  1. 1. Interaction of magnetite with soluble silicates and bentonite : implications for wet agglomeration of magnetite concentrate

    Författare :Xiaofang Yang; James McQuillan; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physical Chemistry; Fysikalisk kemi; Chemistry of Interfaces; Gränsytors kemi;

    Sammanfattning : Iron ore green pellets are produced by agglomeration of moist magnetite concentrates. The quality of green pellets is essential for the transportability and metallurgical benefits of the final product. LÄS MER

  3. 2. CFD and data-driven modeling for safe spillway discharge

    Författare :Shicheng Li; Anders Ansell; James Yang; Robert Boes; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Discharge safety; hydraulic design; spillway; discharge capacity; aerator; two-phase flow; air entrainment; energy dissipation; CFD; data-driven modeling; Betongbyggnad; Concrete Structures;

    Sammanfattning : A spillway is a crucial dam structure that regulates water levels and prevents the dam from overtopping. The majority of the dams in the world were constructed before the 1980s. Compared to the current design flood standards, many spillways are undersized, e.g. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Numerical simulations of flow discharge and behaviours in spillways

    Författare :Shicheng Li; Anders Ansell; James Yang; Sébastien Erpicum; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Spillway; step geometry; discharge prediction; flow behaviour; machine learning; computational fluid dynamics; Utskov; steggeometri; avbördningsuppskattning; flödesbeteende strömningsegenskap; maskininlärning; flödesdynamisk beräkningsanalys numerisk simulering; Betongbyggnad; Concrete Structures;

    Sammanfattning : A spillway is an important component of a dam and serves as a flood release structure. It achieves controlled discharge of water and protects the dam from overtopping. The majority of the hydropower dams were built before the 1980s, and many spillways are undersized in light of the present design flood guidelines. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Air-pocket transport in conjunction with bottom-outlet conduits for dams

    Författare :Ting Liu; Anders Wörman; James Yang; Staffan Lundström; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Air-water two-phase flow; critical velocity; diameter effect; roughness; VOF model; bottom outlet; experiment;

    Sammanfattning : Undesired air entrainment in bottom outlet conduits of dams may cause pressure transients, leading to conduit vibrations, blowback, discharge pulsation and even cavitation, and jeopardize the operational safety. Due to design limitations or construction costs, it is impossible to create an air free environment in a pressurized pipe. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Modelling air―water flows in bottom outlets of dams

    Författare :Ting Liu; James Yang; Anders Wörman; Michael Pfister; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Air pocket; Air entrainment; Bottom outlet; Critical velocity; Critical submergence; CFD; Experiment; Vortex; PIV; Two-phase air―water flow; Mark- och vattenteknik; Land and Water Resources Engineering; Civil and Architectural Engineering; Byggvetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : If air is entrained in a bottom outlet of a dam in an uncontrolled way, the resulting air pockets may cause problems such as blowback, blowout and loss of discharge capacity. In order to provide guidance for bottom outlet design and operation, this study examines how governing parameters affect air entrainment, air-pocket transport and de-aeration and the surrounding flow structure in pipe flows.
