Simulation of two-phase flow in network mixers using periodic boundary conditions

NETmix is a network mixer comprising mixing chambers interconnected by channels. Recently, a reduced geometry CFD model, the LoopNUB, was introduced for simulating single-phase flow with heat transfer in NETmix by imposing periodic conditions around the four unit cells of the network. This work proposes using LoopNUB, reducing the simulation domain by 2.3 compared to the geometry (ExtendedNUB) previously used t...

Flow dynamics studies in the NETmix reactor for a large range of flowrate ratio...

The mixing dynamics that occur inside the NETmix reactor have been previously thoroughly studied for equal feed streams distributed through the inlets. To broaden the applicability of this static mixer, this work intends to expand the knowledge of the mixing dynamics mechanisms for cases where dissimilar inlet flowrates are imposed. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) tools were used to simulate flow dynamics ex...
