Heat transfer study from the heated square cylinder at a different orientation angle to the stream of nanofluids has been investigated numerically. CuO-based nanofluids were used to elucidate the significant effect of parameters: Reynolds number (1–40), nanoparticle volume fraction (0.00–0.05), the diameter of the NPs (30–100 mn) and the orientation of square cylinder (0–90). The numerical results were expressed in terms of isotherm contours and average Nusselt number to explain the effect of relevant parameters. Over the range of conditions, the separation of the boundary layers of nanofluids increased with the size of the NPs as compared to pure water. NPs volume fraction and its size had a significant effect on heat transfer rate. The square cylinder of orientation angle (45) gained a more efficient heat transfer cylinder than other orientation angles. Finally, the correlations were developed for the average Nusselt number in terms of the relevant parameters for 45 orientation of the cylinder for new applications.

This work is devoted to the analysis of the linear temporal stability of a laminar dynamic boundary layer on a horizontal porous plane plate. The basic flow is assumed to be laminar and two-dimensional. The basic flow velocity profiles are obtained by numerically solving the Blasius equation using the Runge-Kutta method. The perturbations of these basic solutions are expressed in the form of three-dimensional Tollmien-Schlichting waves. The formulation of the stability problem leads to the Orr-Sommerfeld equation modified by the permeability parameter (Darcy number) and the small Reynolds number. This equation is given in a general form which can be applied to the Chebyshev domain and the boundary layer domain and solved numerically using the Chebyshev spectral collocation method. The marginal stability diagrams, the critical Reynolds numbers and the eigenvalue spectra are obtained for different values of the parameters which have modified the stability equation. Numerical solutions indicate the importance of the effect of these parameters on the flow stability characteristics.

Purpose: Atherosclerosis causes plaque to build-up in arteries. Effect of the specific local hemodynamic environment around an atherosclerotic plaque on the thrombosis formation does not remain quite clear but is believed to be crucial. The aim of this study is to uncover the flow effects on plaques formation. Methods: To study the mechanically regulated plaque formation, the flow fields in artery blood vessels with different stenosis rates at various Reynolds numbers were simulated numerically with the two-dimensional axisymmetric models, and the hemodynamic characteristics around the plaque were scaled with stenosis rate and Reynolds number. Results: The results showed that increases of both Reynolds number and stenosis rate facilitated the occurrence of flow separation phenomenon, extended recirculation zone, and upregulated the maximum normalized wall shear stress near the plaque throat section while downregulated the minimal normalized wall shear stress at the front shoulder of plaque, as it should be; in the atherosclerotic plaque leeside of the recirculation zone, an obvious catch bond region of wall shear stress might exist especially under low Reynolds number with stenosis rate smaller than 30%. This catch bond region in the plaque leeside might be responsible for the LBF (low blood flow)-enhanced formation of the atherosclerotic plaque. Conclusions: This work may provide a novel insight into understanding the biomechanical effects behind the formation and damage of atherosclerotic plaques and propose a new strategy for preventing atherosclerotic diseases.

Zbadano zjawisko wzrostu mocy mieszania podczas opróżniania zbiorników z pracującymi mieszadłami turbinowo-łopatkowymi o różnych kątach pochylenia łopatek. Ustalono, że względny wzrost zapotrzebowania na moc rósł wraz ze zmniejszaniem się kąta pochylania łopatek w zakresie 15-60° i występował przede wszystkim dla przypadku, kiedy mieszadło pompowało ciecz na dół zbiornika. Dla mieszadeł o łopatkach usytuowanych prostopadle do płaszczyzny mieszadła wzrost mocy nie występował.

An increase of the mixing power was obsd. during emptying tanks with turbine-blade impellers of various blade pitch angles. The decrease of blade pitch angle from 60° down to 15° (occurred primarily for the case when the impeller pumped the liq. to the bottom of the tank) resulted in a relative increase in power consumption. For impellers with blades located perpendicular to the agitating plane, this phenomenon did not occur.

