井下旋流除砂器流场的数值模拟.doc

不同入口设计的井下旋流除砂器流场的数值模拟 王景昌 郭付来 赵启成 吴蒙华 （大连大学机械学院 辽宁 大连 116622） 摘 要：针对井下原油防砂问题，提出了三种不同入口方式的内外双级旋流器串联式除砂器的结构模型并介绍了它的工作原理。利用TGrid程序，采用四面体网格对除砂器整体进行了网格划分，确定出边界条件。采用FLUENT软件三维数值模拟的方法，对不同入口方式的除砂器速度场、压力场、分离介质运动迹线的分布特征和介质相分布特征的数值模拟进行了研究，分析了内部分离介质流动特征对分离性能的影响。通过模拟发现除砂器内部的螺旋翅片引导流体产生涡旋流动，可以实现固液分离的目的，与传统旋流器相比，没有形成空气柱，从而使得内部流场更加稳定，有利于介质分离。不同的入口方式对除砂器内部流场产生不同的影响，切向入口时更有利于旋流的形成。为旋流器的改进、设计提供依据。 关键词：防砂；除砂器；FLUENT；数值模拟；固液分离 The numerical simulation of the flow field in the underground hydrocyclone with different entrances Wang Jingchang Guo Fulai Zhao Qicheng Wu Menghua (Dalian university Dalian 116622 China) Abstract: For preventing sand in underground oil, this paper structures a model of hydrocyclone with three different entrances and the inside cyclone and the outside one seriesing and describes how it works. By the TGrid procedures, the all of the hydrocyclone is meshed with the tetrahedral and the boundary conditions are determined. The methods of Three-dimensional numerical simulation in FLUENT are used to simulate the velocity field distribution, the pressure field distribution, the path lines of the separated medition characteristics of the separated medium and the phase distribution of the medium. The affect of the internal separated medition characteristics to the separated performance is analysed. Through the simulation, it is found that the spiral fin in the hydrocyclone can guide the fluid to produce a vortex flow to meet the purpose of separating the solid-liquid. There is no formation of the air column comparing with the conventional cyclone, so the internal flow field is more stable to conductive to the separation of the media. Different entrances produce different effects on the flow field in the desander. It provides a basis for the improvement of the cyclone.
