Structure and principle of the new leakage current particulate matter (PM) sensor are introduced and further study is performed on the PM sensor with the combination of numerical simulation and bench test. High voltage electrode, conductive shell, and heaters are all built-in. Based on the principle of Venturi tube and maze structure design, this sensor can detect transient PM concentrations. Internal flow field of the sensor and distribution condition of PM inside the sensor are analyzed through gas-solid two-phase flow numerical simulation. The experiment was also carried out on the whole sensor system (including mechanical and electronic circuit part) and the output signals were analyzed. The results of simulation and experiment reveal the possibility of PM concentration (mass) detection by the sensor.

This work presents the simulation of the internal flow in a swirl atomizer. The geometry of the atomizer is calculated by analytical equations used in engineering. The numerical simulation of the two-phase flow is performed by using two equations k-ε turbulence model. The fluids are presented as two-fluid homogeneous model. The interface between two phases is calculated by free surface model. The distribution fields of the axial and tangential velocities, pressures and air core are obtained. The aim of this work is to compare the results obtained by numerical simulation with ones obtained analytically. Also, to study the internal fluids flow inside the atomizer.

Computational grids of the complex internal flow passage in air pre-filter were generated, using the partitioned mixed grids. Based on the method of user-defined functions controlling sliding mesh, a program of defining moving boundary was proposed, and numerical simulation of the rotor movement transient controlled by the flow field of air pre-filter was achieved. Based on the theory of Euler-Lagrange phase flows, stochastic particle trajectory model and cell source method were adopted to calculate the trajectories and concentration distributions of particle phase in air pre-filter.

A laboratory scale jet flotation column system was designed and air inflation for flotation column was provided by jet aerator with a chamber. In order to understand interior flow field distribution of jet aerator and flotation column, two-phase turbulent flow model was established by use of commercial computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software FLUENT 6.3.26. Modeling of the flow field was firstly established with GAMBIT 2.3.16; standard k-ε turbulence model and multiphase flow model MIXTURE were adopted for gas-liquid two-phase numerical simulation about jet aerator and flotation column. The simulation results show that gas-liquid two-phase mixing have been established by the cavity entrainment vortex flow in jet aerator with a chamber, and the distortion was really occurred although the reversed cone feed inlet have been designed, at the same time non-uniform distribution of air-bubble was also simulated. Simulation results can help to optimize the structure of the jet flotation column.

The numerical simulation of a 3-D model of the internal flow field for a Vortex slurry pump has been analyzed in this paper. The impact of different solids volume fraction on the distribution of solid particle was analyzed. The expression of the pump head and efficiency was derived by the energy equation. The results show that either on the long blades or on the short blades, the content of the solid particles increases with the increasing of the volume fraction. The results by the expression of the pump head and efficiency are compared with the results of the simulations. The conclusions show that the expression results are similar with the numerical simulation results, and the main factors of affecting the inner and outer characteristics are the solid particles.

The full flow field model of a widely used multi-blade centrifugal was built, using the CFD method, the steady and unsteady numerical simulation of the inner flow in the fan at different working conditions are presented. The numerical simulation results were validated by contrasting to the experiment results. The results displayed the characteristics of the velocity field, pressure field and pressure fluctuate in the centrifugal fan. The results can provide basis for optimizing the fan design and the internal flow, and have important value of engineering applications in the increase of the overall performance in operation.

To explore the screw centrifugal pump performance change, and the impact of solid-liquid two-phase flow on the screw centrifugal pump, the internal flow of type 150×100LN-32 centrifugal pump is used as the research object. Mixture multiphase flow model, standard k-ε turbulence model and the sliding mesh technique are used to carry out the unsteady numerical simulation to describe internal flow field in screw centrifugal pump. By Setting the monitoring point to get the pressure pulsation characteristics and predict the changes in the energy performance. Open laboratory bench tests are carried out to verify the reliability of the numerical methods. Based on this, the impact of the two-phase flow on the screw centrifugal pump is analyzed. The results indicate that the head-flow curve presents a hump-shaped with the increasing of the flow. The maximum of efficiency appears. At the same time, the change of the volume concentration of the solid phase has little effect on the energy performance of screw centrifugal pump. But at different times, the head decreases and the power increases with the increasing of the concentration.
