    Evaluation of the Air Leakage Flowrate in Sintering Processes

    Jin Cai1, Xiangwei Kong1,*, Mingzhu Yu1,2

    FDMP-Fluid Dynamics & Materials Processing, Vol.19, No.11, pp. 2791-2812, 2023, DOI:10.32604/fdmp.2023.029692

    Abstract Iron ore sintering is a pre-treatment technology by which ore fines are converted into porous and permeable sinters, which are the used in blast furnaces. This process can be adversely affected by air leakage phenomena of various types. As experimental measurements are relatively difficult and often scarcely reliable, here a theoretical model based on typical fluid-dynamic concepts and relationships is elaborated. Through the analysis of two extreme cases, namely, those in which leakage is due to a small hole or a full rupture, a generalized hole-bed model is introduced, which for the first time also includes a complete bed permeability… More > Graphic Abstract

    Experimental Evaluation of Compressive Strength and Gas Permeability of Glass-Powder-Containing Mortar

    Yue Liang, Wenxuan Dai, Wei Chen*

    FDMP-Fluid Dynamics & Materials Processing, Vol.19, No.10, pp. 2639-2659, 2023, DOI:10.32604/fdmp.2023.027622

    Abstract Glass powder of various particle sizes (2, 5, 10 and 15 μm) has been assessed as a possible cement substitute for mortars. Different replacement rates of cement (5%, 10%, 15%, and 20%) have been considered for all particle sizes. The accessible porosity, compressive strength, gas permeability and microstructure have been investigated accordingly. The results have shown that adding glass powder up to 20% has a significantly negative effect on the porosity and compressive strength of mortar. The compressive strength initially rises with a 5% replacement and then decreases. Similarly, the gas permeability of the mortar displays a non-monotonic behavior; first, it… More >

    HEAT TRANSFER ANALYSIS OF MHD CASSON FLUID FLOW BETWEEN TWO POROUS PLATES WITH DIFFERENT PERMEABILITY

    V.S. Sampath Kumar, N.P. Pai , B. Devaki

    Frontiers in Heat and Mass Transfer, Vol.20, pp. 1-13, 2023, DOI:10.5098/hmt.20.30

    Abstract In the present study, we consider Casson fluid flow between two porous plates with permeability criteria in the presence of heat transfer and magnetic effect. A proper set of similarity transformations simplify the Navier-Stokes equations to non-linear ODEs with boundary conditions. The homotopy perturbation method is an efficient and stable method which is used to get solutions. Further, the results obtained are compared with the solution computed through an effective and efficient finite difference approach. The purpose of this analysis is to study the four different cases arise viz: suction, injection, mixed suction and mixed injection in this problem, along… More >

    A Darcy-Law Based Model for Heat and Moisture Transfer in a Hill Cave

    Fei Liu1, Dongliang Zhang2,*, Qifu Zhu1, Qingyong Su1

    FDMP-Fluid Dynamics & Materials Processing, Vol.19, No.9, pp. 2345-2359, 2023, DOI:10.32604/fdmp.2023.027084

    Abstract A hill can be regarded as an environmental carrier of heat. Water, rocks and the internal moisture naturally present in such environment constitute a natural heat accumulator. In the present study, the heat and moisture transfer characteristics in a representative hill cave have been simulated via a method relying on the Darcy’s law. The simulations have been conducted for both steady and unsteady conditions to discern the influence of permeability and geometric parameters on the thermal and moisture transfer processes. The reliability of the simulation has been verified through comparison of the numerical results with the annual observation data. As… More > Graphic Abstract

    INTEGRATED MICRO X-RAY TOMOGRAPHY AND PORE-SCALE SIMULATIONS FOR ACCURATE PERMEABILITY PREDICTIONS OF POROUS MEDIA

    Fangzhou Wanga,* , Gennifer A. Rileyb, Munonyedi Egboc, Melanie M. Derbyb, Gisuk Hwangc, Xianglin Lia,†

