摘要
文中基于能量基本方程分析引起能量分离的原因,利用FLUENT软件选用标准k-ε模型进行数值模拟,研究涡流管入口温度、压力以及冷气流率对其性能的影响规律。结果表明:在一定范围内,入口压力越大,涡流管能量分离效应越好;入口温度对涡流管能量分离效应的影响很小;冷气流率在0.16%时涡流管的制冷效果最好,冷气流率在0.75%时涡流管制热效果最好。
Analyzing the reasons of energy separation base on the fundamental equation of energy and using the standard k-ε model of FLUENT software to simulate the influence of the inlet temperature,pressure and cold flow rate on its performance. The results show that the larger the inlet pressure is,the better the energy separation effect of vortex tube is. The effect of inlet temperature on the energy separation effect of vortex tube is very small. The cooling efficiency of vortex tube is the best when the cold flow rate is 0. 16%,and the heating efficiency of vortex tube is the best when the cold flow rate is 0. 75%.
