Abstract
This study presents an analytical attempt to explore the two-dimensional concentration distribution in an oscillatory Couette flow. Mei's homogenization technique is used to find the concentration distribution up to third-order approximation. Analytical expressions of mean and transverse concentration distributions up to third order are derived in this study, which may be regarded as the novelty of this work. Most of the necessary transverse distribution functions are also found analytically. It is well known that the Taylor dispersion model predicts the longitudinal distribution of mean concentration only and the previous research works have mainly focused on this. Nevertheless, the transverse concentration distribution is important from environmental and industrial application points of view. Concentration variation rate over the cross-section is found to be higher for thicker Stokes boundary layers. It is also found that the dispersion of solute in the flowing fluid increases with the increase in Stokes boundary layer thickness. The present study propounds that a time scale 10

Abstract
This paper numerically quantifies the dispersion of a solute, and in particular, the Taylor dispersion, in the pressure-driven flow of a non-colloidal suspension at moderately high volume fractions (0.2 to 0.5) through conduits of different cross-sectional shapes. An obvious intuition is that the Taylor dispersivity should increase owing to a decrease in the molecular diffusivity of the solute in the presence of particles impermeable to the solute; however, this is true only at low volume fractions. At higher volume fractions, three other physical effects become important, all of which lead to a reduction in Taylor dispersivity relative to a Newtonian fluid. The first is the blunting of the velocity profile resulting from particle migration into the low shear-stress regions, an effect that has been alluded to in the past by Roht et al. [J. Contam. Hydrol., 2013, 14, 10] and is important only at low Péclet numbers (Pe). At higher Pe, the two stronger effects are shear-induced solute self-diffusion, which arises due to shear-induced particle-particle interactions, and secondary convection, which is observed in non-axisymmetric cross-sections as a result of the second normal stress differences exhibited by concentrated suspensions. For a given volume fraction and cross-sectional geometry, a regime map, developed using a scaling analysis, delineates five regimes of dispersion involving one or a combination of the mass transfer mechanisms mentioned above. Our analysis also suggests that the cross-sectional shape can be exploited to enhance or suppress solute dispersion by modifying the secondary current strength and profile.

Abstract
Large eddy simulations (LES) of dispersed gas-liquid flows for the prediction of flow patterns and its applications have been reviewed. The published literature in the last ten years has been analysed on a coherent basis, and the present status has been brought out for the LES Euler-Euler and Euler-Lagrange approaches. Finally, recommendations for the use of LES in dispersed gas liquid flows have been made.

CFD Simulation of Annular Centrifugal Extractors. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF CHEMICAL ENGINEERING 2012. [DOI: 10.1155/2012/759397] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Annular centrifugal extractors (ACE), also called annular centrifugal contactors offer several advantages over the other conventional process equipment such as low hold-up, high process throughput, low residence time, low solvent inventory and high turn down ratio. The equipment provides a very high value of mass transfer coefficient and interfacial area in the annular zone because of the high level of power consumption per unit volume and separation inside the rotor due to the high g of centrifugal field. For the development of rational and reliable design procedures, it is important to understand the flow patterns in the mixer and settler zones. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) has played a major role in the constant evolution and improvements of this device. During the past thirty years, a large number of investigators have undertaken CFD simulations. All these publications have been carefully and critically analyzed and a coherent picture of the present status has been presented in this review paper. Initially, review of the single phase studies in the annular region has been presented, followed by the separator region. In continuation, the two-phase CFD simulations involving liquid-liquid and gas-liquid flow in the annular as well as separator regions have been reviewed. Suggestions have been made for the future work for bridging the existing knowledge gaps. In particular, emphasis has been given to the application of CFD simulations for the design of this equipment.

Abstract
Accurate detection and identification of natural or intentional contamination events in a drinking water pipe is critical to drinking water supply security and health risk management. To use conventional water quality sensors for the purpose, we have explored a real-time event adaptive detection, identification and warning (READiw) methodology and examined it using pilot-scale pipe flow experiments of 11 chemical and biological contaminants each at three concentration levels. The tested contaminants include pesticide and herbicides (aldicarb, glyphosate and dicamba), alkaloids (nicotine and colchicine), E. coli in terrific broth, biological growth media (nutrient broth, terrific broth, tryptic soy broth), and inorganic chemical compounds (mercuric chloride and potassium ferricyanide). First, through adaptive transformation of the sensor outputs, contaminant signals were enhanced and background noise was reduced in time-series plots leading to detection and identification of all simulated contamination events. The improved sensor detection threshold was 0.1% of the background for pH and oxidation-reduction potential (ORP), 0.9% for free chlorine, 1.6% for total chlorine, and 0.9% for chloride. Second, the relative changes calculated from adaptively transformed residual chlorine measurements were quantitatively related to contaminant-chlorine reactivity in drinking water. We have shown that based on these kinetic and chemical differences, the tested contaminants were distinguishable in forensic discrimination diagrams made of adaptively transformed sensor measurements.

Abstract
A modified one-dimensional Danckwerts convection-dispersion-reaction (CDR) model is numerically simulated to explain the observed chlorine residual loss for a "slug" of reactive contaminants instantaneously introduced into a drinking water pipe of assumed no or negligible wall demand. In response to longitudinal dispersion, a contaminant propagates into the bulk phase where it reacts with disinfectants in the water. This process generates a U-shaped pattern of chlorine residual loss in a time-series concentration plot. Numerical modeling indicates that the residual loss curve geometry (i.e., slope, depth, and width) is a function of several variables such as axial Péclet number, reaction rate constants, molar fraction of the fast- and slow-reacting contaminants, and the quasi-steady-state chlorine decay inside the "slug" which serves as a boundary condition of the CDR model. Longitudinal dispersion becomes dominant for less reactive contaminants. Pilot-scale pipe flow experiments for a non-reactive sodium fluoride tracer and the fast-reacting aldicarb, a pesticide, were conducted under turbulent flow conditions (Re=9020 and 25,000). Both the experimental results and the CDR modeling are in agreement showing a close relationship among the aldicarb contaminant "slug", chlorine residual loss and its variations, and a concentration increase of chloride as the final reaction product. Based on these findings, the residual loss curve and its geometry are useful tools to identify the presence of a contaminant "slug" and infer its reactive properties in adaptive contaminant detections.
