Abstract
In order to study the particles' motion law and collision behavior in the flow field of the turbo air classifier, A particle motion simulation platform is developed using Compute Unified Device Architecture (CUDA) based on the Visual Studio. The particle-eddy interaction model, the particle-wall collision model, and the inter-particle collision Direct Simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) solver are implemented. The results show that the deviation between calculated cut size d50 and experimental d50 using DSMC is smallest compared to DSMC, DDPM and DPM. DSMC has better acceleration performance compared to DDPM. The more particles need to be calculated, the more significant this advantage is. The influences of feeding rate on particle volume fractions and inter-particle collision number are analyzed. The increase of feeding rate leads to the increase of the particle volume fractions and inter-particle collision number.
期刊介绍:
Powder Technology is an International Journal on the Science and Technology of Wet and Dry Particulate Systems. Powder Technology publishes papers on all aspects of the formation of particles and their characterisation and on the study of systems containing particulate solids. No limitation is imposed on the size of the particles, which may range from nanometre scale, as in pigments or aerosols, to that of mined or quarried materials. The following list of topics is not intended to be comprehensive, but rather to indicate typical subjects which fall within the scope of the journal's interests:
Formation and synthesis of particles by precipitation and other methods.
Modification of particles by agglomeration, coating, comminution and attrition.
Characterisation of the size, shape, surface area, pore structure and strength of particles and agglomerates (including the origins and effects of inter particle forces).
Packing, failure, flow and permeability of assemblies of particles.
Particle-particle interactions and suspension rheology.
Handling and processing operations such as slurry flow, fluidization, pneumatic conveying.
Interactions between particles and their environment, including delivery of particulate products to the body.
Applications of particle technology in production of pharmaceuticals, chemicals, foods, pigments, structural, and functional materials and in environmental and energy related matters.
For materials-oriented contributions we are looking for articles revealing the effect of particle/powder characteristics (size, morphology and composition, in that order) on material performance or functionality and, ideally, comparison to any industrial standard.
