Abstract:
A series of experiments has been conducted for comparison with the results of a computer code called CHYMES. It is intended to calculate the coarse mixing of molten metal with water by solving the equations of the Separated Flow Model. These are derived by volume averaging and the terms that relate them to the particular case of participate flow are discussed. An experimental apparatus that is compatible with CHYMES and coarse mixing has been constructed which projects a jet of ball bearings into a thin tank of water. Experiments over a wide range of conditions were conducted at room temperatu

Abstract:
The gasification of carbonaceous fuel materials offers significant potential for the production of both energy and chemical products. Advancement of gasification technologies may be expedited through the use of computational fluid dynamics, as virtual reactor design offers a low cost method for system prototyping. To that end, a series of numerical studies were conducted to identify a computational modeling strategy for the simulation of coal gasification in fluidized bed reactors. The efforts set forth by this work first involved the development of a validatable hydrodynamic modeling strategy

Abstract:
In this thesis, a numerical method is developed for simulating non-isothermal multiphase flows, which are important in many technical applications such as crystal growth and welding. The method is based on the arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian method of Li (2013). The interface is represented explicitly by mesh lines, and is tracked by an adaptive moving unstructured mesh. The $P2-P1d$ finite element method (FEM) is used for discretisation and the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations are solved by the uzawa method. Firstly, a thorough study is presented on the method's capability in numerically

Abstract:
The development of a fuel filler pipe is based solely on experience and physical experiment. The challenge lies in designing the pipe to fulfill the customer needs. In other words designing the pipe such as the fuel flow does not splash back on the fuel dispenser causing a premature shut off. To improve this “trial-and-error” based development a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model of the refueling process is investigated. In this thesis a CFD model has been developed that can predict the fuel flow in the filler pipe. Worst case scenario of the refueling process is during the first second

The production and transportation of hydrocarbon fluids in multiphase pipelines could be severely hindered by particulate solids deposit such as produced sand particles which accompany hydrocarbon production.

Physics of immiscible two-phase flow in porous media is relevant for various industrial and environmental applications. Wettability defined as the relative affinity of fluids with the solid surface has a significant impact on the dynamics of immiscible displacement.

Abstract:
Jet engines often operate under dirty conditions where large amounts of particulate matter can be ingested, especially, sand, ash and dirt. Particulate matter in different engine components can lead to degradation in performance. The objective of this dissertation is to investigate sand transport and deposition in the internal cooling passages of turbine blades. A simplified rectangular geometry is simulated to mimic the flow field, heat transfer and particle transport in a two pass internal cooling geometry. Two major challenges are identified while trying to simulate particle deposition. Fir

Cette thèse est consacrée au mécanisme conduisant à des taux de collisions importants dans les suspensions turbulentes de particules inertielles. Le travail a été effectué en suivant numériquement des particules, par simulations directes des équations de Navier-Stokes, et également par étude de modèles simplifiés. Les applications de ce domaine sont nombreuses aussi bien dans un contexte industriel que naturel (astrophysique, géophysique). L'approximation des collisions fantômes (ACF), souvent utilisée pour déterminer les taux de collision numériquement, consiste à compter dans une simulation,

Abstract:
There have been a number of experimental investigations into the backdraft phenomena. A backdraft occurs in the event of a ventilation source being formed in a compartment, within which a fire has been burning for a sufficiently long enough time to form a deep layer of excess pyrolyzates. The source of fresh air will flow into the compartment in the form of a gravity current. It is the gravity current feature of backdrafts that this research project focuses on. Application of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to fire problems is expanding, including the development of specific programs for f

Abstract:
Fluid mixing in stirred vessels is widely encountered in a number of industries. In this work, different experimental techniques and the CFD modelling approach are used to measure the mixing of a wide range of fluids in stirred vessels. As the detailed validation is essential for CFD modelling, CFD predictions are compared in detail with different experimental measurements. The capability of CFD modelling of the 3D spatial distribution of velocity and solid concentration within opaque concentrated solid-liquid suspensions with the mean solid concentration up to 40 wt% is assessed by comparing

Abstract:
Open cavity flow is that of most interest to researchers. The flow is typical to that found to exist in the bomb bay of the F-111 and is characterised by intense acoustic levels. A review of the work of previous experimental researchers is included for comparison with the findings of the present thesis. The flow physics indicate that a series of vortices travel downstream in the cavity and are driven by vorticity generated at the upstream lip of the cavity. When strengthened the downstream moving vortex influences the mass addition and expulsion at the trailing edge initiating a pressure wave
