Slip Conditions

Peristaltic pumping induced by a sinusoidal traveling wave in the walls of a two-dimensional channel filled with a viscous incompressible fluid mixed with rigid spherical particles is investigated theoretically taking the slip effect on the wall into account. A perturbation solution is obtained which satisfies the momentum equations for the case in which amplitude ratio (wave amplitude/channel half width) is small. The analysis has been carried out by duly accounting for the nonlinear convective acceleration terms and the slip condition for the fluid part on the wavy wall. The governing equations are developed up to the second order of the amplitude ratio. The zeroth-order terms yield the Poiseuille flow and the first-order terms give the Orr-Sommerfeld equation. The results show that the slip conditions have significant effect within certain range of concentration. The phenomenon of reflux (the mean flow reversal) is discussed under slip conditions. It is found that the critical reflux pressure is lower for the particle-fluid suspension than for the particle-free fluid and is affected by slip condition. A motivation of the present analysis has been the hope that such theory of two-phase flow process under slip condition is very useful in understanding the role of peristaltic muscular contraction in transporting biofluid behaving like a particle-fluid mixture. Also the theory is important to the engineering applications of pumping solid-fluid mixture by peristalsis.

The Mean

Peristaltic pumping by a sinusoidal traveling wave in the walls of a two-dimensional channel filled with a viscous incompressible fluid in which are distributed identical rigid spherical particles, is investigated theoretically. A perturbation solution is obtained which satisfies the momentum equations for the case in which amplitude ratio (wave amplitude/channel half width) is small. The results show that the fluid phase mean axial velocity decreases with increase in the particle concentration. The phenomenon of reflux (the mean flow reversal) is discussed. A reversal of velocity in the neighborhood of the centerline occurs when the pressure gradient is greater than that of the critical reflux condition. It is found that the critical reflux pressure is lower for the particle-fluid suspension than for the particle-free fluid. It is further observed that the mean flow reversal is strongly dependent on the particle concentration and the presence of particles in the fluid favors the reversal flow. A motivation of the present analysis has been the hope that such a theory of two-phase flow process is very useful in understanding the role of peristaltic muscular contraction in transporting bio-fluid behaving like a particle-fluid mixture. Also the theory is important to the engineering applications of pumping solid-fluid mixtures by peristalsis.

Underfill Flow

AbstractUnderfill encapsulants, used in direct‐chip‐attachment (DCA) packaging of electronics, consist of an epoxy resin in which a high concentration of solid particles are suspended. As a fluid mixture key features of these encapsulants are their relatively large particle sizes and large particle‐to‐liquid density ratios (ρs/ρ0 ?2.4). Experiments have been conducted to characterize the flow behavior of model mixtures of negatively buoyant, spherical particles suspended in Newtonian liquids. Capillary flow in a parallel surface channel is used to simulate the underfill flow process. The effects of varying the channel spacing, particle size and liquid carrier are reported here. The flow behavior is contrasted with a linear fluid, effective viscosity model. Particle settling appears to be linked to the more complex behavior observed in both our model suspensions and measurements using an actual commercial encapsulant.

Dissipation Of Energy

The production and dissipation of energy in a two-phase model for particle-fluid turbulent flow is considered. For plane parallel mean flow use of several scaling arguments yields a balance between production and drag dissipation for the particles, and between production and viscous dissipation for the fluid. A simple particle motion model is used to obtain estimates of the drag dissipation. Energy balance considerations are made for situations where drag reduction by the addition of particles is observed. Significant drag reduction is found to occur for sufficiently large Reynolds number. Discussion of the extra effectiveness of polymers for drag reduction is given within the framework of energy balance.

Mutual Displacement

During oilfield development, there exist multi-cycle gas–water mutual displacement processes. This means that a cycling process such as water driving gas–gas driving water–water driving gas is used for the operation of injection and production in a single well (such as foam huff and puff in single well or water-bearing gas storage). In this paper, by using core- and micro-pore scales model, we study the distribution of gas and water and the flow process of gas-water mutual displacement. We find that gas and water are easier to disperse in the porous media and do not flow in continuous gas and water phases. The Jamin effect of the gas or bubble becomes more severe and makes the flow mechanism of multi-cycle gas–water displacement different from the conventional water driving gas or gas driving water processes. Based on experiments of gas–water mutual displacement, the changing mechanism of gas–water displacement is determined. The results indicate that (1) after gas–water mutual displacement, the residual gas saturation of a gas–water coexistence zone becomes larger and the two-phase zone becomes narrower, (2) increasing the number of injection and production cycles causes the relative permeability of gas to increase and relative permeability for water to decrease, (3) it becomes easier for gas to intrude and the invaded water becomes more difficult to drive out and (4) the microcosmic fluid distribution of each stage have a great difference, which caused the two-phase region becomes narrower and effective volume of gas storage becomes narrower.

