Gas induced injection of liquid inhibitor agents
In this contribution the gas induced injection and blending of an inhibitor solution in a stationary low viscosity liquid media are handled. For the description of the transient turbulent gas/liquid-fiow with dispersed gas phase in a vessel or tank a two-fluid Eulerian approach is employed. Time averaged continuity and momentum equations are solved using a modified k-epsilon-turbulence model and the finite-volume method. The experimental investigations of the flow field are done with laser Doppler anemometry. The calculated results are compared with a number of experimental data and satisfactory agreements are obtained.
