Abstract

Based on the CFD-DPM method, the numerical simulation of gas-liquid two phase flow in annular gap venturi with different annular gap trip and liquid/gas ratio at the same gas flow rate was carried out in this paper. The results show that the pressure drop at the contraction section of venturi accounts for about 75% of the total pressure drop, and the pressure drop at the throat is about 20% of the total pressure drop. The average velocity of flue gas at the throat ranges from 106 to 192m/s. The total pressure drop of the venturi is proportional to the liquid/gas ratio at the constant annular gap trip, and the larger the annular gap trip, the greater the effect of the liquid/gas ratio on the pressure drop. As the annular gap trip is 800∼900mm, the effect of liquid/gas ratio on the pressure drop is significant. The total pressure drop of the venturi and the droplets concentration at the venturi inlet are proportional to the annular gap trip at the constant liquid/gas ratio, and the growth rate of the pressure drop is greater with the annular gap trip as the annular gap trip is larger than 700mm. In addition, the growth rate of the droplets concentration at the venturi outlet also increases with the annular gap trip.
