The Matching of Flow Control and Structure Parameters for the Bitumen Foaming Technology

Article Preview

Abstract:

A new driving device is developed for precise flow control of bitumen foaming. Based on the theoretical studies like fluid dynamics, contact heat transfer, phase change, multiphase flow and turbulent flow theories, a reasonable control model for the bitumen foaming behavior is built. And the CFD simulation analysis of the model with the testing parameters is taken. The results show that the foamed bitumen outlet flow follows the quadratic curve control law with the new driving device.
