Abstract:
The motion and heat and mass transfer of particles of a disperse admixture in nonisothermal jets of a gas and a low-temperature plasma are simulated with allowance for the migration mechanism of particle motion actuated by the turbophoresis force and the influence of turbulent fluctuations of the jet flow velocity on heat and mass transfer of the particle. The temperature distribution inside the particle at each time step is found by solving the equation of unsteady heat conduction. The laws of scattering of the admixture and the laws of melting and evaporation of an individual particle are studied, depending on the injection velocity and on the method of particle insertion into the jet flow. The calculated results are compared with data obtained with ignored influence of turbulent fluctuations on the motion and heat and mass transfer of the disperse phase.
