  1. Free Surface Flow Phenomena: Effects on MHD flow control and interfacial transport Mohamed Abdou DOE Budget Meeting, Germantown March 13, 2001

  2. What is a truly “free” surface? • Constant pressure, moving boundary unable to support an applied pressure gradient or shear stress. • Term is often used for any gas/void to liquid interface where material properties change dramatically and surface tension or wave phenomena is observed. Bubble rising and coalescence - Kunugi Calculation Shear layer instability at water surface - Dabari data

  3. Turbulence structures generated at the liquid-solid interface heavily effect heat and mass transfer across interface (Illustration from Rashidi) Important free surface flow phenomenaaffecting flow control and interfacial transport • Modification of turbulence and secondary flows by free surface • MHD interactions with turbulence, bulk flow, and surface stability • Turbulence production and movement in complex geometries • Variation of physical properties with scalar temperature/concentration

  4. Liquid Jet and Film Stability and Dynamics: fuel injection, combustion processes, water jet cutting, ink jet printers, continuous rod/sheet/ribbon/sphere casting, flood/jet soldering, ocean waves, boat hull design, ocean/river structure engineering, surfing, liquid walls for fusion Liquid MHD / free surface interactions: melt/mold stirring and heating, liquid jet/flow control and shaping, crystal growth, astrophysical phenomena, liquid metal walls for particle accelerators and fusion reactors Liquid MHD / turbulence interactions: microstructure control in casting, boundary layer control, astrophysical dynamos and plasmas, liquid walls for particle Free surface heat and mass transfer: oceanography, meteorology, global climate change, wetted-wall absorbers/chemical reactor, condensers, vertical tube evaporator, film cooling of turbine blades, impurity control in casting, liquid walls for particle accelerators and fusion reactors Free surfaces flow phenomena are critical in many industrial and scientific processes Turbulent flow effect on dendrite formation in casting - Juric simulation

  5. Increasing Green House Gases: Humidity, CO2, Methane, NOx, Sox etc. I.R. Absorption Sun I.R. Radiation Infra Red Absorption into Green House Gases and on the Earth surface Earth Preserving Heat in the Air Air Temperature Rise in the Air I.R.:Infra Red What is Global Warming? Temperature Rise (K) Year

  6. Wind flow Free surface mass transport is affecting CO2 concentrations Missing Sink Problem over past 30 years Measured atmospheric CO2 increase (34 ppm) - Spent Fossile Fuel emissions (61 ppm) = Missing Sink(-27 ppm) ? Turbulent Heat and Mass transfer across Free Surface ? CO2 absorption at the turbulent free-surface deformed by the shear wind, by means of direct numerical solution procedure for a coupled gas-liquid flow Free surface contour - wind-driven calculation

  8. Some Common Aspects between Global Warming Problem and Fusion Science Thermofluid Research • Similar Phenomena • High Pr flow with radiation heating at free surface from plasma • High Sc flow with CO2 absorption at free surface of sea • Similar Flow Characteristics • Re is high, both have the similar turbulence characteristics. • MHD (fusion) and Coriollis (global warming) forces can influence the average velocity • Heat and Mass Transfer Similarity • High Pr, very low thermal diffusivity->very thin thermal boundary layer->large temperature gradient at interface • High Sc, very low molecular diffusivity->very thin concentration boundary layer->large concentration gradient at interface • .

  9. Liquid Jet Stability and Breakup Injet Printer quality is hampered by formation of “satellite” droplets Simulation of commercial inkjet by Rider, Kothe, et al. micro commercial Micro-injector increases relative importance of surface tension by decreasing size - eliminates satellite droplets and improves precision Data from Ho

  10. Vertical B field effects on Liquid Metal Film Flows Continuous sheet casting can achieve smoothly increasing film thickness control via MHD forces Film thickness profiles for various Hartmann Numbers Simulation by Lofgren, et al.

  11. Liquid Jet Research for IFE Chambers • High-velocity, oscillating jets for liquid “pocket” • flow trajectory and jet deformation • primary breakup / droplet formation • dissembly processes • liquid debris interaction / clearance • partial head recovery • High-velocity, low surface-ripple jets for liquid “grid” • surface smoothness control • pointing accuracy / vibration • primary breakup / droplet ejection Graphics from UCB

  12. Simulations from UCLA Regions flattened by interaction with neighboring jet Oscillating jet experiments and simulations • Single jet water experiments and numerical simulations show proper trajectory at near prototypic Re • Turbulent eddy effect on droplet ejection is accurately modeled in either experiment or simulation Data from UCB

  13. Modeling of Stationary Jet Deformation • Initially rectangular jets deform due to surface tension and corner region pressurization in nozzle • Capillary wave fans from corner regions propagate across jet face - largest source of surface roughness • Numerical simulations with integral turbulence models are being used to redesign nozzle shape and exit cross-section to avoid these effects.
