摘要(Abstract):
采用高速摄像仪对不等宽T型分岔微通道中气泡的破裂和体积分配规律进行了研究,分别考察了气液流量与液相黏度对气泡分配规律的影响,同时研究了子气泡对气泡破裂的反馈效应。结果表明:由于微通道下游子气泡对分岔口处气泡破裂的反馈效应,两个子气泡体积分配比V_2/V_1随气液流量比的增大呈先增大后减小的非线性变化趋势。随无量纲母气泡体积V_0/w_0~2h的增大,V_2/V_1也呈先增大后减小的变化趋势,并且存在一个临界无量纲母气泡体积(V_0/w_0~2h)c。在实验范围内,气液流量比对(V_0/w_0~2h)c的影响较大,而液相黏度对(V_0/w_0~2h)c的影响可以忽略。提出了子气泡体积分配比的关联式,计算值和实验结果吻合良好。
