Summary

Recently, in the chemical, metal and environmental industries, equipment to separate and classify nano-size particles are required in order to nanomize material particles, collect microscopic particles and purify wastewater. The objective of the study, described in this paper, is the development of a new solid-liquid separator, which enables the separation and classification of nano-size particles, to cut down the water content ratio of disposed particles and to accomplish extremely high collection efficiency by using centrifugal force and differences in specific gravity. In this paper, the development of a numerical method to simulate the gas-liquid-solid three-phase flow, based on the moving particle semi-implicit (MPS) approach. Some numerical tests were conducted with liquid single-phase, gas-liquid two-phase, gas-liquid-solid three-phase simulations. These include dam break phenomenon with liquid single-phase and gas-liquid two-phase simulations and air-bubble engulfmentphenomenon with the gas-liquid-solid three-phase simulation. In the dam break simulations, two computational results indicated reasonable agreement with the experimental results. In the air-bubble engulfment simulation, our numerical method reproduced some interactions of the three phases that are difficult to be duplicated with the traditional grid methods
