Abstract

In this work, we have conducted three dimensional numerical investigations into improvement of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) mixing in viscoplastic fluids. The proposed device employs cylindrical micropillars as electrodes to generate strong Lorentz forces, enough to promote yielding of the viscoplastic fluid. Thereafter, the generated magnetohydrodynamic flow is used to intensify the process of non-reactive and reactive mixing. The cylindrical pillar electrodes, when activated, generate micro-vortices which result in rapid transport of both non-reactive and reactive species. Numerical simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the pillar based MHD systems for handling of mixing in viscoplastic fluids. The results presented in this work will serve as a benchmark for the modeling and fabrication of MHD devices dedicated for mixing of viscoplastic fluids which will find applications in areas like chemical analysis, synthesis and biomedical analysis.

圆柱柱电极阵列增强粘塑性流体中磁流体动力混合的数值研究
在这项工作中,我们对粘塑性流体中磁流体动力学(MHD)混合的改进进行了三维数值研究。该装置采用圆柱形微柱作为电极,产生强大的洛伦兹力,足以促进粘塑性流体的屈服。然后,产生的磁流体动力流被用来加强非反应性和反应性混合的过程。圆柱形柱状电极被激活时,会产生微涡流,导致非活性和活性物质的快速输送。数值模拟结果证明了柱式MHD系统处理粘塑性流体混合的有效性。在这项工作中提出的结果将作为建模和制造专用于粘塑性流体混合的MHD设备的基准,这些设备将在化学分析,合成和生物医学分析等领域得到应用。
