Design optimization of guide vane for mitigating elbow erosion using computational fluid dynamics and response surface methodology
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract A 90° elbow equipped with guide vanes was developed with the intent of reducing elbow erosion. Numerical models were formed to predict the maximum erosion rate of elbow and Face-1, and the response surface methodology was used to study the relationship between the erosion rate and structural parameters of guide vane. A second-order response surface model was established to determine the relationship between R1 and variables, and a reduced cubic (RC) polynomial model was obtained to reveal the relationship between R2 and the three factors. The numerical results show that the low-speed region is expended and the maximum discrete particle matter (DPM) concentration is reduced after installing the guide vane. This internal component provides a shelter for the elbow from the direct impact of high-speed solids.
