Research on the transport and deposition of nanoparticles in a rotating curved pipe

Jianzhong Lin, Peifeng Lin, and Huajun Chen<br/> A finite-volume code and the SIMPLE scheme are used to study the transport and deposition of nanoparticles in a rotating curved pipe for different angular velocities, Dean numbers, and Schmidt numbers. The results show that when the Schmidt number is small, the nanoparticle distributions are mostly … [Phys. Fluids 21, 122001 (2009)] published Mon Dec 14, 2009.
