Abstract

The settling of particles in fluid flows is a common occurrence in various industrial processes. Investigating the interactions between particles and fluid during settling holds significant importance. This article presents a numerical study of the settling process involving two parallel particles in upward flow, employing the immersed boundary method (IBM). The simulation data were validated using experimental results for single spherical particle settlement, two parallel spherical particles settlement, and the settlement of two series of spherical particles. A comparative analysis was conducted between particle settling in upward flow and static fluid. The study explores the impact of different upward velocities and initial particle spacing on particle settling. Results indicate that the wake generated by the two parallel particles in upward flow forms a distinct boundary with the surrounding fluid. As the upward velocity increases, this boundary becomes increasingly observable. In comparison to settling in static flow, the repulsive effect between two parallel particles in upward flow is stronger, and the settling velocity of particles is smaller. Furthermore, the study reveals that the repulsion between two particles diminishes rapidly with an increase in the initial spacing, but the final settling velocity of particles remains nearly constant.

期刊介绍: The word ‘particuology’ was coined to parallel the discipline for the science and technology of particles. Particuology is an interdisciplinary journal that publishes frontier research articles and critical reviews on the discovery, formulation and engineering of particulate materials, processes and systems. It especially welcomes contributions utilising advanced theoretical, modelling and measurement methods to enable the discovery and creation of new particulate materials, and the manufacturing of functional particulate-based products, such as sensors. Papers are handled by Thematic Editors who oversee contributions from specific subject fields. These fields are classified into: Particle Synthesis and Modification; Particle Characterization and Measurement; Granular Systems and Bulk Solids Technology; Fluidization and Particle-Fluid Systems; Aerosols; and Applications of Particle Technology. Key topics concerning the creation and processing of particulates include: -Modelling and simulation of particle formation, collective behaviour of particles and systems for particle production over a broad spectrum of length scales -Mining of experimental data for particle synthesis and surface properties to facilitate the creation of new materials and processes -Particle design and preparation including controlled response and sensing functionalities in formation, delivery systems and biological systems, etc. -Experimental and computational methods for visualization and analysis of particulate system. These topics are broadly relevant to the production of materials, pharmaceuticals and food, and to the conversion of energy resources to fuels and protection of the environment.