This scientific article is devoted to the problems associated with the flow of suspensions and emulsions and some simplifications of the real picture of the flow of a polydisperse medium are made. It is also stipulated that differential equations characterizing the motion of suspensions and emulsions should take into account the fundamental discontinuity of the medium and the physicochemical processes of heat and mass transfer occurring in it. Taking into account all these factors, a general equation for multiphase systems is proposed with certain simplifications that do not change. The behavior of particles in two-phase systems, their concentration, collision and coagulation are considered. As a result, it was concluded that there is a multifactorial interaction and mutual influence of both phases in a dispersed flow. A differential equation of motion of a single i-th spherical particle in suspension was proposed, and an equation describing the drag force of a solid spherical particles. Equations of conservation of mass and momentum are presented for one-dimensional laminar motion of two incompressible phases in a gravity field with the same pressure in the phases. Having studied the parameters of the flow of fine particles in a turbulent gas flow, some assumptions were made. It was found that the pulsating motion of particles, performed by them during one period of gas pulsations, can be represented as a change in the pulsating gas velocity in time. The parameter of entrainment of particles by a pulsating medium is an important characteristic in determining the transport coefficients in a turbulent flow. It is concluded that the presence of various kinds of particles in the liquid complicates the problem of solving hydromechanical problems in turbulent and laminar flow, and the assumptions given in the work facilitate the study of this problem.

Piston Cooling

To study factors affecting the formation and conversion of two-phase flow pattern as well as the heat transfer of piston cooling gallery, a transient visual target test bench was set up to research the oscillatory flow characteristics in the cooling gallery under idle condition of the engine. The computational fluid dynamics (CFD) was employed while dynamic mesh technology, SST k–ω turbulence model and volume of fluid (VOF) two-phase flow model were applied to simulate the flow process of piston cooling gallery so as to predict the distribution pattern of two-phase flow. Simulation results were in good agreement with that experimentally obtained. It was observed that in the reciprocating movement of the piston, the action of two-phase flow oscillation was severe, forming some unstable wave flows and slug flows. Results show that under the same pipe diameter, the increase of fluid viscosity results in the decrease of amplitude and the increase of the liquid slugs number as well as the enhancement on heat transfer effect. In addition, it was revealed that injection pressure has little effect on the two-phase flow pattern. However, when the pressure is reduced, the change of the liquid phase is weakened and the locations of flow pattern transition move towards to the behind, thus the impact on the heat transfer is also faint.

Flow Process

The production of coal seam gas initially requires pumping and removing significant amounts of water to sufficiently reduce the hydrostatic pressure in the subsurface, so that methane can desorb from the matrix and diffuse into the cleat systems; majority of the methane molecules gather into nucleation or bubbles. During the depression, the flow pattern of gas in cleats changes from bubble flow to slug flow, and finally forms circular flow. The significance of the bubble flow process—during which the liquid phase is continuous while the gas phase exists as small bubbles randomly distributed within the liquid—has not been emphasised because of its complexity. In this study, a free energy based two-phase lattice Boltzmann model is used to simulate the gas bubble/water flow behaviour in micro-cleats of a coal seam gas reservoir. The model was validated by comparison with analytical results based on dimensionless numbers, and good agreement was found in general. The influences of bubble shape, bubble size, and coal surface wettability on gas water two-phase flow in micro-cleats are discussed. The simulation results indicate that the bubble size and wettability of gas have significant impacts on the flow capacity of both gas and water. A decrease of the water flow rate is observed when large bubbles occur, and the gas flow rate decreases when the gas wettability becomes stronger. The bubble flow process significantly influences the drainage of water and the further gas production.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore gas/liquid two-phase flow is widely existed in industrial fields, especially in chemical engineering. Electrical resistance tomography (ERT) is considered to be one of the most promising techniques to monitor the transient flow process because of its advantages such as fast respond speed and cross-section imaging. However, maintaining high resolution in space together with low cost is still challenging for two-phase flow imaging because of the ill-conditioning of ERT inverse problem. Design/methodology/approach In this paper, a sparse reconstruction (SR) method based on the learned dictionary has been proposed for ERT, to accurately monitor the transient flow process of gas/liquid two-phase flow in a pipeline. The high-level representation of the conductivity distributions for typical flow regimes can be extracted based on denoising the deep extreme learning machine (DDELM) model, which is used as prior information for dictionary learning. Findings The results from simulation and dynamic experiments indicate that the proposed algorithm efficiently improves the quality of reconstructed images as compared to some typical algorithms such as Landweber and SR-discrete fourier transformation/discrete cosine transformation. Furthermore, the SR-DDELM has also used to estimate the important parameters of the chemical process, a case in point is the volume flow rate. Therefore, the SR-DDELM is considered an ideal candidate for online monitor the gas/liquid two-phase flow. Originality/value This paper fulfills a novel approach to effectively monitor the gas/liquid two-phase flow in pipelines. One deep learning model and one adaptive dictionary are trained via the same prior conductivity, respectively. The model is used to extract high-level representation. The dictionary is used to represent the features of the flow process. SR and extraction of high-level representation are performed iteratively. The new method can obviously improve the monitoring accuracy and save calculation time.

The osmotic interaction of mucopolysaccharides and plasma proteins, normally present in the interstitium, has been investigated. It has been found that hyaluronate-plasma protein mixtures may be treated as a two-phase system and that the two phases are in osmotic equilibrium. The osmotic pressures exerted by these mixtures are higher than the algebraic sum of the two components. At concentrations normally present in the interstitium of skin and muscle (0.6% mucopolysaccharides and 2% protein), the osmotic pressure exerted by the mixture is on the order of 10 mmHg, which is in agreement with predictions from earlier computer-simulation studies. The partition of fluid between the gel-like mucopolysaccharide compartment and the free-fluid containing the protein is approximately 50% in the "gel" phase at concentrations found in the interstitium. The volume exclusion effects of the interstitial mucopolysaccharides are significant, both in terms of selection of tracer molecules for interstitial volume measurements and also as an osmotic buffering mechanism which aids in maintaining the partition of fluid between the circulation and the interstitial space.
