This commonly used circulating fluid exhibits a notable negative correlation with temperature in terms of viscosity. Numerical simulations investigate the transient dynamics of a high-speed coolant pump operating at 6000 rpm, driving coolant flow at various temperatures. A high-speed coolant pump test rig is established, and the performance is evaluated under different temperature conditions. The numerical simulations at different temperatures align well with the experimental outcomes. Decreasing temperatures, from 100 to −20 °C, lead to reduced pump head and efficiency due to increased viscosity. Specifically, at a flow rate of 30 L/min, head decreases by 40.03% and efficiency by 44.19%. With escalating viscosity, the best efficiency point shifts toward lower flow rates. Notable impacts on both disk efficiency and hydraulic efficiency are observed due to viscosity fluctuations. It exerts minimal influence on volumetric efficiency at elevated flow rates but has a substantial impact on volumetric efficiency at lower flow rates. Increased fluid viscosity causes uneven pressure distribution within the pump, altering velocity profiles within the impeller. High-viscosity fluids tend to form large-scale vortex structures around the blades, reducing the thrust exerted by the blades on the fluid. Higher viscosity results in larger vortex structures around the blades, reducing thrust and increasing fluid frictional resistance. The study findings provide valuable insights for the advancement of high-efficiency, energy-saving, high-speed coolant pumps tailored for electric vehicles.","PeriodicalId":509470,"journal":{"name":"Physics of Fluids","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141053666","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Diesel engine emissions discharged from the roof of trains pose a challenge as some of the smoke infiltrates the cabin through the intake of roof-mounted air-conditioning units (ACUs). This intrusion diminishes the indoor air quality, posing health risks to passengers and potentially jeopardizing their safety. This study employs the shear stress transport k-omega turbulence model to formulate a multiphase flow model for simulating smoke diffusion in diesel trains. Additionally, we conducted an optimization design to minimize smoke entry into the ACUs. This study defined six cases based on variations in the shape and height of the cover and the spacing of the smoke vents. The results show that the effect of the diffusion characteristics decreased with the cover height. With the progression of airflow diffusion, the effect of the smoke vent structure on the concentration diminished farther from the vents. The minimum smoke mass flow rate into the intake occurred with the vent spacing of 2.14 m and without a cover, resulting in a 57.0% decrease compared with the maximum. Thus, a smoke vent spacing of 2.14 m without a cover was deemed to be the optimal configuration. The research results provide certain engineering guidance significance for the design and operation of train-smoke vent structures.","PeriodicalId":509470,"journal":{"name":"Physics of Fluids","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141054226","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the solver-intrusive field inversion has a high entry bar, and existing FIML studies focused on improving only steady-state or time-averaged periodic flow predictions. To break this limit, this paper develops an open-source FIML framework for time-accurate unsteady flow, where both spatial and temporal variations of flow are of interest. We augment a Reynolds-Averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) turbulence model's production term with a scalar field. We then integrate a neural network (NN) model into the flow solver to compute the above augmentation scalar field based on local flow features at each time step. Finally, we optimize the weights and biases of the built-in NN model to minimize the regulated spatial-temporal prediction error between the augmented flow solver and reference data. We consider the spatial-temporal evolution of unsteady flow over a 45° ramp and use only the surface pressure as the training data. The unsteady-FIML-trained model accurately predicts the spatial-temporal variations of unsteady flow fields. In addition, the trained model exhibits reasonably good prediction accuracy for various ramp angles, Reynolds numbers, and flow variables (e.g., velocity fields) that are not used in training, highlighting its generalizability. The FIML capability has been integrated into our open-source framework DAFoam. It has the potential to train more accurate RANS turbulence models for other unsteady flow phenomena, such as wind gust response, bubbly flow, and particle dispersion in the atmosphere.","PeriodicalId":509470,"journal":{"name":"Physics of Fluids","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141032359","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the effect of the power-law model constants describing the rheological behavior of the pseudoplastic fluid has never been investigated. Thus, a numerical model was developed to simulate the hydrodynamics of gas dispersion in non-Newtonian fluids with a coaxial mixer. Then, a set of experiments was conducted to assess the mass transfer efficacy of a coaxial mixer to benchmark the numerical model. In this regard, various methods, including dynamic gassing-in and electrical resistance tomography methods, were used to quantify the mass transfer and gas hold-up profiles. The influence of fluid rheological properties, gas flow number, and rotating mode on the power consumption, mass transfer coefficient, bubble size profile, and hydrodynamics were examined both experimentally and numerically. The response surface model (RSM) was employed to explore the individual effects of power-law model constants on mass transfer. The RSM model utilized five levels for the consistency index (k), five levels for the flow index (n), and three levels for the gas flow number. The statistical model proposed that the absolute model constants for the flow and consistency indices were 0.0012 and 0.0010, respectively, for the co-rotating mixer. Conversely, for the counter-rotating mixer, these constants were 0.0010 and 0.0013, respectively. Therefore, this study revealed that the co-rotating coaxial mixer was well-suited for dispersing gas within a fluid with high consistency. In contrast, the counter-rotating mixer proved effective