Particle transport

The previous investigations of hard particle transport processes during laser beam dispersing have shown, that the high speed microfocus radioscopy system is a usable arrangement to observe and analyse the movements, velocities and accelerations of particles inside the molten bath. That possibility was, until now, not given by conventional techniques of process... 

The investigations show that the microfocus high speed radioscopy system is suitable for monitoring the hard particle transport during laser beam dispersing. It is possible to observe and analyse the processes inside the molten bath with the presented test equipment. As a consequence a basis for correlation with the results of a simulation is available. 

HOTM AC/RAPTAD contains individual codes HOTMAC (Higher Order Turbulence Model for Atmospheric Circulation), RAPTAD (Random Particle Transport and Diffusion), and computer modules HOTPLT, RAPLOT, and CONPLT for displaying the results of the ctdculalinns. HOTMAC uses 3-dimensional, time-dependent conservation equations to describe wind, lempcrature, moisture, turbulence length, and turbulent kinetic energy. 

The physical transport of particles in a river occurs by two primary modes bedload and suspended load. Bedload consists of material moved along the bed of the river by the tractive force exerted by flowing water. Bedload may roll or hop along the bottom, and individual particles may remain stationary for long periods of time between episodes of movement. Suspended load consists of material suspended within the flow and that is consequently advected by flowing water. Rivers and streams are naturally turbulent, and if the upward component of turbulence is sufficient to overcome the settling velocity of a particle, then it will tend to remain in suspension because the particles become resuspended before they can settle to the bottom of the flow. Suspended load consists of the finest particles transported by a river, and in general is composed of clay- and silt-sized... 

However, production engineers have been reluctant to use particle bridging because of the possibility of particle transport into the formation, resulting in formation damage and/or costly and often ineffective stimulation treatments. A particle bridging fluid has been developed that quickly and effectively controls fluid loss in a wide range of permeabilities and pore diameters [916].