This paper reports an experimental comparative thermal analysis of a flat plate heat exchanger and corrugated plate heat exchanger (CPHE) of different corrugation angles using ethylene glycol as test fluid. The experiments were carried out in counter current mode using water as hot fluid at 75°C. Design of each plate provided with eleven thermocouple sensors to determine the temperatures, in which seven were used to measure the surface temperature of plate and four were used to measure the inlet and outlet bulk temperature of cold and hot fluids. The mass flow rate of test fluid, varied between 0.5 to 4 liters per minute and corresponding steady state temperatures is measured. Using experimental readings, temperature difference between the inlet and outlet streams (∆T), logarithmic mean temperature difference (LMTD) and overall heat transfer coefficient (U) are determined. The obtained ∆T and U values of corrugation angles (30°, 50°) of CPHE were compared with those of flat plate heat exchangers. For corrugation angle of 30° and 50°, the ∆T and U values increases with increase of mass flow rate of the fluid. The turbulence in the flow increases due to increase in the corrugation angle, which results in the enhancement of heat transfer. Moreover, thermal effectiveness (ε) is estimated using NTU method and compared for all the plates. As the NRe values gradually increases, ε decreases for flat plate and CPHE (θ = 30° and θ= 50°). At low NRe value of 114, observed a maximum ε (≅0.998) value for corrugated angle of 50°. There is adequate contact time between the cold and hot fluids at low Reynolds number, so maximum rate of heat transfer is possible, as a result ε values are high.

In this paper, an unsteady 2-D incompressible fluid flow with heat and mass transfer in a four-sided lid driven square cavity is investigated numerically. The top, bottom, left, and right walls of the square cavity move to the right, left, downward and upward respectively. All four sides of the cavity move with a uniform velocity. The flow variables are simulated below the critical Reynolds numbers with isothermal and mass-transfer conditions in the square cavity. We have used a streamfunction-vorticity (ψ - ξ) formulation to investigate the fluid flow in terms of flow variables ψ, ξ, T and C at low Reynolds numbers (Re). The Prandtl number (Pr) and Schmidt number (Sc) have been chosen as 6:62 and 10, 50, 100, 150 respectively, in order to calculate the numerical solutions of T and C. The matrix method has been used to evaluate the stability and convergence of the numerical scheme. The conditions obtained from the matrix method have been used to arrive at the numerical solutions with desired accuracy.

This article presents a two-dimensional steady viscous flow simulation past circular and square cylinders at low Reynolds numbers (based on the diameter) by the finite volume method with a non-orthogonal body-fitted grid. Diffusive fluxes are discretized using central differencing scheme, and for convective fluxes upwind and central differencing schemes are blended using a ‘deferred correction’ approach. A simplified pressure correction equation is derived, and proper under-relaxation factors are used so that computational cost is reduced without adversely affecting the convergence rate. The governing equations are expressed in Cartesian velocity components and solution is carried out using the SIMPLE algorithm for collocated arrangement of variables. The mesh yielding grid-independent solution is then utilized to study, for the very first time, the effect of the Reynolds number on the separation bubble length, separation angle, and drag coefficients for both circular and square cylinders. Finally, functional relationships between the computed quantities and Reynolds number (Re) are proposed up to Re = 40. It is found that circular cylinder separation commences between Re= 6.5-6.6, and the bubble length, separation angle, total drag vary as Re, Re-0.5, Re-0.5 respectively. Extrapolated results obtained from the empirical relations for the circular cylinder show an excellent agreement with established data from the literature. For a square cylinder, the bubble length and total drag are found to vary as Re and Re-0.666, and are greater than these for a circular cylinder at a given Reynolds number. The numerical results substantiate that a square shaped cylinder is more bluff than a circular one.

In the present work, a solution to the problem of viscous flow in a rectangular region with two moving parallel walls is obtained by using a hybrid finite volume scheme. The discretized governing equations are solved iteratively, and thereby the flow variables are computed numerically. The results for velocity and pressure in horizontal and vertical directions through the centre of a rectangular region are elucidated. The nature of velocity profiles and pressure for different Reynolds numbers in the horizontal and vertical directions through the geometric centre was analyzed with the help of pictorial representations. The present results are compared with the available benchmark results and we have found that they are not in disagreement.

