  • Numerical simulations are conducted to analyze conjugate heat transfer characteristics in a ribbed channel. In this simulation, the effects of Reynolds number and heat capacity of the solid channel wall on convective heat transfer are observed in the turbulent flow regime. In the case of the conducting wall against isothermal wall, the relative ratio of the thermal resistance between the solid wall and the flow field varies with Reynolds number. Thus the characteristics of the conjugate heat transfer are changed with the Reynolds number. Heat capacity ratio affects the temperature fluctuation inside solid wall. The temperature fluctuation inside the solid wall decreases with increasing the heat capacity of the solid wall so that the convective heat transfer increases. When the thermal conductivity ratio is smaller than 10, the effects of flow characteristics on heat transfer are changed.

  • In the present work, LES with new variational multiscale method is conducted on the fully developed channel flow with Reynolds number, 180 based on the friction velocity and the channel half width. Incompressible Navier-Stokes equations are integrated using finite element method with the basis function of NURBS. To solve space-time equations, Newton's method with two stage predictor multicorrector algorithm is employed. The code is parallelized using MPI. The computational domain is a rectangular box of size $2{\pi}{\times}2{\times}4/3{\pi}$ in the streamwise, wall normal and spanwise direction. Mean velocity profiles and velocity fluctuations are compared with the data of DNS. The results agree well with those of DNS and other traditional LES.

  • The present study provides some experimental observations on the structural developments of bubbly flow and the void wave damping in vertical, circular channel with a large diameter, and discusses the channel size effect on them. It is observed that the developing mode of bubbly flow structures and its transition mechanism are influenced by the channel size as well as the bubble size, and that they are well revealed in the behavior of wave damping.

As a result, the cross section ratio of the purification materials against and a flux change from the test which it sees. The interval of the purification materials in order to prevent three dimension that follows in decrease of increase and flux must decide an interval.

  • The relative magnitudes of the individual terms of the momentum equation are analyzed and compared by the analytical methods in open channel flow. The temporal variations of each term(local acceleration term, convective acceleration term, pressure force term, gravity force term, and friction force term) are analyzed for the influence factors to runoff expressed by the parameters of the momentum equation, stream slopes and roughness coefficients. The magnitudes of each term vary with the channel characteristics, especially when the roughness coefficients are dominant or for the mild stream slopes the pressure term can not be negligible. As a result of the characteristics of momentum equation in open channel flow, the acceleration terms are very small compared with the other terms. The magnitudes of local acceleration and convective acceleration offsets each other. The peak time of each term except the gravity term coincides with inflection point of the hydrograph rising limb each other.

  • The flow characteristics on a supersonic inlet with bleeding system by changing angles of attack and channel length conditions are studied by computational 3D turbulent flow analysis. A compressible upwind flux difference splitting Navier-Stokes method with $k-{\omega}$ turbulence model is used to analysis the inlet flowfield. More non-uniform flowfields are shown at the AIP when angle of attack becomes bigger and bigger. These non-uniform flowfield works the performance aggravating factors of the supersonic engine. Non-uniform flowfield by changing channel length at the various angle of attack are investigated.

  • In this study, the two-phase incompressible flow in two-dimensional channel considering the effect of surface tension is simulated using an improved level-set method. Quadratic element is used for solving the continuity and Navier-Stokes equations to avoid using an additional pressure equation, and Crank-Nicholson scheme and linear element are used for solving the advection equation of the level set function. Direct approach method using geometric information is implemented instead of the hyperbolic-type partial differential equation for the reinitializing the level set function. The benchmark test case considers various arrays of defomable droplets under different flow conditions in straight channel. The deformation and migration of the droplets are computed and the results are compared very well with the existing studies.

  • A Problem of low-velocity forced convection in a channel flow with heated wall is of practical importance and widely considered in the design of devices such as heat exchangers, and electronic equipments. Therefore, there is an urgent need for improving heat transfer performance of heated wall in the channel. In the present study, an oscillating vortex generator method is proposed to enhance the heat transfer in a channel. In this method, a rectangular bars are set in the upstream of heated region of the channel. The bars are forced to oscillate normal to the inflow, and then actively and largely generates transverse vortices behind the bars. As a result, this apparatus can enhance the heat transfer rates remarkably. Because of the interaction between the flow and oscillating bars, the variations of the flow and thermal fields become time-dependent state.

  • This paper investigates the flow field and organism concentration in a UV disinfection channel in which vertical ultraviolet lamps are arranged in a staggered configuration. Turbulence is described by low Reynolds number ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ turbulence model and standard ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ turbulence model, respectively. P-1 method has been employed to solve the radiative transfer equation. The obtained incident radiation is used to compute the inactivation term in the species equation. The CFD results are in good agreement with the existing experimental data for the UV channel. For the flow field, the low-Reynolds number ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ model is superior to the standard ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ model. The approach velocity has a significant effect on the disinfection efficiency. The organism concentration at the outlet decreases fast to a low inlet velocity.
