Numerical Simulation of Flow over Aerators on the Chute with an Anti-Arc Section by Turbulence Flow Model

Abstract:

For a flow chute with complex boundary conditions, such as with an anti-arc section, the flow behaviors and characteristics of aeration after the aerator are more complex than that in the straight chute. Based on the k~ε turbulence flow model together with VOF method, flow velocity fields over the aerator on the chute with anti-arc section were numerical simulated. Model experiments were investigated to verify the simulation results. Comparison shows that the calculation results agree well with the observed experimental data. Some factors including radius of the anti arc, aerator’s height and takeoff angel which influence aerated flow are discussed.
