    The hydrocyclone of main diameter 28mm with a typical variable diameter pipe structure was selected as the research object, and the interaction of the fluid and the structure was considered on the basis of the hypothesis of small deformation. The two-way fluid structure interaction (FSI) model of the hydrocyclone with variable diameter pipes was presented in this paper, and the related numerical simulation and experimental research was also carried out. The structure vibration characteristics of the structure were analyzed base on the fluid structure interaction, and the vibration characteristics of the structure were obtained. The vibration characteristics of the between the results of numerical simulation and experimental were consistent. Through above analysis showed that the two-way FSI calculation model of hydrocyclone with variable diameter pipe was reasonable. The influence of coupling effect on flow field couldn’t be ignored. The interaction between fluid and structure changed the movement characteristics of the structure, which should be considered in the design and application of hydrocyclone

For the first time, an increase in separation efficiency due to vibrational and filtering principles of separation has been theoretically justified. Scientific and theoretical foundations of hydroaeroelastic interaction of separation elements with the gas-liquid flow have been developed. The existence of a critical Weber number in the process of secondary crushing of a dropping liquid has been theoretically substantiated. The scientific and theoretical fundamentals of the liquid film downflow have been developed with combined convective heat transfer on the cooled surfaces of contact elements. The scientific foundations of the theory of ceil structures have been created for the study of separation and filtration processes. A formula for determining the specific interfacial surface in the processes of chemical technology has been clarified, and the mathematical model of the process of energy transfer from a vibrational actuator to a fluid melt in a vibrational priller has been refined. The vibrational impact on the liquid dispersion process has been investigated. The mathematical models of the main and secondary processes in separators and vibrational prillers were further developed. The theoretical foundations for parameter identification of the pneumatic classification process of bulk material have been developed. The proposed approaches have been extended to methods for studying prilling processes, spraying liquids, and nutrient release from encapsulated mineral fertilizers

    Towards a mesoscale rheology model for aqueous particulate suspensions

    Get PDF
    Particulate suspensions are ubiquitous and diverse; pharmaceutical formulations, biological fluids, magma and foodstuffs are just few of numerous examples. In many cases, the flow behaviour (rheology) of the suspension is critical to its function. A key rheological property is viscosity; a measure of a substance’s resistance to flow. This work aims to understand molecular-level mechanisms responsible for determining flow behaviour in moderately dense suspensions; 35% particles by volume (i.e., volume fraction 0.35). The industrial application of interest to this thesis is catalysis; namely, the ‘washcoat’, a key component in the performance of catalytic converters. A typical washcoat formulation is an aqueous suspension, comprising a high surface-area support powder, an active catalyst material, together with organic additives and certain salts used to optimise properties of the washcoat; including its flow behaviour. Of these components, this work investigates ‘salt-specific effects’; i.e. the influence of differing salt-types. Investigation is conducted at molecular and macroscopic resolution via simulations and experiments, respectively. The research approach probes the constituents of a suspension: the aqueous phase, the particle-aqueous phase interface, and particle interactions. Molecular dynamics simulations are employed as the foundation of this analysis, with experiments - rheology, nuclear magnetic resonance and dynamic light scattering - utilised alongside. A final set of rheology experiments is conducted on particulate suspensions of 35% volume fraction, in pure water and the aqueous salt solutions of interest. At all stages of analysis, results suggest that macroscopic behaviours are a cumulative manifestation of phenomena at molecular resolution. However, such phenomena are varied; the challenge lies in identifying which mechanisms are relevant to the behaviour of interest, how they work together, and how they manifest cumulatively. Towards a mesoscale rheology model for aqueous particulate suspensions, results are discussed in terms of input for such a model, which would predict rheology as a function of particle loading, ionic strength and possibly other factors, in future work
