Numerical modelling of particle-laden sonic CO 2 jets with experimental validation
نویسندگان
چکیده
The characteristics of the particle distribution, evolution and movement in a sonic jet release of carbon dioxide (CO2) from a high pressure reservoir are investigated. The motivation is to numerically model the sonic jet with particles,using the hitherto unknown initial particle distribution measured herein,and hence understand and numerically reproduce the experimentally observedparticle behaviour downstream of the Mach shock, including turbulence characteristics and level of agglomeration. We employ a Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes scheme with adaptive mesh refinement (AMR), combined with a Lagrangian particle tracker and particle distribution function. The model is seeded at the nozzle with the experimentally measured particle distribution and exploited to reproduce the observed characteristics of the jet. These releases are designed to be representative of a sonic CO2release into the atmosphere and so provide data to help interpret how accidental or operational releases from the transport aspect of a carbon capture and storage chain might behave.

Simulation of local scour caused by submerged horizontal jets with Flow-3D numerical model
One of the most concerning issues for researchers is to predict the shape and dimensions of the scour pit nearhydraulic structures such as the base of bridges, weirs, valves and stilling basins due to both financial and humanhazards induced by destruction of the structure. As the scour issue has its own complexity in relation to themultiplicity of effecting factors on it, in this study therefor...

The present paper compares full kinetics mechanisms in numerical modelling of porous radiant burners (PRB), with their reduced forms. The two most frequently used mechanisms of methane combustion (GRI3.0 and Miller) were selected and their effects were examined on temperature, species concentration, burning speed, and pollutant emission. While the findings of numerical simulation of PRB sho...
