TITLE : ALGEBRAIC SLIP MODEL - OIL SEPARATION IN A CIRCULAR PIPE

BY : CHAM Consultancy Team - J Heritage
FOR : Demonstration Case
DATE : 1993
PHOENICS VERSION : 2.0

DETAILS :

• Three-Dimensional, Steady-state elliptic simulation
• Polar computational grid

NOTES :

• Calculates the accumulation of two groups of particles of different diameters along the bottom of a circular pipe
• The Algebraic Slip Model is used to solve this problem
• Slip velocities are normal to the continuous phase flow direction
• Larger particles fall to the bottom more quickly than the smaller ones
• This forces the liquid to rise up bringing the smaller particles with it
