Influence of flow channel geometry and droplet size on containment subcompartment analysis

  • 1. Dept. of Chemical and Nuclear Engineering, Univ. of Maryland, College Park, MD 20742

Description

This study quantifies the effects of suspended droplets on the flow characteristic of fluids being transported between containment compartments. The results show that for constant upstream conditions, the calculated pressure differences depend not only on the mass flux but also on the droplet size and the absolute dimensions describing the flow field
