Design and Analysis of Intelligent Dosage Equipment for Cement Additives Based on Fluent
Publication: International Conference on Road and Airfield Pavement Technology 2023
ABSTRACT
In order to ensure that the self-curing agent with small particle size and low dosage can be mixed evenly in cement, an intelligent metering equipment for cement admixture was designed by ANSYS-Fluent. Under the condition of ensuring specified mass ratio, simulate distribution of particles of the self-curing agent and cement medium in pipeline under different dosages, analyze the turbulent kinetic energy, pipeline velocity, and pipeline pressure of particles ejected from unified pipeline, and determine the relevant parameters of pipeline design. The results show that the maximum turbulent kinetic energy, the maximum flow velocity, and the maximum pressure of pipeline get best values when the self-curing agent is 0.1%, 0.2%, and 0.3% of cement mass. On this basis, the intelligent metering equipment can ensure that particles can be ejected smoothly without accumulation, so as to maximize the efficiency. It provides a data reference for subsequent use of intelligent metering equipment.
