Vertical Barriers

This study presents an approximate analytical model, which can be useful for the prediction and requirement of vertical barrier efficiencies. A previous study by the authors has indicated that a single dimensionless parameter determines the performance of a vertical barrier. This parameter is termed the barrier Peclet number. The evaluation of barrier performance concerns operation under steady state conditions, as well as estimates of unsteady state conditions and calculation of the time period requires arriving at steady state conditions. This study refers to high values of the barrier Peclet number. The modeling approach refers to the development of several types of boundary layers. Comparisons were made between simulation results of the present study and some analytical and numerical results. These comparisons indicate that the models developed in this study could be useful in the design and prediction of the performance of vertical barriers operating under conditions of high values of the barrier Peclet number.

Stability Of The Solution

The problem of convective diffusion toward the sphere in laminar flow around the sphere is solved by combination of the analytical and net methods for the region of Peclet number λ ≥ 1. The problem was also studied for very small values λ. Stability of the solution has been proved in relation to changes of the velocity profile.

Layer Solution

Theory has been formulated of a convective rotating spherical electrode in the creeping flow regime (Re → 0). The currently available boundary layer solution for Pe → ∞ has been confronted with an improved similarity description applicable in the whole range of the Peclet number.

Accumulation Effect

As in various manufacturing processes, in sliding tests with scanning motions to extend the sliding distance over fresh countersurface, temperature rise during any pass is bolstered by heating during prior passes over neighboring tracks, providing a “heat accumulation effect” with persisting temperature rises contributing to an overall temperature rise of the current pass. Conduction modeling is developed for surface temperature rise as a function of numerous inputs: power and size of heat source; speed and stroke length, and track increment of scanning motion; and countersurface thermal properties. Analysis focused on mid-stroke location for passes of a square uniform heat flux sufficiently far into the rectangular patch being scanned from the first pass at its edge that steady heat accumulation effect response is adopted, focusing on maximum temperature rise experienced across the pass' track. The model is non-dimensionalized to broaden the applicability of the output of its runs. Focusing on practical “high” scanning speeds, represented non-dimensionally by Peclet number (in excess of 40), applicability is further broadened by multiplying non-dimensional maximum temperature rise by the square root of Peclet number as model output. Additionally, investigating model runs at various non-dimensional speed (Peclet number) and reciprocation period values, it appears these do not act as independent inputs, but instead with their product (non-dimensional stroke length) as a single independent input. Modified maximum temperature rise output appears to be a function of only two inputs, increasing with decreasing non-dimensional values of stroke length and scanning increment, with outputs of models runs summarized compactly in a simple chart.
