Multi-component Multiphase Flow
نویسندگان
چکیده
An axiomatic foundation for models of multi-component multiphase porous flow appearing ubiquitously in the engineering literature is developed. This unifies and extends various disparate and empirical formulations appearing in the literature. Constitutive restrictions are derived from an appropriate statement of the second law of thermodynamics, and the corresponding dissipation inequalities establish stability of solutions. The convexity properties and variational structure of these models are elucidated.

Investigating the Effects of Mass Transfer and Mixture Non-Ideality on Multiphase Flow Hydrodynamics Using CFD Methods
A numerical framework has been proposed to model the interacting effects of mixture non-ideality and mass transfer on hydrodynamics of a multiphase system using CFD methods.Mass transfer during condensation and vaporization is modeled by chemical potential at the liquid-vapor interface. Species mass transfers are related to the diffusion at the interface which in turn is related to the conc...
متن کاملMulti-Component-Multiphase Flash Calculations for Systems Containing Gas Hydrates by Direct Minimization of Gibbs Free Energy
The Michelsen stability and multiphase flash calculation by direct minimization of Gibbs free energy of the system at constant temperature and pressure, was used for systems containing gas hydrates. The solid hydrate phase was treated as a solid solution. The fugacities of all components of the hydrate phase were calculated as a function of compositions by the rearranged model of van der Wa...
متن کاملParallel LBM to Simulate Gravity Driven Bubbly and Slug Flows
Multi phase and multi component flows are ubiquitous in nature as well as in many man-made processes. Multi-phase flows typically manifest a wide variety of geometrical patterns (or flow regimes) of associated phases depending on several system conditions. These patterns include, but are not limited to, bubbly, slug, churn or annular flows. In the case of boiling this may lead to Departure from...
متن کاملA preconditioned solver for sharp resolution of multiphase flows at all Mach numbers
A preconditioned five-equation two-phase model coupled with an interface sharpening technique is introduced for simulation of a wide range of multiphase flows with both high and low Mach regimes. Harten-Lax-van Leer-Contact (HLLC) Riemann solver is implemented for solving the discretized equations while tangent of hyperbola for interface capturing (THINC) interface sharpening method is applied ...
متن کاملMultiphase flow and tromp curve simulation of dense medium cyclones using Computational Fluid Dynamics
Dense Medium Cyclone is a high capacity device that is widely used in coal preparation. It is simple in design but the swirling turbulent flow, the presence of medium and coal with different density and size fraction and the presence of the air-core make the flow pattern in DMCs complex. In this article the flow pattern simulation of DMC is performed with computational fluid dynamics and Fluent...