To transport of the air in the pipeline, an analytical model is developed that takes into account the gas velocity, its kinematic and dynamic characteristics - density, viscosity depending on the pressure in a given space of the pipeline. The analytical model makes it possible to calculate the coefficient of friction of gas transportation in the pipeline at intervals of the absolute pressure from 220 to 2 kPa and M < 1 Mach numbers, depending on the diameter and length of the pipeline and physical and technological characteristics of the gas. The K1* aspect ratio is proposed, which characterizes in time the ratio of the dynamic force of movement of gas to the static pressure related to the diameter of the pipeline. The coefficient of air friction was modeled according to the vacuum pressure as a parameter of density and air flow. Air flow was taken from 1.917·10-3 m 3/s to 44.5·10-3 m 3/s respectively, diameters from 0.030 to 0.070 m and Mach number was M = 0.005-0.13. At the vacuum and excess pressures with increasing of Reynolds number and decreasing of Mach number the gas friction coefficient increased linearly. According to the simulation results as the pressure loss and the diameter of the pipeline are increased the friction coefficient increased as well. Analogically, at the vacuum metric pressure when the pressure loss and the diameter of the pipeline are increased the friction coefficient increased. At the pipeline internal diameters of 22, 30, 36 mm accordingly for pressure losses from 2 to 14 kPa the coefficient of air friction varies from 0.006 to 54.527 respectively.

Numerical simulations of two-dimensional, steady, incompressible lid driven flow in a square cavity were investigated in this work. A commercial finite volume package of ANSYS-FLUENT was used to analyze and visualize the nature of the flow inside the cavity at different Reynolds Numbers. In addition, a MATLAB code was developed and validated by comparing the results with the reference values from literature. Staggered grid was employed in the discretization of the cavity to avoid checkerboard pressure while developing the code. The governing equations were discretized in terms of velocity and pressure fields. The artificial compressibility method was used to de-couple the pressure and velocity terms in the governing equations. A 129×129 grid system was used in both cases. The effects of Reynolds number (100≤ Re ≤ 1000) on the flow characteristics were illustrated through an analysis of stream function, velocity vector, pressure co-efficient and velocity contours. The thinning of the wall boundary layers with an increase in the Reynolds number is evident from the u and v velocity profiles along the vertical and horizontal lines at the geometric center, although the rate of this thinning is very slow for Re> 5000.

This article indicated at erosion as one of the causes of degradation of surfaces washed by fluids and conditions of its occurrence. Corrosive – erosive theory of metal surface degradation has been discussed linking it with an instance of destructive processes taking place in cylinder liner blocks of combustion engines. Physics and conditions influencing processes on liquid – washed operational surface phase boundary have been justified. Out of the contemporary hypotheses explaining the physics of cavitation erosion, the bubble theory has been considered. A mathematical model of erosion has been presented in the context of cavitation implosion energy determining crash interactions of liquid cumulative fluxes on the washed surface. Occurring plastic deformations have been graphically explained linking them with the occurrence of fatigue micro-cracks and later with erosive pits. Influence of initial steel hardness on intensity of cavitation erosion has been checked. Discussion of ways to increase metal surface resistance to cavitation erosion has been carried out.

In this study, a finite volume method (FVM) is suitably used for solving the problem of a fully coupled fluid flow in a rectangular domain with slip boundary conditions. Numerical solutions for the flow variables, viz. velocity, and pressure have been computed. The FVM, with an upwind scheme, has been implemented to discretize the governing equations of the present problem. The well known SIMPLE algorithm is employed for pressure-velocity coupling. This was executed with the aid of a computer program developed and run in a C-compiler. Computations have been performed for unknown variables with Reynolds numbers (Re) = 50, 100, 250, 500, 750 and 1000. The behavior of steady-state solutions of velocity and pressure of the fluid along horizontal and vertical through geometric center of the rectangular domain have been illustrated. We observed that, with the increase of the Reynolds number, the absolute value of velocity components decreases whereas the pressure value increases.

Podstawowym surowcem energetycznym w Polsce jest węgiel. W ostatnich latach podejmowano próby spalania koloidalnych zawiesin pyłu węglowego w oleju napędowym lub opałowym. Przy pomiarach przepływu takich zawiesin, może dochodzić do wytrącania i zalegania w układach przesyłowych osadów, co w efekcie może prowadzić do zaburzeń strumienia przepływu. Wiarygodność pomiaru tego parametru, mogą zapewnić kryzy segmentowe. W artykule zaprezentowano wyniki badań przepływowych kryz segmentowych z przytarczowym punktowym odbiorem ciśnienia różnicowego, przy niewielkich liczbach Reynoldsa oraz symulacje numeryczne dla wybranej kryzy. W badaniach jako medium wykorzystano wodę.

