Numerical simulation of the effect of jet small orifice structure on cavitation characteristic and jet impact flow field

The jet impingement -negative pressure deamination reactor (JI-NPDR) is a continuous, non -clogging, and efficient deamination equipment characterized by its simple structure. Research has demonstrated that the fluid passing through the jet orifices in the jet impact section of the reactor leads to partial cavitation. This situation directly impacts the flow characteristics before jet impact and the gas -liquid separation behavior in the negative pressure separation section. Therefore, this work proposes to utilize the CFD numerical simulation method to analyze the fluid cavitation evolution rules under the aspect ratio l/d structure of different jet orifices and to investigate the influence of orifice structure on the jet impact flow field. The results indicate that an increase in the liquid flow rate and the small orifice aspect ratio l/d promotes the conversion of pressure energy to kinetic energy, leading to an increase in cavitation intensity in the jet orifice. Furthermore, the evolution behavior of the jet impact flow field can be effectively controlled based on the l/d structural parameter of the small orifice aspect ratio. The research results can provide fundamental data support for the structural optimization design and engineering application of the JI-NPDR.
