Numerical Simulation of Flow in the Hartmann Resonance Tube and Flow in the Ultrasonic Gas Atomizer

LI Bo, HU Guo-hui, ZHOU Zhe-wei

2007, 28(11): 1261-1271.

Abstract(3323) PDF(802)

Abstract:
The gas flow in the Hartmann resonance tube was numerically investigated by the finite volume method based on the Roe solver. The oscillation of the flow was studied with the presence of a needle actuator set along the nozzle axis. Numerical results agree well with the theoretical and experimental results available. Numerical results indicate that the resonance mode of the resonance tube will switch by means of removing or adding the actuator. The gas flow in the ultrasonic gas atomization (USGA) nozzle was also studied by the same numerical methods. Oscillation caused by the Hartmann resonance tube structure, coupled with a secondary resonator, in the USGA nozzle was investigated. Effects of the variation of parameters on the oscillation were studied. The mechanism of the transition of subsonic flow to supersonic flow in the USGA nozzle was also discussed based on numerical results.

Abstract(2483) PDF(913)

Abstract:
It was derived that micro-scale amount level of average pore radius of clay changed from 0.01 to 0.1 micron by an equivalent concept of flow in porous media. There is good agreement between the derived results and test ones. Results of experiments show that flow in micro-scale pore of saturated clays follows law of nonlinear flow. Theoretical analyses demonstrate that an interaction of solid-liquid interfaces varies inversely with the square root of permeability or porous radius. The interaction is an important reason why nonlinear flow in saturated clays occurs. An exact mathematical model was presented for nonlinear flow in micro-scale pore of saturated clays. Dimension and physical meanings of parameters of it are definite. A new law of nonlinear flow in saturated clays was established. It can describe characteristics of flow curve of the whole process of the nonlinear flow from low hydraulic gradient to high one. Darcy law is a special case of the new law. A mathematical model was presented for consolidation of nonlinear flow in radius direction in saturated clays with constant rate based on the new law of nonlinear flow. Equations of average mass conservation and moving boundary, and formula of excess pore pressure distribution and average degree of consolidation for nonlinear flow in saturated clay were derived by using an idea of viscous boundary layer, a method of steady state instead of transient state and a method of integral of an equation. Laws of excess pore pressure distribution and changes of average degree of consolidation with time were obtained. Results show that velocity of moving boundary decreases because of the nonlinear flow in saturated clay. The results can provide geology engineering and geotechnical engineering of saturated clay with new scientific bases. Calculations of average degree of consolidation of Darcy flow are a special case of that of the nonlinear flow.

YU Ming-zhou, LIN Jian-zhong, CHEN Li-hua

2007, 28(11): 1287-1295.

Abstract(2551) PDF(733)

Abstract:
Large eddy simulations of nanoparticle coagulation in an incompressible planar jet were performed. The particle is described using a moment method to approximate the particle general dynamics equations. The time-averaged results based on 3 000 time steps for every case were obtained to explore the influence of the Schmidt number and the Damkohler number on the nanoparticle dynamics. The results show that the changes of Schmidt number have the influence on the number concentration of nanoparticles only when the particle diameter is less than 1nm for the fixed gas parameters. The number concentration of particles for small particles decreases more rapidly along the flow direction, and the nanoparticles with larger Schmidt number have a narrower distribution along the transverse direction. The smaller nanoparticles coagulate and disperse easily, grow rapidly hence show a stronger polydispersity. The smaller coagulation time scale can enhance the particle collision and coagulation. Frequent collision and coagulation bring a great increase in particle size. The larger the Damkohler number, the higher the particle polydispersity.

Abstract(2954) PDF(872)

Abstract:
An analysis was carried out to study the steady flow and heat transfer characteristics from a continuous flat surface moving in a parallel free stream of an electrically conducting non-Newtonian viscoelastic fluid. The flow is subjected to a transverse uniform magnetic field. The constitutive equation of the fluid is modeled by that for a second grade fluid. Numerical results were obtained for the distribution of velocity and temperature profiles.

Structural First Failure Times Under Non-Gaussian Stochastic Behavior

HE Jun

2007, 28(11): 1325-1332.

Abstract(2403) PDF(811)

Abstract:
An analytical moment-based method for calculating structural first failure times under nonGaussian stochastic behaviour is proposed. In the method, a power series that is constant can be obtained from response moments (skewness, kurtosis, etc.) was used firstly to map a non-Gaussian structural response into a standard Gaussian process, then mean up-crossing rates, mean clump size and the initial passage probability of a critical barrier level by the original structural response were estimated. Finally, the formula for calculating first failure times was established on the assumption that corrected up-crossing rates are independent. An analysis of a nonlinear single-degree-of-freedom dynamical system excited by a Gaussian model of load not only demonstrates the usage of the proposed method but also shows the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed method by comparisons between the present method and other methods such as Monte Carlo simulation and the traditional Gaussian model.

2007, 28(11): 1333-1339.

Abstract(2552) PDF(842)

Abstract:
By using a matrix' continuous transition method and the sub-matrix' estimate of spectral radius methods etc., some decision methods for a generalized H-matrix under positive definite matrix conditions were researched. Some new sufficient conditions for generalized H-matrices are obtained. When a block matrix degenerates a point matrix, these conditions then become H-matrix's sufficient conditions.

ZHANG Tian-si, ZHU De-ming

2007, 28(11): 1353-1362.

Abstract(2358) PDF(680)

Abstract:
Concerns double homoclinic loops with or bitflips and two resonant eigenvalues in a fourdimensional system. We use the solution of a normal form system to construct a singular map in some neighborhood of the equilibrium, and the solution of a linear variational system to construct a regular map in some neighborhood of the double homoclinic loops, then compose them to get the important Poincar map. A simple calculation gives explicitly an expression of the associated successor function. By a delicate analysis of the bifurcation equation, we obtain the condition that the original double homoclinic loops are kept, and prove the existence and the existence regions of the large 1-homo clinic orbit bifurcation surface, 2-fold large 1-periodic or bit bifurcation surface, large 2-homoclinic or bit bifur cation surface and their appro ximate expressions. We also locate the large periodic orbits and large homoclinic orbits and their number.

Instantaneous Spectrum Estimation of Earthquake Ground Motions Based on Unscented Kalman Filter Method

LI Ying-min, DONG Yin-feng, LAI Ming

2007, 28(11): 1370-1378.

Abstract(2673) PDF(951)

Abstract:
Representing earthquake ground motion as time varying ARMA model, the instantaneous spectrum can be determined only by the time varying coefficients of the corresponding ARMA model. Then, unscented Kalman filter was introduced to estimate the time varying coefficients. The comparison between the estimation results of unscented Kalman filter and Kalman filter method shows that unscented Kalman filter can more precisely represent the distribution of the spectral peaks in time-frequency plane than Kalman filter and its time and frequency resolution is finer which ensures its better ability to track the local properties of earthquake ground motions and to identify the systems with nonlinearity or abruptness. Moreover, the estimation results of ARMA models with different orders indicate that the theoretical frequency resolving power of ARMA model which was usually ignored in former relevant studies has great effect on the estimation precision of instantaneous spectrum and it should be taken as one of the key factors in order selection of ARMA model.
