Abstract:

This thesis studies the linear and nonlinear dynamics of pipes conveying fluid. It consists of four peer-reviewed journal papers, three published and one submitted for publication. The aim is to investigate aspects of the dynamical behaviour of extensible and inextensible pipes conveying fluid, both theoretically and experimentally.In particular, (i) the three-dimensional nonlinear dynamics of a pipe conveying fluid, constrained by an array of four springs attached at a point along its length is examined from the theoretical and experimental perspectives; (ii) the three-dimensional dynamical b

Abstract:

The following work details an investigation into improving efficiency in pulverised-fuel- fired power stations. The particular area of focus is the splitter box; this is located in the pneumatic conveying pipeline within the power station. The conveying pipelines take the pulverised fuel from the mill to the burner face, at some point the air/fuel mixture has to be split to feed the individual burners. It is at these points that the splitter boxes occur, dividing the pipe into multiple legs. It is common for some of these splits to produce poor fuel balance between legs, leading to excess air

Abstract:

This thesis examines the planar dynamics of flexible pipes conveying fluid. The nonlinear equations of motion are derived for cantilevered pipes and for simply-supported pipes, using Hamilton's principle and the force balance method. The resulting equations are compared with previous derivations.<br>The linearized system is first studied, to get the critical parameters corresponding to the stability boundaries, i.e. the local bifurcations. Then, the nonlinear equations are investigated, both analytically and numerically. Centre manifold, normal form and bifurcation theories are used to obtain

Abstract:

This project arose out of a need to improve the accuracy with which the pressure drop along pneumatic conveying pipelines in process plant could be predicted. The methods previously available for making this prediction are examined and critically assessed. The need for a different method is shown, and a new approach is developed and tested. The new approach involves testing of the product to be conveyed, in a test pipeline at the smaller end of the industrial scale, with measurements being made of the pressure drop caused by bends and of the pressure gradients in straight lengths; the data is

Abstract:

The object of this work was to investigate the interaction between rotary valves and pneumatic conveying pipelines and the effect which this can have on overall system performance. A review of previous work and current industrial practice revealed that very little work has been published on this subject, although it was evident that some manufacturers of pneumatic conveying systems do have preferred entrainment configurations. Consequently, a preliminary experimental investigation was undertaken with a transparent model of a rotary valve and drop-out box in order to observe the air and solid f

Full text

Abstract:

This study was initiated by the need to improve current techniques used in the design of pneumatic conveying systems. At present, the commonly used method to predict the pressure drop in a vertical pipeline in a pneumatic conveying system is to obtain the pressure gradient in a horizontal for the identical conveying conditions and double the pressure gradient in the horizontal pipeline to give the pressure gradient in the vertical pipeline. In addition, scaling for pipeline bore in vertical pipelines is simply undertaken by considering the change in cross-sectional area. This is another area w

Abstract:

This thesis undertakes the investigation of the dynamics of two different cases of a slender, flexible pipe conveying fluid: (i) an aspirating cantilevered pipe, ingesting fluid at its free end and transporting it towards the clamped end, and (ii) a pipe conveying a fluid whose density varies axially along the length of the pipe. The general context of the research is first provided by broadly introducing the field of Fluid-Structure Interactions (FSI) and reviewing the basic theory regarding pipes conveying fluid. Subsequently, a numerical approach coupling Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)

Abstract:

Interest in the use of dense phase conveying has grown considerably in recent years. However, not all products are capable of being conveyed in dense phase and it is often difficult to predict which products have dense phase capability without carrying out pilot conveying trials. The main objective of this work was to investigate the effect of bulk particular properties on pneumatic conveying performance. To achieve this, an extensive programme of conveying trials was carried out and each product tested was subjected to a series of bench scale tests to evaluate the bulk properties of the mater

Abstract:

Fluid passing through a cylindrical shell causes both lateral displacements and deformation of the cross-section. Studies have shown that this applies to both the cantilevered and clamped-clamped shells. The effect of boundary conditions was examined and it was concluded that a system with identical end conditions (clamped or pinned) is conservative; thus, at sufficiently high flow, it loses stability by divergence, followed by coupled-mode flutter at a slightly higher flow velocity.<br>This thesis focuses on the systems of clamped-pinned and pinned-clamped shells.

Abstract:

Grafting of antioxidants and other modifiers onto polymers by reactive extrusion, has been performed successfully by the Polymer Processing and Performance Group at Aston University. Traditionally the optimum conditions for the grafting process have been established within a Brabender internal mixer. Transfer of this batch process to a continuous processor, such as an extruder, has, typically, been empirical. To have more confidence in the success of direct transfer of the process requires knowledge of, and comparison between, residence times, mixing intensities, shear rates and flow regimes i

Abstract:

With the ongoing technology battles and price wars in today's competitive economy, every company is looking for an advantage over its peers. A particular choice of facility layout can have a significant impact on the ability of a company to maintain lower operational expenses under uncertain economic conditions. It is known that systems with less congestion have lower operational costs. Traditionally, manufacturing facility layout problem methods aim at minimizing the total distance traveled, the material handling cost, or the time in the system (based on distance traveled at a specific speed)

In today’s turbulent business environment, an increasing number of businesses and organizations are finding themselves confronted with a crushing pressure to constantly reinvent themselves. Given such a business environment, coupled with high stakes and fierce competitiveness, it is quite unsurprising that most change efforts are reported to fail. Change communication, or rather the lack thereof, has been pointed out as one of the most important reasons. In recent years, many scholars have started to differentiate between participatory and programmatic change communication, elicited by a recon

abstract: This investigation is focused on the consideration of structural uncertainties in nearly-straight pipes conveying fluid and on the effects of these uncertainties on the dynamic response and stability of those pipes. Of interest more specifically are the structural uncertainties which affect directly the fluid flow and its feedback on the structural response, e.g., uncertainties on/variations of the inner cross-section and curvature of the pipe. Owing to the complexity of introducing such uncertainties directly in finite element models, it is desired to proceed directly at the level o
