Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of control valve flow coefficient calculation, in particular to a method for calculating the flow coefficient of a pseudoplastic power-law fluid control valve. Background Art

[0002] As an indicator of the flow capacity of a control valve, the flow coefficient is crucial in the performance evaluation of the control valve. At present, the general flow coefficient calculation formula is only applicable to Newtonian fluids, but not to non-Newtonian fluids.

[0003] The shear stress of Newtonian fluids is linearly related to the shear deformation rate, while the shear stress of non-Newtonian fluids is nonlinearly related to the shear rate. In industrial applications, most non-Newtonian fluids are pseudoplastic fluids, also known as shear-thinning fluids, whose apparent viscosity decreases with increasing shear rate. Pseudoplastic fluids whose viscosity curves conform to the power law equation are also called pseudoplastic power-law fluids, such as PA6, PA66, HDPE, elastic polyethylene, pulp, industrial wastewater, etc. Pseudoplastic power-law fluids generally have a larger viscosity and a lower Reynolds number, and the effective flow coefficient of pipe fittings and pipelines will become smaller. In extreme cases, such as for highly viscous polymer melts, the flow has become a laminar state, and its flow rate is proportional to the pressure drop of the control valve, rather than proportional to the square root of the pressure drop of the control valve.

[0004] At present, there are only a few industry standards or specifications for determining the flow coefficient of non-Newtonian fluid control valves. At the same time, the use of numerical simulation to determine the flow coefficient of non-Newtonian fluid control valves has the problems of difficulty in establishing a three-dimensional simulation model of the control valve flow channel during the selection stage, high requirements for the completeness of basic data such as fluid physical parameters, large workload, and poor operability.

[0005] It can be seen that the above situation makes it difficult to calculate the flow coefficient of the control valve of non-Newtonian fluid. Therefore, it is urgent to propose a theoretical calculation method for the flow coefficient of the control valve of pseudoplastic power law fluid, a common non-Newtonian fluid. Summary of the invention

[0006] In order to avoid and overcome the technical problems existing in the prior art, the present invention provides a method for calculating the flow coefficient of a pseudoplastic power-law fluid control valve.

[0035] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0036] 1. The present invention proposes a method for calculating the flow coefficient of a pseudoplastic power-law fluid control valve. The method significantly improves the accuracy of the calculation through a series of precise calculation steps. First, it determines the basic process parameters based on the selected control valve and the type of pseudoplastic power-law fluid flowing through the control valve. Then, the Reynolds number, which is a key indicator for evaluating the flow characteristics of the fluid, is calculated using these parameters and the constitutive equation of the pseudoplastic power-law fluid. Then, the equivalent friction coefficient is further calculated in combination with the Reynolds number and the basic process parameters to reflect the flow resistance of the fluid in the control valve. On this basis, the Reynolds number correction coefficient and the pressure drop are calculated by the Reynolds number and the equivalent friction coefficient, so as to more accurately describe the flow state of the fluid in the control valve. Finally, based on these parameters, the flow coefficient of the control valve is accurately calculated. The method of the present invention is not only scientific and rigorous, but also highly practical, and provides strong support for the design and optimization of pseudoplastic power-law fluid control valves.

[0037] 2. The method of the present invention is applicable to the determination of the flow coefficient of the control valve whose medium is a pseudoplastic power-law fluid. The flow state of the medium can be laminar flow, transitional flow or turbulent flow, and the flow coefficient of various types and structural forms of control valves such as single-seat globe straight-through, angle type and Y-type structures, as well as gate valves, ball valves, plug valves, and butterfly valves can be determined. That is, it is not limited by the medium flow state, Reynolds number, viscosity, control valve type, structural form, nominal diameter, and nominal pressure.

[0038] 3. The Reynolds number calculation formulas for Newtonian fluids and non-Newtonian fluids are different. The Reynolds number calculation formula for pseudoplastic power-law fluids used in the present invention specifically considers the influence of rheological parameters of pseudoplastic power-law fluids such as consistency coefficient and flow index. The present invention determines the equivalent friction coefficient of the pseudoplastic power-law fluid control valve through the corresponding equation. The determination of the equivalent friction coefficient takes into account the type, structure, and size of the control valve, as well as the pseudoplastic fluid properties such as flow rate, density, viscosity, and Reynolds number, so as to determine the calculated pressure drop required for the flow coefficient of the pseudoplastic power-law fluid control valve, rather than directly using the upstream and downstream pressure difference of the control valve, thereby avoiding the distortion of the flow coefficient being too large due to the calculated pressure drop being less than the upstream and downstream pressure difference of the control valve due to failure to consider the blocked flow. For pseudoplastic power-law fluids such as polymer melts, their apparent viscosity is generally large, the Reynolds number is generally low, and the fluid flow state is generally laminar. In extreme cases, the flow rate is proportional to the calculated pressure drop of the control valve, rather than proportional to the square root of the calculated pressure drop of the control valve. Therefore, a Reynolds number correction coefficient based on pseudoplastic power-law fluid is introduced to ensure the calculation accuracy of the flow coefficient of the pseudoplastic power-law fluid control valve.

[0039] 4. The theoretical method for determining the flow coefficient of a pseudoplastic power-law fluid control valve proposed in the present invention is a program written according to the theoretical model. Only basic parameters need to be input to quickly obtain the flow coefficient of a pseudoplastic power-law fluid control valve. The calculation is simple, and the requirements for the completeness of basic data such as fluid physical parameters are not high. It has strong operability and is convenient for engineering control valve selection calculation. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
