Abstract

To investigate the influence of the chord length and frequency of an oscillating hydrofoil device on the discharge characteristics of floating particulate matter, in this study, we take raceway aquaculture as an example and systematically compare and analyze the flow field characteristics of the hydrofoil device with different chord lengths and frequencies, as well as the sewage discharge performance of the raceway based on Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). The results indicate that in the particulate matter discharge process of raceway aquaculture, when the chord length and motion frequency of the hydrofoil device are 0.1 W (W is the width of the raceway) and 1.0 Hz, respectively, the anti-Karman vortex streets produced by the hydrofoil device are less affected by the wall, the flow field is the most uniform, the particulate matter discharge performance is the best, and the final floating particulate matter discharge rate reaches up to 99.09%. Adjusting the chord length of the hydrofoil can effectively ameliorate flow field reflux issues, enhancing the uniformity and flow performance of the flow field. When the chord length is 0.1 W, the uniformity of the flow field is optimal. When the chord length is 0.2 W, the flow performance of the flow field is superior. Increasing the frequency enhances the flow performance of the flow field, with an average increase of 0.1 Hz in motion frequency leading to a 19.42% improvement in the average velocity at the outlet. Based on this, we recommend the use of a hydrofoil device with a chord length of 0.1 W and a motion frequency of 1.0 Hz in the raceway aquaculture system to achieve optimal particulate matter discharge performance, providing a theoretical basis and practical guidance for using hydrofoil devices to improve the efficiency of floating particulate matter treatment in raceway aquaculture environments.
