Abstract: Feed angle have a great effect on the flotation efficiency of self-priming centrifugal flotation cell.In order to improve the efficiency of flotation,the effect of feed angle on the flow field in a self-priming centrifugal flotation cell was investigated using STAR CCM+.The distribution law of velocity,pressure,turbulent kinetic energy under different angles was gotten.The turbulent kinetic energy and the pressure difference increased with the feed angle. Result shows that the feed angle acting on the interior flow field is significant and the feed angle of 20º is more conducive to flotation than others.Conclusion can provide a theoretical foundation for improving flotation efficiency and optimizing flotation structure.

Abstract: Using the Gidaspow model as the momentum exchange coefficient to take a full-loop simulation of miniature circulating fluidized bed gasifier (CFBG) in the lab, and taking mutual influence of different parts in consideration, it focus on the gas-solid flow structure in the riser in this paper. The heterogeneous behavior in the CFBG riser and the radial profiles of solid volume fraction under different solid inventories in simulation are showed in this paper as a replenishment of certain data which are hard to measure in experiments. The results showed it can’t form an obvious core-annulus flow because of the riser’s high height-diameter ratio and the big refeed line diameter. There are clusters growing and dissipation in a short time. A turning point of pressure drop may be seem as a separation of dense area and dilute area.The three-dimensional (3D) simulation revealed the solid flux and the pressure drop agree with the experimental data.

Abstract: Applied the finite volume method combining two-equations turbulence model,the influence of fluid dynamic characteristics on XCP probe under different factors be studied The fluid dynamic characteristics were researched under different influencing factors, such as falling speed, rotating rate,seawater density,etc. The drag coefficient under the different falling speeds and the limited velocity of submarine steady motion were obtained. Compared with the experimental results, the simulated results agree well with experimental results, the experiments have show the validity and feasibility of the numerical analysis method. These results will provide theory reference for selecting the reasonable rotating rate, analyzing stability and the movement rule of probe in the water, choosing suitable test parameters for XCP probe of different seawaters.