In Poland coal is the main energy resource. As part of the conducted research attempts were made at using suspensoids containing coal dust in gas oil and furnace oil. This leads to a reduction in NOx and SOx percentage without the need for an expensive desulphurization and dust extraction installation. However, there is a need for using cheap but reliable systems to measure the flow of the injected fuel. In real operating conditions various residues may often deposit in fuel transmission systems, which in turn can lead to flow fluctuations. Reliable flow factor measurement requirements can be met by segmental orifices. In the article, based on a research and measurement station, presented were the results of flow measurements with segmental orifices with point reception of differential pressure for small Reynolds numbers as well as numerical simulations. For the selected segmental orifice the flow factor characteristic in the function of the Reynolds number was calculated. In the research, water was used as the medium; the next stage of the research will involve the realization of the proposed solution with the use of hydraulic oil.

The energy industry in Poland is mostly based on coal as an energy resource. Until the half of the previous century studies and attempts were made at burning coal dust-based suspensoids in gas oil and furnace oil, with positive results. For economic reasons, studies and attempts were made at using coal and water-based CWL (Coal-Water Liquid) suspensoids as fuel in the heating industry. Using this fuel leads to a reduction in NOx and SOx percentage without the need for an expensive desulphurization and dust extraction installation, which is a huge economic and ecological advantage. For technological reasons required are systems for measuring the flow of the injected fuel that are cheap in use, reliable and residue-resistant. These requirements can be met by segmental and eccentric orifices. In the article, presented was a research and measurement station which enables its users to conduct introductory flow measurements for eccentric orifices with point reception of differential pressure for small Reynolds numbers. The results of the flow characteristic measurements as well as of numerical simulations were presented in the form of tables and charts. For the selected eccentric orifice the C flow parameter in the Reynolds number function was determined. The analysis of the study results presented in the article refers to the flow of water. The next planned stage of the research will involve flow studies and measurements with the use of hydraulic oil as the medium.

Curved pipes are very often used in hydraulic systems facilitating compact, lightweight designs. But they can also be the cause of complex secondary flows as the curvature brings change of velocity profile, generation of vortices and production of hydraulic losses. In the present study, turbulent single phase flows through circular 90˚ curved bend for different curvature ratio (Rc/D = 1 to 5), defined as the bend mean curvature radius (Rc) to pipe diameter (D) is investigated numerically for different Reynolds number (Re) ranging from 1×105 to 10×105. The purpose of this study is to simulate numerically the flow pattern and characterize the swirling secondary flow in 90˚ bends. Flow simulation using CFD techniques are performed to understand these phenomena. The k − " model with SIMPLE method is used for present study. After validation of present model with published experimental data, a detail study has been performed to characterize the flow separation and the dependency of swirl intensity on Reynolds number and curvature ratio in 90˚ pipe bend for single phase turbulent flow.

Heap bioleaching is a well establish commercial process for metal recovery from low-grade ores. Bioleaching process carried out in the heap is influenced by microbiological, chemical, and hydrodynamic factors. In this paper, the column tests data are presented. The effect of various additives (pyrite, sulphur, glass, and polyethylene) to the black ore on the copper recovery during the black shale bioleaching has been evaluated. For the bacteria growth two different media (2K and 9K) were used. The ore material selected for the bioleaching experiments was taken from the industrial flotation circuit (middlings from 1st cleaning) from Lubin Concentrator. The bioleaching tests were conducted with different amounts of additives which were added to the column packed with black shale ore. These experiments reveal that the microbial cells immobilization has an effect on the copper recovery. The role of hydrodynamic conditions in porous media is also described in the context of copper recovery. Under the optimal conditions, the extraction of copper was obtained more than 70% in 14 days, which is better than bioleaching without additives.

Combination of computed microtomography and fluid flow simulation approach leads to rock permeability estimation as a reservoir parameter deciding about the rock potential to fluid (hydrocarbons and/or formation water) flow in porous space. For the proper simulation run and results two aspects are needed to be considered: modelling approach and the flow regime. The Knudsen number classifies the modelling approach and Reynolds number – flow regime. The Knudsen number and Reynolds number were calculated for the Carboniferous sandstone sample, cored at 3154 m depth and with total porosity obtained from micro-CT equal to 12.6%.
