping method for the simulation of distributive mixing of multiphase flows in geometries involving moving parts such as, internal mixers or twin-screw extruders without a limitation on their geometrical periodicity. The periodicity condition, limits the results of traditional mapping method to tracking mapping mesh between sp...
متن کاملExperimental studies of front propagation and mode-locking in an advection-reaction-diffusion system
– Experiments are presented on reaction processes in a cellular, time-periodic fluid flow composed of a chain of oscillating vortices. Previous studies have shown that mixing of passive impurities in this flow is chaotic. Chemical fronts are studied in this flow using the excitable regime of the ruthenium-catalyzed Belousov-Zhabotinsky reaction. The velocities of the fronts are measured as a fu...
متن کاملCompetitive autocatalytic reactions in chaotic flows with diffusion: prediction using finite-time Lyapunov exponents.
We investigate chaotic advection and diffusion in autocatalytic reactions for time-periodic sine flow computationally using a mapping method with operator splitting. We specifically consider three different autocatalytic reaction schemes: a single autocatalytic reaction, competitive autocatalytic reactions, which can provide insight into problems of chiral symmetry breaking and homochirality, a...
متن کاملChaotic advection in a two-dimensional flow: L6vy flights and anomalous diffusion
Long-term particle tracking is used to study chaotic transport experimentally in laminar, chaotic, and turbulent flows in an annular tank that rotates sufficiently rapidly to insure two-dimensionality of the flow. For the laminar and chaotic velocity fields, the flow consists of a chain of vortices sandwiched between unbounded jets. In these flow regimes, tracer particles stick for long times t...
متن کاملChaotic mixing of granular materials in two-dimensional tumbling mixers.
We consider the mixing of similar, cohesionless granular materials in quasi-two-dimensional rotating containers by means of theory and experiment. A mathematical model is presented for the flow in containers of arbitrary shape but which are symmetric with respect to rotation by 180 degrees and half-filled with solids. The flow comprises a thin cascading layer at the flat free surface, and a fix...