in enhancing gas dispersion within a fluid with a lower flow index.","PeriodicalId":509470,"journal":{"name":"Physics of Fluids","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141037593","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our model moves from the recent paper by Quick et al. [“New approaches to inferences for steep-sided domes on Venus,” J. Volcanol. Geotherm. Res. 319, 93–105 (2016)] but generalizes it under several respects. Indeed, we consider a temperature field, playing a fundamental role in the flow evolution, whose dynamics is governed by the heat equation. In particular, we suggest that the main mechanism that drives cooling is radiation at the dome surface. We obtain a generalized form of the equation describing the dome shape, where the dependence of viscosity on temperature is taken into account. Still following Quick et al. [“New approaches to inferences for steep-sided domes on Venus,” J. Volcanol. Geothermal Res. 319, 93–105 (2016)], we distinguish an isothermal relaxing phase preceded by a non-isothermal (cooling) effusive phase, but the fluid mechanical model, developed in an axisymmetric thin-layer approximation, takes into account both shear thinning and thermal effects. In both cases (relaxing and effusive phase), we show the existence of self-similar solutions. In particular, this allows to obtain a likely scenario of the volumetric flow rate which originated this kind of domes. Indeed, the model predicts a time varying discharge, which is maximum at the beginning of the formation process and decreases until vanishing when the effusive phase is over. The model, in addition to fitting well the dome shape, suggests a possible forming scenario, which may help the largely debated questions about the emplacement and lava composition of these domes.","PeriodicalId":509470,"journal":{"name":"Physics of Fluids","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141027108","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Through a series of manipulations and simplifications of the coupled equations, a fourth-order ordinary differential equation is derived to showcase the overall response of the system, highlighting the contribution of each odd mode. Key concepts explored include system stability, mode-specific natural periods, establishment of initial boundary conditions, and formulation of the complete system response. The analytical method applied to study Tuned Liquid Dampers, a type of elevated sloshing tank, reveals that in higher modes, the lower frequency aligns with the structural natural frequency, while the higher frequency is approximately n times the structural natural frequency (where n is the odd mode number). This approach also elucidates why the system's response does not exhibit a higher-frequency component in higher modes. The study further investigates concepts such as employing an initial perturbation to excite higher frequencies and the potential for approximating the system through the first mode. Additionally, a numerical model was developed using variable separation and modal decomposition methods to complement and validate the analytical approach. Finally, further verification of the model was performed using the Preismann scheme applied to the relevant equations and the central upwind applied to nonlinear equations.","PeriodicalId":509470,"journal":{"name":"Physics of Fluids","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141036194","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite the low hydrostatic pressure, violent eruptions can achieve a height of tens of meters above the ground. This current study experimentally investigates large-scale violent geysers using a large air pocket inserted from a pressurized air tank. The total length of the pipe system is approximately 88 m with a 0.1572 m diameter pipe. This large-scale experiment facilitates the investigation of spontaneous geyser eruptions. This study identifies the role of air–water volume ratio and coefficient of pressure (ratio of absolute initial static pressure to initial dynamic pressure) on the geyser intensity using eruption images and pressure plots. A total of 116 cases are tested, in which the volume ratio is parametrically increased from 0 to 1.1 under various operating conditions. A geyser score is defined to quantify the geyser eruption nature based on visual observations. The key findings are as follows: first, a sharp transition in geyser intensity is observed at the critical volume ratio of 0.5, and pre-transition and post-transition intensity exhibit a linear relationship with the volume ratio; and second, the critical volume ratio linearly varies with the coefficient of pressure.","PeriodicalId":509470,"journal":{"name":"Physics of Fluids","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141047935","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In boiling, the orientation of heated surface also plays a crucial role. Downward facing boiling is complex than upward facing boiling, as the detachment of the bubble inhibited due to the heater surface orientation. Consequently, the bubble residence time and interaction with other bubbles are different in such boiling conditions. Our experiments on a large downward facing flat surface (100 × 400 mm2) revealed unexplored boiling phenomena. The boiling process is dominated by a complex engulfing phenomenon, which is rarely reported in the past. The engulfing phenomena have been captured using high-speed photography, wherein, at low heat fluxes, it is observed that larger bubbles engulf small bubbles by opening their mouth and swallowing the small bubbles. However, at higher heat fluxes, this phenomenon disappears. A larger vapor blanket is formed due to engulfing of bubbles, which may lead to departure from nucleate boiling. This engulfing behavior depends on the heat flux and subcooling. With the increase in heat flux, it is found that the rate of vapor engulfing increases. We have attempted to explain the science behind such engulfing phenomenon based on the capillary pressure difference. These results are consistent at various subcooling. This research provides new insights into nucleate boiling and may help in developing advanced mathematical models for accurate heat transfer prediction on downward facing nucleate boiling.","PeriodicalId":509470,"journal":{"name":"Physics of Fluids","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141027093","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
