Abstract

Fluctuant pressure coefficient is presented as an index of vortex energy of the wake behind a bluff body in mist flow. Calculation for vortex energy is obtained from inter-phase force analysis, based on Basset-Boussinesq-Oseen equation and conservation of mechanical energy. Vortex energy is weakened by liquid disturbance, the relationship between the fluctuant pressure coefficient and liquid velocity is set up on theory analysis. An existence criterion for vortex streets is proposed using the relationship. A new algorithm for prediction of liquid velocity is put forward and compared with the method in Higham's patent. The predicted results fit the experimental results well.
