摘要
为了研究交流电场对附壁气泡动力学行为的影响,采用基于FLUENT软件的VOF+LS+SPP方法对余弦交流电场作用下CCl4液体中附着在水平板上的气泡的动力学行为特性进行了模拟研究。利用VOF+LS+SPP方法数值模拟了直流电场作用下附壁气泡的形变过程,并与文献中实验结果对比,验证了该方法适用于附壁气泡的动态特性研究;对比了直流电场和余弦交流电场作用下气泡的脱离时间,研究表明,直流电场作用下,电压需要接近40kV气泡才能脱离壁面;而在余弦交流电场作用下电压为20kV时气泡就可脱离壁面;分析了在余弦交流电场作用下,不同角频率和电压对附壁气泡动态特性的影响规律,结果表明,电压一定时,气泡的脱离时间随着角频率ω的增大而减小,但当角频率ω超过最优角频率时,气泡的脱离时间将增大;当角频率保持不变时,电压越大,气泡脱离时间越短。
The boiling heat transfer performance is closely related to the dynamic behavior of bubbles attached to the wall during boiling.In this paper,a VOF+LS+SPP method,based on FLUENT software,is used to study the effect of cosine AC electric field on the dynamics of an air bubble attached to a horizontal plate and surrounded by liquid CCl4.The VOF+LS+SPP method is utilized to simulate the deformation of the air bubble under the DC electric field.The simulation results are verified by the experimental data in the literature,proving the feasibility of the numerical method.It is found that the bubble will separate from the wall when the voltage reaches 40 kV under the action of the DC electric field.However,for the AC electric field,a lower voltage of 20 kV can make the bubble depart from the wall.The influence of the different angular frequencies and voltages on the bubble dynamic behavior is analyzed numerically under the action of the AC electric field.The results show that when the voltage remains unchanged,the departure time of bubbles is reduced with the increase of the angular frequency.But when the angular frequency exceeds the optimal value,the departure time of bubble will increase with the growing of the angular frequency.When the angular frequency remains constant,the bubble departure time is shortened with the increase of the voltage.
