低温喷嘴装置内流场的数值模拟研究

Numerical Study on Flow Field of Low Temperature Nozzle Device

  • 摘要: 激光抑制凝聚法(CRISLA)是目前极具工业应用潜力的激光同位素分离(LIS)方法。在应用激光抑制凝聚法分离S同位素时,需要借助低温喷嘴装置获得低温过饱和SF6气体,因此该方法的实际分离性能和优化除与激光参数相关外,还依赖于低温喷嘴装置内的流动状态,为了研究低温喷嘴装置结构和设计参数对分离性能的影响规律,优化分离性能,需要对低温喷嘴装置内的流场进行相关研究。利用计算流体动力学(CFD)方法,能够实现对低温喷嘴装置内流场的数值模拟,得到喷嘴内外的流动参数特别是温度分布。通过流场模拟的结果,验证了喷嘴设计方案,并从流体角度解释了基本分离原理。

     

    Abstract: Condensation Repression by Isotope Selective Laser Activation (CRISLA) method is the most potential LIS method for industrialized application. During the separation procedure of S isotope by CRISLA method, a kind of low temperature nozzle device is introduced to obtain low temperature supersaturated SF6 gas. On one hand, the low temperature can reduce the spectral overlap of S isotope; on the other hand, the laser represses the condensation of target SF6 molecular and the carrier gas Xe molecular, which can gain the dimer of nontarget SF6 and Xe, this phenomenon is beneficial for isotope separation. The calculation and optimization of actual performance of this kind of method is determined by not only the parameters of laser, but also the flow condition inside the low temperature nozzle device, to study the effect of structure of low temperature nozzle device on separation performance, which is the instruction of optimization of separation performance, it is necessary to study the flow field inside the low temperature nozzle device. CFD method is used to simulate the flow field inside the low temperature nozzle device. The distribution of flow parameters especially the distribution of temperature both in and out the nozzle is obtained. Through the results of the simulation of flow field, the designing scheme of nozzle is verified and a preliminary interpretation to the fundamental principles of isotope separation by low temperature nozzle device is proposed.
