Sand media filters are especially recommended to prevent emitter clogging with loaded irrigation waters, but their performances rely on backwashing. Despite backwashing being a basic procedure needed to restore the initial filtration capacity, there is a lack of information about the solid removal efficiency along the media bed depth. An experimental filter with a 200 mm silica sand bed height was used to assess the effect of two operation velocities (30/45 and 60/75 (filtration/backwashing) m h−1) and two clogging particles (inorganic sand dust and organic from a reclaimed effluent) on the efficiency of backwashing for removing the total suspended solids retained in different media bed slices. The average solid removal backwashing efficiency was greater with organic particles (78%) than with inorganic ones (64%), reaching its maximum at a 5–15 mm bed depth. A higher operation velocity increased the solid removal efficiency by 16%, using organic particles, but no significant differences were observed with inorganic particles. The removal efficiencies across the media bed were more uniform with organic particles (63–89%) than with inorganic (40–85%), which makes it not advisable to reduce the media height when reclaimed effluents are used. This study may contribute to future improvements in sand media filter design and management.

AbstractRapid water filtration with pressurised porous media filters is extensively applied in drip irrigation systems. In double-chamber filters, the underdrains are fixed to the base of the inner plate to sustain the media above while draining water. Here, a new underdrain design intended to reduce the filter energy consumption is presented. The main difference with commercial underdrain units corresponds to the distribution of the slots, being in a horizontal plate to uniformise the flow trajectories inside the porous media. Both commercial and new underdrain designs have been tested in laboratory in both filtration and backwashing modes with three media types, two media heights, and superficial velocities ranging from 20 to 120 m h−1. In filtration mode, results indicate that the new design reduces the filter pressure drop by 31% at 60 m h−1 in comparison with the commercial one. The exploration with an analytical model that correctly reproduces the filter pressure drop, reveals that its value at 60 m h−1 is only 15% higher than the ideal scenario (uniform flow throughout the porous media bed). In backwashing mode, the pressure drop in comparison with the commercial design is reduced by 65% at 80 m h−1, while having the same trend for the bed expansion, which is also predicted by a simple analytical expression. Thus, the new underdrain design produces a more homogeneous fluidised regime than the commercial one at low-moderate superficial velocities.

Akademia Baru Publishing
A pump as turbine (PAT) is a turbomachine that converts hydraulic energy into electricity. One of the study topics in PAT is the efficiency due to centrifugal pumps are not designed to operate in reverse mode. Geometric variations of the impeller have been studied in the literature. However, it was not possible to evidence the influence of the inclination of the blade leading and trailing edge. Therefore, the objective of this work is to analyze numerically and fluid dynamically the inclination angle of the blade leading and trailing edge of a centrifugal pump, in pump and turbine mode. First, the characteristic curve was validated. Then, the inclination of the leading and the trailing edge was modified, in a range of 25° to 90°, obtaining head, efficiency, and power graph. As a result, in pump mode was evidenced that an angle close to 90° on the blade trailing edge provides a higher efficiency of 50.26% and decreases until 40.77% when the angle approaches 30°, reducing the head to around 20%, while power remained constant. In turbine mode, an inverse effect was obtained, where the maximum efficiency was 60.9% and the generated power increased up to 4.76 kW in the blade leading edge. Therefore, the angular variation of the leading and the trailing edge is adequate in turbine mode, while in pump mode there is a loss of capacity.

Universidad de Antioquia
Vertical axis wind turbines such as Darrieus turbines are a very interesting category of low wind speed domestic wind turbines. Further research work is needed to enhance their efficiency to fulfill the higher demand in small applications for power generation. The main objective of this work is to find a Darrieus turbine design to boost the starting capacity of the turbine through an opening located at the lower surface of the airfoil. We carried out a thorough CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) investigation to determine the impact of the opening position on the Darrieus rotor's output. This new type of airfoil uses a standard NACA 0015 profile and a profile with an opening on the lower surface of the profile. Different sizes of the opening in a symmetrical profile are evaluated through the CFD method to predict the Cp and CT of this H-Darrieus turbine design. Five sections were designed to describe the research of this new H-Darrieus rotor. Generally speaking, the results showed that the Cp decreases with the opening ratio, the desirable rotors with the lower surface opening ratio are 0.12 to 0.36 considering this with the low CpLP.

Penerbit UTHM
The design and manufacture of new systems for providing electric power to non-interconnected areas are challenges for engineering. There are several alternatives, including water or wind-power generation systems, where hydrokinetic turbines are highlighted. This work establishes the methodology, identification, and correction of errors generated during the manufacture by machining, using CAD/CAPP/CAM techniques, for an axial hydrokinetic turbine. During the manufacturing process, the generation of an error on the edges of the blades was identified, which was attributed to problems in the design of the model since the degrees of freedom of the manufacturing system used were not considered. For the manufacture of complex surfaces in the design of models, the most extreme points of the surfaces in contact must match the tangent edges to ensure that machining tools can reach them with the trajectories generated from the CAM.


