Title in Portuguese
Modelação numérica da interface ar-água em processos de absorção e dessorção de gases em tanques cilíndricos
Keywords in Portuguese
absorção e dessorção de gases
modelação numérica
turbinas inclinadas de escoamento descendente
turbulência na interface ar-água
Abstract in Portuguese
Um modelo numérico computacional foi desenvolvido para simular o escoamento turbulento e a transferência de gases na interface ar-água em tanque cilíndrico, em domínio bi-dimensional, pelo método de volumes finitos, utilizando o modelo de turbulência k-E padrão. O método utilizado para o acoplamento velocidade-pressão foi o SIMPLER. Utilizou-se a compartimentalização do domínio computacional em cinco regiões principais, a fim de melhor implementar o algoritmocomputacional. O desenvolvimento da estrutura da malha foi feito para que fosse possível a sua implementação em computadores de pequeno porte, com técnicas de otimização de memória. Para o contorno na superfície líquida foram utilizadas as condições de contorno free-slip e no-slip, e uma aproximação simplificada para a taxa de dissipação de energia. Os resultados de transferência de massa obtidos pela simulação foram comparados com aqueles obtidos em experimentos da literatura

Abstract in English
A computational numerical model was developed to simulate turbulent flows and gas transfer processes at the air-water interface in cylindrical tanks. The classical discretization of complet domain by the finit volum method was used. As a result of this methodology, a non linear system of equations is obtained. This system was solved using special memory optimization tecniques, allowing to implement the numerical algorithms in small personal computers. The standard K- E have been employed to predict the flow generated by PTD in cylindrical baffed vessel. The SIMPLER algorithm was used for the treatment of the pressure-velocit coupling. The computational program TANK.FOR was elabored to simulate and to predict the two-dimensional flow in stirred tanks. A very dense grid in axial-direction was used to capture at least three points at the long the width of the impeller. Topics regarding to air-water interfaces, geometry of hydrodinamic systems, models for turbulent flows, are broached. For the air-water interface boundaries the free-slip and no-slip condictions at the liquid surface was used, together with a simplified approximation for the local energy dissipation rate. The mass transfer results were compared with experimental data of the literature.
