Abstract
The innovation of this paper is geometric parameters effects of the oil transmission pipelines on the suspended solid particles. This geometry has been simulated with the Lattice Boltzmann Method based on D2Q9 model for analyzing solid particle tracing, streamlines, solid particle volume fraction, and nondimensional velocity field of fluid flow. These parameters have been investigated in 9 cases of the oil transmission pipelines at two different intensity of fluid flow. The results signified that maximum and minimum ranges of fluid velocity at [Formula: see text] were in case 3 that the oil transmission pipelines with diameter of the pipeline and bending radius, D and 2D, respectively. Also, maximum volume fraction of solid particles at bending radius at [Formula: see text] was in case 3 with diameter of the pipeline and bending radius, D and 2D, respectively. Also, in case 9, solid particles in the oil transmission pipelines were almost symmetrical. Finally, with comparison between figures of solid particles tracing and volume fraction of solid particles, by increasing of the diameter of oil transmission pipelines, the sediment of solid particles was decreased, also, by increasing of the bending radius of oil transmission pipelines, the sediment of solid particles was increased.
