The performance of corrugated baffles inserted in a rectangular channel heat exchanger is investigated. The fluid flows and thermal distribution are determined via numerical simulations. The working fluid has a shear thinning behavior. The influence of the baffle design is explored, we interest to the “wavy” shape. The corrugation angle of baffle (α) is changed from 0° (i.e. a straight...

Combustion instability caused by the amplification of sound waves is called acoustic or high-frequency instability, which can cause severe damage to system. Adding baffles one methods passive control. Depending on geometry chamber and type application, different are used. In this research, effect longitudinal corrugated baffle characteristics combustion investigated numerically. The quality eac...

When the crisscross baffles and logarithmic spiral baffles are placed on the bottom of the stirred tank with elliptic bottom, using CFD software FLUENT simulates the velocity field of the stirred tank with elliptic bottom and bottom baffles. Compare the velocity field of stirred tank with bottom crisscross baffle to the velocity field of stirred tank without bottom baffle and analysis the flow ...

This study presents an analysis of effectiveness of different designs of baffles, including the conventional, partial and oblique, in limiting the manoeuvre-induced transient as well as steady-state fluid slosh forces and moments in a partly-filled tank truck. The effect of an alternating arrangement of partial baffles is also explored. A three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics model of ...

Continuous stirred-tank reactors (CSTR) are widely applied in the chemical, food, and pharmaceutical engineering fields. The micro-scale fluid dynamics are important for the optimal processing study since they have a dominating influence on the overall performance of the reactor. In this article, 3-dimensional Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations are carried out to portray the flow ch...

Mixer-settlers typically contain an impeller mounted on a shaft, and optionally it can contain baffles. In this study, the effect of the number of baffles on the separation characteristics of the system, and the effect of blade width and inlet velocity on baffles number have been investigated. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) model is developed to predict the separation characteristics. The m...

The radiative heat transfer problem is investigated numerically for 2D complex geometry biomass pyrolysis reactor composed of two pyrolysis chambers and a heat recuperator. The fumes are a mixture of carbon dioxide and water vapor charged with absorbing and scattering particles and soot. In order to increase gases residence time and heat transfer, the heat recuperator is provided with many incl...
