Abstract
In the process of measuring micro-leakage based on the bubble method, the physical parameters of the liquid phase have a great impact on the formation and movement of bubbles, thus affecting the measurement accuracy of the system. Therefore, it is of great significance to study the physical parameters of the liquid phase. At present, it is difficult to independently study the parameters of the liquid phase by experimental methods. In this paper, based on the Cahn-Hilliard phase field model, a gas-liquid two-phase flow model for the expression of leakage is established to independently study the influence of different physical parameters on the formation and movement of bubbles in the measuring system. Firstly, the effects of liquid medium density, dynamic viscosity coefficient and surface tension on the initial shape (aspect ratio), the generation period and the shape oscillation of bubbles after they leave the nozzle are analyzed. Then, an experimental platform for visualization of bubbles in two-phase flow based on machine vision is built, through which the morphological parameters of bubbles in the liquid phase can be obtained in real time. Finally, the results of visualization experiment and numerical simulation are compared. The results show that the initial aspect ratio error of bubbles obtained by visual experiment and numerical simulation is 1.8%, and the average oscillation period error is 12.3%. The results are basically consistent, which proves the rationality and correctness of the mathematical model established. It is found that the liquid with larger dynamic viscosity coefficient μ and density ρ and smaller surface tension σ can be selected as the liquid medium of the measurement system. It is more conducive to the accurate expression of micro-leakage in the measurement system, and the bubble shape can quickly reach a stable state. It provides theoretical support for improving the accuracy and stability of the micro-leakage measurement system.
