Dusty Gas Flow past Bodies under Scattering of Rebounded Particles

Abstract

Two-phase gas-particle flow over a flat plate of finite thickness in a channel at a high subsonic velocity and supersonic transverse flow past a cylinder are considered. The leading edge of the plate is wedge-shaped or represents a smooth bluntness of constant radius. The wedge surface and the front bluntness are specified both smooth and rough. The roughness is modeled by a two-dimensional profile based on an experiment. Spherical particles and a mixture of particles in the form of ellipsoids of revolution, rectangular prisms, prisms with flat-cut vertices, and tetrahedrons are considered. The parameters of each of the forms vary. The impact interaction model proposed earlier and consistent with the experimental data on the coefficients of restitution of the center-of-mass velocity is used to determine the translational and rotational velocities of non-spherical particles after rebound. Along with monosized particles, a dispersed phase with a spread of particles in size is considered. The role of the studied factors of random nature which affect the flow pattern and the dispersed phase parameters is found.
