Critical penetrating vibration evolution behaviors of the gas-liquid coupled vortex flow

The gas-liquid coupled vortex flow (GCVF), as a complex physical phenomenon, has been encountered in some sustainable productions, such as chemical cleaner production, continuous steel pouring processes, and energy conversion in the tidal power plant. Its critical penetrating state recognition is essential to improve sustainable production efficiency and equipment lifetime. Due to the gas-liquid coupling transport and fluid nonlinear excitation, the state recognition oriented to the GCVF critical penetrating still faces significant challenges. To address the above matter, a fluid-structure coupling modeling and solution method based on the level set and residue theorems is put forward to obtain the GCVF-induced vibration evolution mechanism at the critical penetrating state. A wavelet packet-based signal processing method is proposed to obtain the evolution law of the peak component of the GCVF-induced vibration. Research results found that the proposed modeling and method can better reveal the GCVF dynamic evolution regularities in the critical penetrating state. The GCVF-induced vibration exhibits energy peak and complex nonlinear pulse characteristics in the critical penetrating process. The relevant research work can provide multi-source sensing data support for the research and development of a fluid-induced vibration detection system, laying the foundation for sustainable metallurgy production, chemical cleaner extraction, and hydroelectric energy conversion.
