  • Thermophoretic particle deposition efficiency in turbulent Tube Flow
    Journal of The Chinese Institute of Chemical Engineers, 2008
    Co-Authors: Jyh-shyan Lin, Chuen-jinn Tsai, Kuo-lun Tung, Hann-chyuan Chiang
    Abstract:

    Abstract This study investigated the thermophoretic particle deposition efficiency numerically. The critical trajectory was used to calculate thermophoretic particle deposition in turbulent Tube Flow. The numerical results obtained in turbulent Flow regime in this study were validated by particle deposition efficiency measurements with monodisperse particles (particle diameter ranges from 0.038 to 0.498 μm) in a Tube (1.18 m long, 0.43 cm i.d., stainless-steel Tube). The theoretical predictions are found to fit the experimental data of Tsai et al. [Tsai, C. J., J. S. Lin, S. G. Aggarwal, and D. R. Chen, “Thermophoretic Deposition of Particles in Laminar and Turbulent Tube Flows,” Aerosol Sci. Technol. , 38 , 131 (2004)] very well in turbulent Flows. In addition, an empirical expression has been developed to predict the thermophoretic deposition efficiency in turbulent Tube Flow.

  • Suppression of particle deposition in Tube Flow by thermophoresis
    Journal of Aerosol Science, 2004
    Co-Authors: Jyh-shyan Lin, Chuen-tinn Tsai, Cheng Ping Chang
    Abstract:

    Suppression of particle deposition from Flow through a Tube with circular cross-section was investigated numerically and experimentally for the case when the wall temperature exceeds that of the gas. Particle transport equations for convection, diffusion and thermophoresis were solved numerically to obtain particle concentration profiles and deposition efficiencies. The numerical results were validated by particle deposition efficiency measurements with monodisperse particles. For all particle sizes, the particle deposition efficiency was found to decrease with increasing Tube wall temperature and gas Flow rate. Particle deposition was suppressed completely when the Tube wall was heated to a certain temperature slightly above that of the gas Flow. An empirical expression has been developed to predict the dimensionless temperature difference needed for zero deposition efficiency in a laminar Tube Flow for a given dimensionless deposition parameter.

  • attenuation of concentration fluctuations of water vapor and other trace gases in turbulent Tube Flow
    Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2008
    Co-Authors: W J Massman, Andreas Ibrom
    Abstract:

    Recent studies with closed-path eddy covariance (EC) systems have indicated that the attenuation of fluctuations of water vapor concentration is dependent upon ambient relative humidity, presumably due to sorption/desorption of water molecules at the interior surface of the Tube. Previous studies of EC-related Tube attenuation effects have either not considered this issue at all or have only examined it superficially. Nonetheless, the attenuation of water vapor fluctuations is clearly much greater than might be expected from a passive tracer in turbulent Tube Flow. This study reexamines the turbulent Tube Flow issue for both passive and sorbing tracers with the intent of developing a physically-based semi-empirical model that describes the attenuation associated with water vapor fluctuations. Toward this end, we develop a new model of Tube Flow dynamics (radial profiles of the turbulent diffusivity and Tube airstream velocity). We compare our new passive-tracer formulation with previous formulations in a systematic and unified way in order to assess how sensitive the passive-tracer results depend on fundamental modeling assumptions. We extend the passive tracer model to the vapor sorption/desorption case by formulating the model's wall boundary condition in terms of a physically-based semi-empirical model of the sorption/desorption vapor fluxes. Finally we synthesize all modeling and observational results into a single analytical expression that captures the effects of the mean ambient humidity and Tube Flow (Reynolds number) on Tube attenuation.
