According to the studying on the force analysis of floating ring of centrifugal pump, the paper think that floating ring stress will change with the change of centrifugal pump’ s condition. Using fluent software, the floating ring seal was simulated and analyzed. Results show that the liquid force acted on the floating ring is nonuniform and asymmetrical as wedging effect, and that section maximum pressure is not lies in the smallest clearance place, but in the wedge area where liquid flows to the minimum clearance, because the effect of Leak resistance is better in high pressure than low pressure. The leakage decreases and liquid resistance increases with the increases of RPM. The leakage increases with the increases of differential pressure in sealing ring sides and eccentricity. Pressure distribution within the seal clearance is not uniform with the increases of eccentricity.

Abstract Motion of liquid pouring from a beverage can is numerically studied. A liquid is poured from a can which is rotated at a prescribed angular speed. The flow is simulated by solving the unsteady three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations. An experiment under the same condition is also carried out to validate the computational result. The result shows that, when the can is tipped, the liquid flows over the lid of the can and is once obstructed by the rim of the lid. The numerical result is in good agreement with the experimental result. The effect of condensation formed on a can surface is also considered. The effect of condensation is taken into account by adjusting a contact angle. The liquid pouring from a can trickles down along the can body. The computation reproduces these experimental observations.

Liquid Flows

We investigate the effect of a light turbulent wind on a liquid surface, below the onset of wave generation. In that regime, the liquid surface is populated by small disorganised deformations elongated in the streamwise direction. Formally identified recently by Paquier et al. (Phys. Fluids, vol. 27, 2015, art. 122103), the deformations that occur below the wave onset were named wrinkles. We provide here a theoretical framework for this regime, using the viscous response of a free liquid surface submitted to arbitrary normal and tangential interfacial stresses at its upper boundary. We relate the spatio-temporal spectrum of the surface deformations to that of the applied interfacial pressure and shear stress fluctuations. For that, we evaluate the spatio-temporal statistics of the turbulent forcing using direct numerical simulation of a turbulent channel flow, assuming no coupling between the air and the liquid flows. Combining theory and numerical simulation, we obtain synthetic wrinkles fields that reproduce the experimental observations. We show that the wrinkles are a multi-scale superposition of random wakes generated by the turbulent fluctuations. They result mainly from the nearly isotropic pressure fluctuations generated in the boundary layer, rather than from the elongated shear stress fluctuations. The wrinkle regime described in this paper naturally arises as the viscous-saturated asymptotic of the inviscid growth theory of Phillips (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 2 (05), 1957, pp. 417–445). We finally discuss the possible relation between wrinkles and the onset of regular quasi-monochromatic waves at larger wind velocity. Experiments indicate that the onset of regular waves increases with liquid viscosity. Our theory suggests that regular waves are triggered when the wrinkle amplitude reaches a fraction of the viscous sublayer thickness. This implies that the turbulent fluctuations near the onset may play a key role in the triggering of exponential wave growth.

The Impact

Abstract The article presents experimental results on the impact of tundish flow regulator influencing the liquid steel flow course. The research was conducted based on the hybrid modelling methods understood as a complementary use of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) methods and physical modelling. Dynamic development of numerical simulation techniques and accessibility to highly advanced and specialized software causes the fact that these techniques are commonly used for solving problems related to liquid flows by using analytical methods. Whereas, physical modelling is an important cognitive tool in the field of empirical identification of these phenomena. This allows for peer review and specification of the researched problems. By exploiting these relationships, a comparison of the obtained results was performed in the form of residence time distribution (RTD) curves and visualization of particular types of liquid steel flow distribution zones in the investigated tundish.
