(2020, “Investigation on the Horn-Like Vortices in Stator Corner Separation Flow in an Axial Flow Pump,” ASME J. Fluids Eng., 142(7), p. 071208), and the associated external features were preliminarily presented. However, internal vortical characteristics of horn-like vortices, including the distributions of swirling strength, the deformation mechanism of vortex tube and the correlation with pressure fluctuation surge, are not revealed. In this paper, the newly developed vorticity decomposition approach is introduced, and thus more novel quantitative results are provided for the physics of horn-like vortex evolution in an axial flow pump. First, the distributions of absolute swirling strength, relative swirling strength and Liutex spectrum are presented to outline the vortical features of the horn-like vortex fields. Second, the deformation mechanism of the horn-like vortex tube is revealed. It is found that the horn-like vortex spatial evolution can be described by the deformation terms (Liutex stretching term, Liutex dilatation term, and curl term of the pseudo-Lamb vector) controlling the Liutex transport process. These terms constantly act on the horn-like vortex tube in an almost independent way, causing its continuous deformations in the transit process. Third, the quantitative correlation between horn-like vortex transit and pressure fluctuation surge is given. It is proved that periodic vortex transit can cause severe pressure fluctuation that is much larger than that induced by rotor–stator interaction. From multiple perspectives, a clearer evolution process of the horn-like vortex is outlined, which is conducive to controlling the corner separation flows and improving the stability of large-capacity and low-head pumping stations.","PeriodicalId":54833,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Fluids Engineering-Transactions of the Asme","volume":"265 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74937631","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite the advances achieved in normal-temperature cavitation prediction, cryogenic cavitation prediction has remained a challenging task in which thermal effects play a significant role. This study aims to enhance the prediction of cryogenic cavitation, and both the cavitation and turbulence models are improved simultaneously. The original cavitation model embedded in the CFX flow solver is modified by incorporating additional source terms (such as mass and heat transfer rates) for dual evaporation and condensation processes. The renormalization group k–ε turbulence model is modified on the basis of the filter-based turbulence model and density correction method to permit a smooth prediction of turbulence eddy viscosity, which mitigates the overestimation of the turbulence length scale in the cryogenic cavity (which is intrinsic to the original renormalization group k–ε turbulence model). The modified cavitation and turbulence models are implemented through CFX Expression Language (CEL) within the CFX frame. To verify the modified models and the enhancement of cryogenic cavitation prediction, Hord's liquefied nitrogen (LN2) and liquefied hydrogen (LH2) experiments over a hydrofoil and ogive are used, and cavitating flow simulation is conducted for each of the test cases. When using the modified models, the predicted temperature and pressure curves agree well with the measured values, and the predicted cavity lengths are much closer to the measured lengths. It is proven that the cryogenic cavitating flow can be well depicted by the modified models.","PeriodicalId":54833,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Fluids Engineering-Transactions of the Asme","volume":"49 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86579888","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The relationship between flow topological structure and vortex in the impeller and static pressure at the blade were analyzed. Analysis results show that the backflow and open flow separation are observed significantly in the leading region and near the shroud of the trailing region of suction side. The passage vortex always appears near the spiral node.

In different industrial applications, these devices are also used in series (multistage perforated plates) to manage high pressure drop or reduce cavitation occurrence in industrial pipes and enhance efficiency of gas turbines in power plants. Based on analysis of literature and modeling considerations, a functional relationship that describes the dimensionless pressure loss for multistage perforated plates is proposed in this paper. Moreover, numerical investigation of the influence of the spacing between perforated plates for two identical-stage plates with aligned and misaligned holes is carried out by simulating a wide range of Reynolds number in turbulent flow regime. The obtained results include the trend of the pressure loss coefficient as the spacing between the two perforated plates varies for both cases of aligned and misaligned holes. The numerical achievements also show that for small spacing, the pressure loss coefficient is very different from that caused by two independent plates and is strongly influenced by the alignment between the holes of the two plates. By increasing the spacing, the behavior of the losses caused by the two-stage plates tends to that of two independent plates. A critical spacing between the plates has also been defined, beyond which the pressure losses are independent from the alignment of the holes.","PeriodicalId":54833,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Fluids Engineering-Transactions of the Asme","volume":"29 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80975461","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Velocity fields in the wake region were obtained by applying the time-resolved stereoscopic particle image velocimetry (TR-SPIV) technique. From the acquired TR-SPIV velocity vector fields, the statistical values of mean and fluctuating velocities were computed. Spectral