Characterization of a Commercial Axial Flow PAT Through a Structured Methodology Step-by-Step
Diego Penagos-Vásquez, Jonathan Graciano-Uribe, and Edward Torres
Akademia Baru Publishing
A centrifugal pump as a turbine (PAT) is the inverse operation of a conventional pump, which takes advantage of the hydraulic energy of water to convert it into rotational mechanical energy and subsequently into electrical energy, through a generator. The CFD analysis allows predicting the fluid dynamic behavior and calculating the operating characteristic curve of the PAT, thus reducing costs in experimental setups. In the literature, the operation of the turbomachine in pump and turbine mode is evidenced. However, there is no methodology applied in commercial axial flow pumps that exposes a structured step-by-step to carry out the numerical and fluid dynamic analysis. In this study, a novel structured methodology is developed describing the numerical and CFD analysis of a commercial axial flow centrifugal pump, which allows validating the characteristic curve in pump mode and then obtaining the site conditions in turbine mode, for its application in small hydroelectric power plants. As a result, in pump mode, an error of less than 8% is obtained between the manufacturer's curve and the numerical curve. In turbine mode, the best performance is around 73%. The aim is to propose a replicable algorithm in future works that allows the proper analysis in commercial axial flow pumps.


Assessment of different pressure drop-flow rate equations in a pressurized porous media filter for irrigation systems

MDPI AG
The small open area available at the slots of underdrains in pressurized granular bed filters for drip irrigation implies: (1) the existence of a region with non-uniform flow, and (2) local values of modified particle Reynolds number >500. These flow conditions may disagree with those accepted as valid for common pressure drop-flow rate correlations proposed for packed beds. Here, we carried out detailed computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations of a laboratory filter to analyze the results obtained with five different equations of head losses in porous media: (1) Ergun, (2) Darcy-Forchheimer, (3) Darcy, (4) Kozeny-Carman and (5) power function. Simulations were compared with experimental data at different superficial velocities obtained from previous studies. Results for two silica sand media indicated that all equations predicted total filter pressure drop values within the experimental uncertainty range when superficial velocities <38.3 m h−1. At higher flow rates, Ergun equation approximated the best to the observed results for silica sand media, being the expression recommended. A simple analytical model of the pressure drop along flow streamlines that matched CFD simulation results was developed.

Akademia Baru Publishing
In this work, a 76 mm diameter propeller-type turbine is numerically investigated using a parametric study and computational fluid dynamics. The three-dimensional model of the turbine is modeled using data available in the bibliography. A mesh independence study is carried out utilizing a tetrahedron-based mesh with inflation layers around the turbine blade and the pipe wall. The best efficiency point is determined by the maximum hydraulic efficiency of 64.46 %, at a flow rate of 9.72x10-3 m3/s , a head drop of 1.76 m, and a mechanical power of 107.83 W. Additionally, the dimensionless distance y+, pressure, and velocity contours are shown.

International Digital Organization for Scientific Information (IDOSI)
In the last thirty years, the friction stirs welding (FSW) process has achieved significant importance due to the satisfactory results derived from severe deformation and low heat input during the welded joint production. These elements have been considered to implement the FSW in different welded systems, including aluminum-steel joints. In these dissimilar joints, the main interest was to obtain a welded joint with acceptable mechanical behavior. Some papers recently focused on understanding dissimilar joints process, mainly on the metal flow and its response to corrosion. However, in Al-steel joints, the presence of steel particles in the nugget zone is routine, alters both the welded joint's mechanical and chemical behavior. Thus, this work aims to evaluate the mechanisms that govern these particles' generation, the effect of offset on their formation, and estimating the characteristics of the material flow, using the detached fragments as tracers. It was established that the offset controls the metal's fluidity, which allows the accumulation of steel fragments on the advanced side, in addition to reducing its quantity, due to the decrease of irregularities in the Al-steel interface. Likewise, the metal flow was observed on the retreating side, with that mentioned on aluminum joints. In contrast, on the advanced side, there is a shear action, push down, and lateral movement towards the retreating side, driven by the high forging strength of the metal and the restriction imposed by the steel and the backing.


Characteristic Curve Prediction of a Commercial Centrifugal Pump Operating as a Turbine Through Numerical Simulations

Akademia Baru Publishing
In this work, we seek to predict the characteristic curve of a commercial centrifugal radial flow pump operating as a turbine, applying a novel methodology based on the state of the art. Initially, the characteristic curve in pump mode is validated through numerical simulations. The results obtained are approximate to the points awarded by the manufacturer, with an error of less than 7% at the best efficiency point. Subsequently, the characteristic curve is generated in turbine mode, obtaining an error of less than 10% respect to mathematical model. Then, velocity and pressure contours are evaluated to validate the fluid dynamic behavior. Finally, the site operating conditions for electricity generation are obtained. With this, it is proposing a methodology for the selection of these turbomachines, applying an economic technology for zones that do not have access to the electrical energy, since it was not found a method that is being applied for its correct election in the hydroelectric generation at low scale.

