Abstract

In order to effectively reduce the erosion and wear rate of ordinary elbows and extend their service life. A stomach-type elbow was proposed, based on the theory of gas-solid two-phase flow, the Fluent software was used on the stomach-type elbow to numerically simulate and analyze fluid erosion characteristics. The analysis results show that the second circular cross-section position less than 7.5°, greater than 25.0° less than 40.0° of the gastric bend has an erosion-resistant effect, in which the second circular cross-section position of 35.0° of the gastric bend erosion-resistant effect is the best, compared with the ordinary elbow erosion-resistant performance increase by 9.88%. The flow rate increases from 8 m/s to 28 m/s, and the maximum erosion rate of the gastric bend and ordinary elbow at 35.0°, 37.5°, 30.0° and 32.5° increases by 26.08 times on average. The particle diameter increases from 45 mm to 120 mm, and the maximum erosion rate increases by 1.71 times. The mass flow rate increases from 0.02 kg/s to 0.12 kg/s, and the maximum erosion rate increases by 7.35 times. Mass flow rate increases from 0.02 kg/s to 0.12 kg/s, the maximum erosion rate increases by 7.35 times. Regardless of the flow rate, particle diameter, mass flow rate, 35.0°, 37.5°, 30.0°, 32.5° of the maximum erosion rate of the gastric bend is always less than the maximum erosion rate of the ordinary elbow, that is, all have the effect of anti-erosion, of which 35.0° of the gastric bend on the whole has the best anti-erosion effect. The elbow can effectively reduce the rate of erosion and wear to extend the service life of the pipeline, but also for the elbow of the anti-erosion structure design and optimization to provide a new design scheme.