analysis, two-point velocity–velocity cross-correlation, proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) and vortex identification analyses were also performed. The velocity fields show a recirculation region that decreases in length with an increase of Reynolds numbers. The power spectra from the spectral analysis had peaks corresponding to a Strouhal number of St = 0.2, which is a value commonly found in the literature studies of flow over a sphere. The two-point cross-correlation analysis revealed elliptical structures in the wake, with estimated integral length scales ranging between 12% and 63% of the sphere diameter. The POD analysis revealed the statistically dominant flow structures that captured the most flow kinetic energy. It is seen that the flow kinetic energy captured in the smaller scale flow structures increased as Reynolds number increased. The POD modes contained smaller structure as the Reynolds number increased and as mode order increased. In addition, spectral analysis performed on the POD temporal coefficients revealed peaks corresponding to St = 0.2, similar to the spectral analysis on the fluctuating velocity. The ability of POD to produce low-order reconstructions of the flow was also utilized to facilitate vortex identification analysis, which identified average vortex sizes of 0.41D for Re1, 0.33D for Re2, and 0.32D for Re3.","PeriodicalId":54833,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Fluids Engineering-Transactions of the Asme","volume":"28 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90018063","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A three-dimensional (3D) numerical model is built to simulate the flow in the pump channel. The pump heads at different flow rates are accurately predicted by comparing with experiment. The simulation results show the fluid velocity is circumferentially nonuniform in the pump channel even at the nominal flow rate. The flow in the middle sector continuously decelerates to nearly zero with the reducing flow rate. Reversed flow occurs in the azimuthal plane, followed by vortex flow. The reason for the heterogeneous velocity field is attributed to the mismatch between nonuniform Lorentz force and relatively even pressure gradient. It is seen that the flow in the region of small Lorentz force has to sacrifice its velocity to match with the pressure gradient. An analytic expression of the axial Lorentz force is then developed and it is clearly demonstrated the Lorentz force could be influenced by the profiles of velocity and radial magnetic flux density. The coupling between velocity and magnetic field is studied by analyzing the magnitudes of different terms in the dimensionless magnetic induction equation. It is found the dissipation term is determined by not only the magnetic Reynolds number but also the square of wave number of the disturbance in each direction. The smaller disturbing wave number weakens the dissipating effect, resulting in the larger nonuniform magnetic field and axial Lorentz force.","PeriodicalId":54833,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Fluids Engineering-Transactions of the Asme","volume":"45 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74461997","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While the velocity magnitudes at choke or mild surge increased with rotational speed, the velocity profiles remained qualitatively similar. The variation in deep surge flow field with shaft speed, however, was more substantial. At 80 krpm, the overall flow field was comparable at different time instances (at different points on the surge cycle): the core flow near the duct center was always directed into the impeller, whereas reversed flow occupied an annular region near the periphery in nearly all time instances. However, at 140 krpm, while the negative flow rate (cross-sectional average flow is directed out of the inducer back into the inlet duct) portion of the surge cycle was still similar to the overall surge flow field at 80 krpm, over a substantial part of the positive flow rate (cross-sectional average flow is directed into the impeller) portion of the surge cycle, there was no sign of reversed flow within the visualization domain. As the rotational speed was increased, the surge loop (obtained by combining the particle image velocimetry (PIV) and pressure transducer data) extended over a wider portion of the compressor map with higher maximum (positive) and minimum (negative) flow rates, along with higher amplitude pressure fluctuations. The mean amplitude of mass flow rate and pressure ratio fluctuations at deep surge increased in nearly a quadratic fashion with rotational speed.","PeriodicalId":54833,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Fluids Engineering-Transactions of the Asme","volume":"124 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77452731","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The purpose is to explore the effect of this transformation on the wake characteristics of a square body with l/d = 1 to a triangular body with l/d = 0; where l is the length of lateral and front surface, and d is the body height. The effect on the flow behavior caused by the leading-edge transformation from the prospect of wake width, recirculation length and stagnation pressure difference is discussed. It is seen that as the l/d ratio decreases, the vortex strength increases which is attributed to the higher stagnation pressure difference value resulting in more intense rolling of the shedding vortex and a smaller wake width. For lower l/d, the fluid traverses a longer distance along the lateral surfaces resulting in greater loss of momentum and hence the lower vortex formation length. The mean drag coefficient is found to be minimum for l/d = 0.75 with stagnation pressure difference and recirculation length being the more dominating factor on this variation. The flow in all the cases separates at the rear surface and the general trend of decrease in drag coefficient with decrease in wake width is not followed.
