摘要
In this work,particle transport in a fully developed turbulent 90°bend flow at the"electrostatic equi-librium"state is simulated using large eddy simulation coupled with Lagrangian particle tracking technique.The flow Reynolds numbers(based on bulk velocity)considered is from 34000 to 58000.Three particle size 5,10 and 50μm are considered and their corresponding St number are from 2.2 to 547.Simulation results of the bend flow agree well with experimental data.The electrostatic field formed in the bend is symmetric in the spanwise direction but asymmetric in the vertical direction and radial direction,which is independent of Reynolds number.The minimum electrostatic field strength occurs at r/ra=0.25 near the inner wall of the bend.Particles transported in a bend gradually accumulate near the wall due to turbophoresis,such trend is improved by electrostatics.In addition,under the effect of electrostatics,the plume pattern of particle distribution disappeared.Particle concentration at the inner wall of the bend is higher than that at the outer wall,which depends on the combined effect of elec-trostatics and Dean vortices in the bend.
