Description
New solver (InterSolidFoam) development
Combing the interDyMFoam and the driftFluxFoam, interSolidFoam is developed
within the framework OpenFOAM to investigate the effect of activated sludge on
bubble dynamics.
OpenFOAM simulations
Simulations are performed to quantify the hydrodynamic characteristics in MBRs
( the flat sheet membrane module), i.e. shear stress on the membrane surfaces
under different operational and constructional conditions. The critical
parameters are bubble size, liquid velocity, membrane channel distance, and
activated sludge concentration. They are investigated both for single bubbles
and bubble swarms in the membrane channel numerically. Besides, simulations on
air flow rate, aerator geometry, aerator position and aeration intensity are
performed.
