Research of the Flow Field Characteristics of Flake Graphite in the Fan Shaped Nozzle of Premixed Water Jet

Abstract

AbstractGraphite is an important strategic resource, in order to explore the flow performance of flake graphite in the flow field of the premixed water jet fan nozzle, numerical simulation of nozzle flow field was carried out by FLUENT software. According to the jet characteristics, the Euler model is selected to simulate the two-phase flow law of water and flake graphite, and standard k-ε turbulence model is selected as the turbulence model, the influence of different inlet pressure on the flow field distribution of flake graphite was analyzed. The results show that the axial velocity distribution of flake graphite flow field under different inlet pressures is similar, and the distribution cloud chart has significant plane symmetry, the jet plane diffuses outward at a certain angle. With the increase of target distance, the jet section changes from a flat structure to a symmetrical “groove” structure with high ends and low middle, the axial velocity of flake graphite flow field has secondary acceleration in the internal flow field and primary acceleration in the outward flow field, the maximum axial velocity appears near the nozzle outlet.
