Shear stress is often present in the blood flow within blood-contacting devices, which is the leading cause of hemolysis. However, the simulation method for blood flow with shear stress is still not perfect, especially the multiphase flow model and experimental verification. In this regard, this study proposes an enhanced discrete phase model for multiphase flow simulation of blood flow with shear stress. This simulation is based on the discrete phase model (DPM). According to the multiphase flow characteristics of blood, a virtual mass force model and a pressure gradient influence model are added to the calculation of cell particle motion. In the experimental verification, nozzle models were designed to simulate the flow with shear stress, varying the degree of shear stress through different nozzle sizes. The microscopic flow was measured by the Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) experimental method. The comparison of the turbulence models and the verification of the simulation accuracy were carried out based on the experimental results. The result demonstrates that the simulation effect of the SST k- ω model is better than other standard turbulence models. Accuracy analysis proves that the simulation results are accurate and can capture the movement of cell-level particles in the flow with shear stress. The results of the research are conducive to obtaining accurate and comprehensive analysis results in the equipment development phase.

This paper presents the results of numerical flow simulation in ventilation mill of Kostolac B power plant, where louvers and centrifugal separator with adjustable blade angle are used. Numerical simulations of multiphase flow were performed using the Euler-Euler and Euler-Lagrange approach of ANSYS FLUENT software package. The results of numerical simulations are compared with measurements in the mill for both types of separators. Due to very complex geometry and large number of the grid cells, convergent solution with the Eulerian model could not be obtained. For this reason the mixture model was employed resulting in very good agreement with measurements, concerning the gas mixture distribution and velocity at the main and secondary burners. There was large difference between the numerical results and measurements for the pulverized coal distribution at the burners. Taking into consideration that we analyzed dilute mixture with very low volume fraction of the coal, the only choice was the Euler-Lagrange approach, i.e. discrete phase model limited to volume fraction of the discrete phase less than 10-12%. Obtained distributions of the coal at the burners agree well for both types of separators.