Jonathan Graciano-Uribe, Jorge Sierra, and Edwar Torres-Lopez
SDEWES Centre
Compared to a traditional turbine (Kaplan, Francis, Pelton), pumps operated as turbine are a good alternative for micro hydroelectric power plants thanks to their low cost and easy availability. This paper presents a review of the most challenging aspects of the pump as turbine: prediction and improvement in turbine mode. First, an explanation of the theory of the pump as turbine focused on the functioning, types of pumps, selection criteria and performance predictions as shown in the literature, giving also methodologies and details on the pump as turbine selection. Afterwards, the literature shows the instabilities produced by the operation of the pumps on inverse mode, which generates S-shape curves and cavitation. Finally, as the main focus of this paper, aspects of efficiency produced by geometric parameters were discussed. Current trends and future scope for further improvement and implementation of pump as turbine are also discussed.

Thanks to the fact that nowadays substantial progress has been made in new ways of analyzing our environment using image processing techniques, it is imperative to highlight the importance of applying this methodology to mechanisms, which are our object of study and these elements are present in various sectors, such as industrial, automotive, academic, etc. In the previously mentioned sectors, the mechanisms are a fundamental element for the correct operation of the devices that each sector has. Therefore, knowing the dynamic behavior of the mechanisms is an essential task, since, if any type of failure occurs, it could cause damage to an entire process. The article proposes to develop a methodology that allows the analysis of dynamic variables in different types of mechanisms, through the use of image processing techniques specifically the detection, filtering and tracking of objects, using filters such as the Gaussian filter and background subtraction in order to improve the quality of the information to be analyzed. The results obtained through the application of the proposed methodology were compared with a simulation of a CAD/CAM/CAE software, in this case Siemens NX 12®, these results were satisfactory under certain criteria that will be exposed in the analysis section, thanks to this it can be affirmed that the proposed methodology is acceptable at the time of knowing the dynamic variables in mechanisms


Segregation effect on solidification cracking in spot welding of the 6xxx aluminum
Andrés Ramírez, J. Graciano-Uribe, Diego Hincapie Zuluga and Edwar Torrez Lopez

Solidification cracking is a critical phenomenon, especially in the welding of AA6XXX, due these alloys present a wider freezing temperature range. The amount of liquid at the end of the solidification is a dominant factor in promoting or reducing the number of cracks. This paper proposes to assess the effect of the heat input in controlling the cracking during the spot welding in AA6061-T6. Four deposit conditions, made with GTAW, were assessed, in which the cracking degree was quantified and compared with the resulting microstructure. This work confirms and explains why the heat input governs the constitutional cooling, which simultaneously controls the microsegregation amount. With low heat input, the segregation is interdendritic, and the eutectic liquid gathers within the grains, which reduces the cracking susceptibility. A high heat input promotes the higher accumulation of eutectic liquid at the grain boundaries, facilitating cracks’ formation and growth. A high concentration of eutectic liquid promotes the healing effect, reducing the formation of cracks.

Faculty of Engineering, Chulalongkorn University
Weldability of aluminum-steel joints has been studied mainly to avoid the formation of IMC. Nowadays, there are two ways to control the effect of FexAly in welding: 1) the elimination of IMCs or 2) the generation of a thin and homogeneous layer of these phases. In this way, the present work explores the first route, manufacturing joints aluminum-steel using solid state welding process. In order to evaluate the effect of the welding parameters, temperature measures were carried out during the process as well as the microstructural evaluation using optical microscopy and SEM. Finally, the welded joints were subject to tensile strength tests to evaluate their mechanical behavior and try to stablish the nature of the interfacial bonding between both metals. The microstructural characterization of the joints does not reveal the formation of IMCs; this is attributed to the low temperature reached during the process, lower than 545 °C. The welded joint failures in the TMAZ, in the low hardness zone, product of the over aging of the precipitates β”. The nature of the bonding in the interface is not clear yet, but it is considered that the atomic diffusion trough the interface and adhesive bonding favors the joint.

The elimination of the FexAly type phases was considered the solution to low ductility presented in aluminum-steel welded joints. Recently, the researches do not seek the suppression but the control of the thickness of these compounds. In this work, Al-Fe joints were manufactured by solid state and fusion welding, looking for controlling the formation of intermetallic compounds. Temperature measurements were carried out during the welding. The joints interface was characterized using optical and scanning electronic microscopy, aided by chemical composition measures with X-EDS. The microstructural characterization at the interface of aluminum-steel joints, in solid state welded joints, demonstrated the absence of intermetallic compounds, which is attributed to the low temperature reached during the process - less than 300 ° C. In the case of fusion joints, it has observed the permanent formation of intermetallic compounds whose thickness varies significantly with the heat input.
