in this paper a new process is presented for improving efficiency of cyclone de-dusting systems. the cyclone is coupled with a specially designed cylindrical chamber which includes a rotating tube inside it with air impinging nuzzles, drilled on the peripheral surface of the tube. the nuzzles help in pushing and throwing the particles to the outer radius distances during downward flow of dust i...

Microbursts have been simulated and studied using different physical and numerical modeling methods. In the present study, the steady impinging jet model was comprehensively studied by using a 2-footdiameter (0.61 m) microburst simulator available in the Department of Aerospace Engineering at Iowa State University. Point measurements and Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) results revealed a detai...

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD), micromixing modeling, and the population balance equation (PBE) are coupled to simulate the crystal size distribution in a confined impinging jet crystallizer. For the antisolvent crystallization of lovastatin in confined impinging jets, the simulation results show varying degrees of inhomogeneity in the supersaturation and the nucleation and growth rates in ...

For industrial applications, we propose a concept of clean and efficient combustion through burning syngas on an impinging burner. We performed experimental measurements of particle image velocimetry, OH radical (OH*) chemiluminescence, flame temperature, and CO emission to examine the fuel mixing and reaction of premixed impinging flames of CH4/syngas/air with H2/CO in varied proportions. The ...

Measurements of the phases of free jet waves relative to an acoustic excitation, and of the pattern and time phase of the sound pressure produced by the same jet impinging on an edge, provide a consistent model for Stage I frequencies of edge tones and of an organ pipe with identical geometry. Both systems are explained entirely in terms of volume displacement of air by the jet. During edge-ton...

jet impingement heat transfer is an effective and practical approach that is employed in many industrial processes where heating, cooling, or drying is required. details of the heat or mass transfer rate have been investigated both experimentally and numerically and can be found in the published literature. in most of the numerical studies, control-volume approach has been employed to solve the...

This contribution presents different approaches for the modeling of air entrainment under water by plunging jets in CFD codes. In simulations which include the full length of the jet and its environment, the process of bubble generation can not be resolved due to computational limitations. This is why the air entrainment has to be modeled in meso-scale simulations. In the frame of an EulerEuler...
