ABSTRACT To construct a coupled simulation model of soil wind erosion and two-phase flow in arid semiarid regions, the proper contact parameters discrete element are obtained based on angle repose (AoR) calibration test. The is established by combining computational fluid dynamics. response value speed sand initiation used to verify model’s accuracy. Due characteristics soils, this paper uses H...

Abstract Gas-solid riser flow exhibits strong heterogeneous structure in both axial direction and radial directions. Recent experimental studies reveal that the general radial solids concentration profiles present a double ring structure and the formation of a solid core region which have a relative higher concentration than the annulus region. This paper is focused on a comprehensive modeling ...

Granular flow simulation using CFD has received a lot of attention in recent years. In such cases, CFD is either, coupled with Discrete Element Method (DEM) techniques for appropriate incorporation of inter-particle collisions, or the Eulerian CFD approach is used in which granular particles are treated as they were fluid. In the present study, a CFD analysis was performed...

the performance of the electric submersible pump (esp) significantly affected by gas void fraction (gvf). thus, using of a rotary gas separator (rgs) is a suitable solution for this issue. the performance of the rgs is function of different parameters such as geometry of impeller, rotating speed, boundary conditions, media viscosity and gvf. in this study, the influences of gvf, viscosity, and ...
