Computer Simulation of the Hydrodynamics of a Centrifugal Cryogranulator

  • Published:
Chemical and Petroleum Engineering Aims and scope

A computer simulation of the model liquid flow and liquid nitrogen in a centrifugal cryogranulator was performed. This work presents a good convergence of the results of computer modeling on a model liquid (water) and a full-scale experiment with model parameters, namely, the SST k–w-turbulence model together with equilibrium wall FlowVision functions. The field of liquid nitrogen flow velocities in the volume of the centrifugal cryogranulator is determined.
