The research of the simulation of siphon and the siphon flow control

Hao Tao

Abstract

The siphon principle is used widely in engineering.In this paper the dynamics of the two-dimensional flow in siphon pipe,such as the flow regimes,velocity field and pressure field in the flow pipe,was investigated using a computa-tional fluid dynamics(CFD) model.The effect of the length of outlet pipe was analyzed.The flow regimes can be controlled by the modification of the length of outlet pipe.
