Hydrodynamics of the rivulet flow over corrugated sheet used in structured packings

Journal Article Singh, Rajesh K. ; Galvin, Janine E. ; Sun, Xin - International Journal of Greenhouse Gas Control

We have numerically investigated the breakup of a rivulet falling over a smooth inclined plate using the volume of fluid method. The breakup the rivulet is a complex phenomenon that is dictated by many factors, such as solvent properties, contact angle, inertia, plate inclination, etc. An extensive simulation campaign was conducted wherein these factors were systematically investigated. Regimes for a stable rivulet and an unstable rivulet that leads to the breakup and formation of a droplet are examined in terms of a critical value of the Weber number (Wecr) that delineates these regimes. The effect of plate inclination on themore »« less

Three-dimensional simulation of rivulet and film flows over an inclined plate: Effects of solvent properties and contact angle

Journal Article Singh, Rajesh K. ; Galvin, Janine E. ; Sun, Xin - Chemical Engineering Science

We numerically investigated the film flow down an inclined plate using the volume of fluid (VOF) method. The flow simulations have been systematically carried out for a wide range of parameters, such as inlet size, inclination angle, contact angle, flow rates and solvent properties (viscosity and surface tension). Based on the simulation results, scaling theory is proposed for both interfacial area and for film thickness in terms of the Kapitza number (Ka).The Kapitza number is advantageous because it depends only on solvent properties. The Kapitza number decreases with increased solvent viscosity and is fixed for a given fluid. Here, tomore »« less

Multiphase flow studies for microscale hydrodynamics in the structured packed column

Journal Article Singh, Rajesh K. ; Galvin, Janine E. ; Sun, Xin - Chemical Engineering Journal

Post combustion carbon capture by solvent absorption in a structured packed column is a promising technology for mitigating greenhouse gas emissions. Computational fluid dynamic (CFD) modelling of such a column is a challenging multiscale problem due to the range in length and time scales. The microscale hydrodynamics play a key role in the overall column efficiency with the interfacial area significantly influencing the mass transfer between the gas and liquid phases. In this context, multiphase flow simulations using the volume of fluid (VOF) method in a representative elementary unit (REU) of the packed column can provide fundamental insights into themore »« less
