Title:
|
A MODIFIED ENTRAINMENT COEFFICIENT RELATION FOR THE DESCRIPTION OF THE COANDA EFFECT ON BUBBLE PLUMES
|
|
Summary :
|
THIS PAPER DESCRIBES THE GAS FRACTION DISTRIBUTION IN THE TWO-PHASE FLOW OF A GAS-LIQUID BUBBLE PLUME SET TO DEVELOP ADJACENT TO ANOTHER BUBBLE PLUME. WHEN THIS HAPPENS, THE PLUME EXHIBITS A TYPE OF COANDA EFFECT, BENDING TOWARDS THE OTHER PLUME. THE LOCAL GAS FRACTION MEASUREMENTS ARE CARRIED OUT USING THE ELECTRO-RESISTIVITY PROBE TECHNIQUE IN AN AIR-WATER SYSTEM. THE DEFLECTION ANGLE OF THE PLUMES IS SHOWN TO PRESENT A LOGARITHMIC DEPENDENCE ON THE MODIFIED WEBER AND FROUDE NUMBERS OF THE FLOW. IN ADDITION, A SIMPLE THEORY BASED ON INTEGRAL METHODS IS ADVANCED FOR THE PREDICTION OF THE PLUME DEFLECTION; THE THEORY CONSIDERS A VARIABLE ENTRAINMENT COEFFICIENT.
KEY WORDS - BUBBLE PLUME, COANDA EFFECT, ENTRAINMENT COEFFICIENT. |
