If a silo is poorly designed, an unreliable interrupted discharge often occurs. In this study, an in-house finite element (FE) program was modified to predict the particulate solids flow patterns during discharges from silos, and the effect of a double-cone insert on such flow patterns. In FE modeling, a Eulerian approach was adopted with an assumption of steady-state flow-a state that greatly facilitated investigations on the effects of double-cone inserts on the flow of particulate solids. Predictions were carried out on whether the discharge was in mass flow or funnel flow, associated with the inclination angle of the silo's hopper. Predicted results were in agreement with the Jenike Chart, and proved that an upper lateral pressure ratio value gave a better critical hopper half angle to achieve mass flow (EN 1991-4, 2006). The shape and size of the stagnant zone were further discussed to address the flow channel boundary between the flowing and static solids if the discharge was in a funnel pattern. Results also showed the effects of a double-cone insert on the flow patterns which con- verted silos from funnel flow to mass flow up to a certain hopper inclination angle and would improve the flow pattern even for shallower angles. Experiments were carried out to verify some of the predicted results. Some qualitative comparisons were made between the predicted results and experimental mea- surements, which indicated that further efforts are needed in predicting the shape of the stagnant zone (flow channel boundary) during funnel flow discharges.展开更多

Different means of aerodynamic actuation, such as variations of the distance between discharge channels, the number of discharge channels, the DC discharge voltage, the angle of ramp, and the application of magnetic field, in a supersonic flow of M = 2.2 are employed. Results of both the schlieren and pressure test indicated that when the plasma aerodynamic actuation is applied, the starting point of the shock wave was shifted 1 mm to 8 mm upstream on average, the shock wave angle was reduced 470 to 8% on average, and the shock wave intensity was decreased by 8% to 26%. The local plasma aerodynamic actuation could generate an extrusive plasma layer with high temperature and pressure. This plasma layer caused an upstream-shift of the separating point of the boundary layer. which changed the structure of the original shock wave. Moreover, in a simulation study, the plasma aerodynamic actuation was simplified as a thermal source term added to the Navier-Stokes equations, after all, the results obtained showed consistency with the experimental results.展开更多

New relationship is derived between the percentage of shear carried by the flood plains (%S fp ) and the percentage of area occupied by the flood plains (%Afp ) . The equation so derived is taken as the basis to develop a new methodology to predict the stage discharge relationship specifically for wide compound channels using Darcy's friction factor ( f ) for the main channel and flood plain regions. The methodology also is used for compound channels with smaller width ratios by applying the appropriate relation for %S fp derived earlier by different researchers and seems to work well. Next, as a corollary to the methodology, separate formulae are proposed to estimate flow distribution in main channel and flood plain regions. The proposed method and its corollary are tested for their validity against well-published small-scale data series of pre-vious researchers along with some large-scale data series from EPSRC-FCF (A-Series) compound channel experiments and very good agreement is observed between the measured values and predicted values for total flow as well as zonal distribution of flow. The methodology is also applied to some compound river section data published in literature and is found to serve well the purpose of predicting flow in real world application. This new method gives the least RMS value of error for discharge prediction compared with some other well-known methods used for estimating stage-discharge relation in compound channels by considering all data sets.展开更多

In order to provide a technical support to expand the high altitude ignition envelope of aero-engines, in this article we propose a novel ignition technology, i.e., "precombustion plasma jet ignition technology". In this paper, we also design a pre-combustion plasma jet igniter. Its discharge characteristics, jet characteristics, and ignition effects are studied. The results show that increasing the equivalent ratio of jet gas can enhance the discharge stability and increase the duty cycle. At the same time, it can reduce working power and energy consumption. The increase of equivalent ratio in jet gas can enhance the length and ignition area of plasma jet.In the process of ignition, the pre-combustion plasma jet igniter has obvious advantages, suchn as shortening the ignition delay time and enlarging the ignition boundary. When the airflow velocity is 39.11 m/s and the inlet air temperature is80℃, compared with the spark igniter and the air plasma jet igniter, the pre-combustion plasma jet igniter has an ignition boundary that is expanded by 319.8% and 55.7% respectively.展开更多

A linear stability theory(LST) is utilized to predict the evolution of the eigenmodes, and the frequency of the artificial disturbance is chosen according to the LST results. The artificial disturbance is generated by glowing discharge on the surface of the plate close to the leading edge. The Rayleigh-scattering visualization and particle image velocimetry(PIV) measurements are performed. By comparing the experimental results with artificial disturbances with those under the natural condition(without artificial disturbances), the present paper shows that the second-mode instability waves are significantly stimulated by the artificial disturbances, and the boundary layer transition is effectively triggered.展开更多

The discharge was carried out in a planar DBD system with segmented-electrodes driven by square-wave voltage. The results show that the glow DBD originates in the center of the electrode and expands outward to the electrode edge during each half cycle of the voltage, forming a radial structure. The discharge decays firstly in the inner area but sustains longer in the edge area, showing a reversed discharge area. The discharge cannot completely cover the entire electrode surface, but remains a border of nonor weak discharge. The fluid modeling shows a similar result in agreement with the experiments. The simulations indicate that the electric field in the edge area is distorted due to the boundary effect so that the electric field and charge distribution are different from that in the inner part. The distorted field reduces the longitudinal component near the edge and causes the local field to be lower than that in the center, and hence makes the discharge behindhand. It also induces a transverse field that makes the discharge extend radially outward to the edge. The boundary effect plays an important role in the glow DBD structure.展开更多

文摘Demonstrative experiments on the variation patterns of the position, angle, and intensity of shock wave are presented. Different means of aerodynamic actuation, such as variations of the distance between discharge channels, the number of discharge channels, the DC discharge voltage, the angle of ramp, and the application of magnetic field, in a supersonic flow of M = 2.2 are employed. Results of both the schlieren and pressure test indicated that when the plasma aerodynamic actuation is applied, the starting point of the shock wave was shifted 1 mm to 8 mm upstream on average, the shock wave angle was reduced 470 to 8% on average, and the shock wave intensity was decreased by 8% to 26%. The local plasma aerodynamic actuation could generate an extrusive plasma layer with high temperature and pressure. This plasma layer caused an upstream-shift of the separating point of the boundary layer. which changed the structure of the original shock wave. Moreover, in a simulation study, the plasma aerodynamic actuation was simplified as a thermal source term added to the Navier-Stokes equations, after all, the results obtained showed consistency with the experimental results.

文摘Results of research into a compound channel having width ratio (a) in excess of 11 are presented in the form of boun-dary shear distributions across the compound cross section. New relationship is derived between the percentage of shear carried by the flood plains (%S fp ) and the percentage of area occupied by the flood plains (%Afp ) . The equation so derived is taken as the basis to develop a new methodology to predict the stage discharge relationship specifically for wide compound channels using Darcy's friction factor ( f ) for the main channel and flood plain regions. The methodology also is used for compound channels with smaller width ratios by applying the appropriate relation for %S fp derived earlier by different researchers and seems to work well. Next, as a corollary to the methodology, separate formulae are proposed to estimate flow distribution in main channel and flood plain regions. The proposed method and its corollary are tested for their validity against well-published small-scale data series of pre-vious researchers along with some large-scale data series from EPSRC-FCF (A-Series) compound channel experiments and very good agreement is observed between the measured values and predicted values for total flow as well as zonal distribution of flow. The methodology is also applied to some compound river section data published in literature and is found to serve well the purpose of predicting flow in real world application. This new method gives the least RMS value of error for discharge prediction compared with some other well-known methods used for estimating stage-discharge relation in compound channels by considering all data sets.
