Titre : Parallel flow through ordered fibers : an analytical approach Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : A. Tamayol, Auteur ; M.

Note générale : fluids engineering Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : flow  (dynamics);  permeability;  fibers;  computer  simulation;  cylinders;  poisson  equation;  porosity Index. décimale : 620.1 Essais des matériaux. Défauts des matériaux. Protection des matériaux Résumé : In this study, fully developed flow parallel to ordered fibers is investigated analytically. The considered fibrous media are made up of in-line (square), staggered, and hexagonal arrays of cylinders. Starting from the general solution of Poisson’s equation, compact analytical solutions are proposed for both velocity distribution and permeability of the considered structures. In addition, independent numerical simulations are performed for the considered arrangements over the entire range of porosity and the results are compared with the proposed solutions. The developed solutions are successfully verified through comparison with experimental data, collected by others, and the present numerical results over a wide range of porosity. The results show that for the ordered arrangements with high porosity, the parallel permeability is independent of the microstructure geometrical arrangements; on the other hand, for lower porosities the hexagonal arrangement provides lower pressure drop, as expected.

Slip-flow pressure drop in microchannels of general cross section / M. Bahrami in Transactions of the ASME . Journal of fluids engineering, Vol. 131 N° 3 (Mars 2009) 

Public ISBD [article]  in Transactions of the ASME . Journal of fluids engineering > Vol. 131 N° 3 (Mars 2009) . - 08 p. Titre : Slip-flow pressure drop in microchannels of general cross section Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : M. Bahrami, Auteur ; A. Tamayol, Auteur ; P. Taheri, Auteur Année de publication : 2009 Article en page(s) : 08 p. Note générale : fluids engineering Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : compact  analytical  model;  pressure  drop Résumé : In the present study, a compact analytical model is developed to determine the pressure drop of fully-developed, incompressible, and constant properties slip-flow through arbitrary cross section microchannels. An averaged first-order Maxwell slip boundary condition is considered. Introducing a relative velocity, the difference between the bulk flow and the boundary velocities, the axial momentum reduces to Poisson’s equation with homogeneous boundary condition. Square root of area is selected as the characteristic length scale. The model of (2006, “ Pressure Drop of Laminar, Fully Developed Flow in Microchannels of Arbitrary Cross Section,” ASME J. Fluids Eng., 128, pp. 1036–1044), which was developed for no-slip boundary condition, is extended to cover the slip-flow regime in this study. The proposed model for pressure drop is a function of geometrical parameters of the channel: cross sectional area, perimeter, polar moment of inertia, and the Knudsen number. The model is successfully validated against existing numerical and experimental data collected from different sources in literature for several shapes, including circular, rectangular, trapezoidal, and double-trapezoidal cross sections and a variety of gases such as nitrogen, argon, and helium.
