Влияние Внезапного Сужения Плоского Канала На Вынужденную Конвекцию В Турбулентном Газокапельном Течении

Abstract

Numerical modeling of the flow structure and heat transfer in a gas-droplet turbulent flow in a duct with forward-facing step is carried out. The two-dimensional RANS equations are used in the numerical solution. The Eulerian two-fluid approach is used for describing the flow dynamics and heat transfer in the gaseous and dispersed phases. The turbulence of the carrier phase is described using an elliptical Reynolds stress model with taking the presence of dispersed phase. It is shown that finely-dispersed droplets are involved in the separation recirculation motion of the gas phase. The addition of evaporating droplets to a single-phase turbulent flow in the forward-facing step leads to a significant intensification of heat transfer (more than 2 times) compared to a single-phase air flow, all other things being equal. This effect is enhanced with an increase in the initial mass fraction of the water droplets.
