Popis: | In this paper, a full three dimensional FLUENT numerical model of the electrostatic coating process with the embedded moving mesh capability and piecewise linear type target motion is presented. The model includes target geometries that do not exhibit symmetry. All the dominant mechanical and electrical phenomena are taken into account. Mechanical phenomena include shaping air effects, downdraft effects and the motion of the polydispersed particles. Electrical phenomena include the particle space charge distribution, corona discharge and the electrohydrodynamic flow effects. It was demonstrated that the numerical model can accurately mimic the type of the motion used in real world applications. |
