The stability characteristics are calculated for various Stokes numbers and particle concentrations. The results confirm the author's early calculations, which also shows that the numerical program is reliable. It is further shown that there is a critical value for the effect of Stokes number, which is about 2. The most damped mode occurs when Stokes number is of order of 10 for different particle concentrations and depends weakly on the wave number. The difference in the eigenfunctions and its derivatives between the particle-laden flow and the clean gas flow is insignificant for fine particles, while the difference for coarse particles is significant.展开更多

The simulation uses a two-way coupling model to consider the momentum and thermal interactions between the particles and turbulence. The study shows that the temperature fields display differences between the particle-laden flow with different specific heat particles and the particle-free flow,indicating that the particle specific heat is an important factor that affects the heat transfer process in a particle-laden flow. It is found that the heat transfer capacity of the particle-laden flow gradually increases with the increase of the particle specific heat. This is due to the positive contribution of the particle increase to the heat transfer. In addition,the Nusselt number of a particle-laden flow is compared with that of a particle-free flow.It is found that particles with a large specific heat strengthen heat transfer of turbulent flow, while those with small specific heat weaken heat transfer of turbulent flow.展开更多

A high accuracy spectral element method (SEM) was employed to simulate the gas flow field and a Lagrangian approach was used to compute the particles movement. Numerical results showed that at the same Stokes numbers, particles would be greatly impacted by the development of the coherent structure. But with different Stokes numbers, it can be seen that the large-scale vortex structures would influence the particle flow differently. While under different Reynolds numbers (150 and 200), there are no great changes in the particle laden flow.展开更多