    Frontiers in Heat and Mass Transfer, Vol.15, pp. 1-8, 2020, DOI:10.5098/hmt.15.1

    Abstract This study conducts pore-scale simulations and experiments to estimate the permeability of two different types of porous materials: metal foams and sintered copper particles with porosities of approximately 0.9 and 0.4, respectively. The integration of micro X-ray computed tomography with pore-scale computational fluid dynamics simulations develops a unique tool to capture the pore-scale geometry of porous media and accurately predict non-isotropic permeability of porous media. The pore-scale simulation not only results in improved prediction accuracy but also has the capability to capture non-isotropic properties of heterogeneous materials, which is a huge challenge for empirical correlations, volume averaged simulations, and simulations… More >

    WATER PERMEABILITY THROUGH THE WALL OF BLOOD CAPILLARY

    Mian Wang1, Yongbin Zhang2,*

    Frontiers in Heat and Mass Transfer, Vol.18, pp. 1-5, 2022, DOI:10.5098/hmt.18.7

    Abstract Blood capillaries are the ends of blood vessel tissues in human bodies, which are importantly functioned as exchanging the nutrients between bloods and interstitial fluids. Most blood capillaries such as in skins, skeletal muscles, cardiac muscles and lungs etc. have the walls with massively distributed cylindrical nanopores with diameters around from 50nm to 60nm. These pores are the only channels for transporting water, oxygen, carbon dioxide and ions, while preventing all the substances with the diameters greater than 60nm or a little more from passing through. The present paper presents the analytical results for the water permeability through these pores… More >

    Liefei Pei1,2, Xiangyun Zhang1, Zizhou Yuan1,*

    Journal of Renewable Materials, Vol.11, No.6, pp. 2969-2983, 2023, DOI:10.32604/jrm.2023.025760

    Abstract Iron-based amorphous crystalline powder Fe78Si9B13AP is used as a permeability reaction barrier (PRB) combined with an electrokinetic method (EK-PRB) to study the removal rate of Cu in contaminated soil. After treating Cucontaminated soil for 5 days under different voltage gradients and soil water content, the soil pH is between 3.1 and 7.2. The increase of voltage gradient and soil water content can effectively promote the movement of Cu2+ to the cathode. The voltage gradient is 3 V/cm, and the water content of 40% is considered to be an optional experimental condition. Therefore, under this condition, the effects of Fe78Si9B13AP and… More >

    Research on the Corrosion of J55 Steel Due to Oxygen-Reducing Air Flooding in Low-Permeability Reservoirs

    Liang Wang1, Baofeng Hou1, Yanming Fang3, Jintao Zhang2, Fajian Nie1,2,*

    FDMP-Fluid Dynamics & Materials Processing, Vol.19, No.7, pp. 1925-1937, 2023, DOI:10.32604/fdmp.2023.025966

    Abstract Oxygen-reducing air flooding is a low-permeability reservoir recovery technology with safety and low-cost advantages. However, in the process of air injection and drive, carbon in the air is oxidized through the crude oil reservoir to generate CO2, and this can cause serious corrosion in the recovery well. In this study, experiments on the corrosion of J55 tubular steel in a fluid environment with coexisting O2 and CO2 in an autoclave are presented. In particular, a weight loss method and a 3D morphometer were used to determine the average and the local corrosion rate. The corrosion surface morphology and composition were… More >

    Journal of Renewable Materials, Vol.11, No.5, pp. 2265-2278, 2023, DOI:10.32604/jrm.2023.025483

    Abstract Poplar wood, which was used as the absorption material for the solar-driven interfacial evaporation, was treated for 3 days, 6 days and 9 days with the pectinase, and then was simulated for photothermal evaporation test at one standard solar radiation intensity (1 kW⋅m−2). The effects of pectinase treatment on cell passage and water migration capacity of poplars were analyzed by the mercury intrusion porosimetry, the scanning electron microscope and fractal theory. It was found that the pit membrane and the ray parenchyma cells of poplar wood were degraded and destroyed after pectinase treatment. Compared with the untreated poplar wood, the evaporation… More >
