Resumo: | The cropping season of 2007/2008 was one of the highest in the history of Brazil, in which were produced around 143.87 millions of tons, emphasizing corn and soybeans which corresponds approximately 84 % of this total. Aeration process aims to maintain the initial quality of the grain during storage, with the goal to keep the temperature of the grain at low levels, inhibiting the plague development. However, in tropical or subtropical sites, is difficult to successfully use aeration with the air temperature, being necessary to cool the air in order to proceed to the aeration process. In this context, the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is an important technique to predict, manipulate and study the cooling processes in grain storage systems. Being that stated, the objective of this work was to model the cooling process of stored bulk grains utilizing the CFD technique applied to porous media. An advection-diffusion transient one-dimensional case with a known analytical solution was simulated. The simulations were made varying the Péclet number (Pe), with the goal to verify if the program ANSYS CFX sp1 possesses any limitations regarding the solution of this kind of issues. The second case was a study of the air flow in a fixed porous bed, considering the porosity variation due to the grains compaction, in which the experimental measurements accomplished by Devilla et al. (2005) were compared with the obtained results provided by the simulations. The third studied case was a problem of soybeans cooling in a fixed bed, validated by experimental data. Concerning the first case, it was observed that lowest values of Pe led to higher scalar gradient between the entrance and exit of the column (predominance of the diffusive term). It was also observed that for high values of Pe, a downscaling of the mesh must be made to minimize the effect of false diffusion. Nonetheless, the software did not present any limitations that would not allow the analysis of the advective-diffusive problems. The obtained results through the proposed model on the second case presented a good fit in relation to the experimental data. The associated relative error is low (6.86 %) and the difference in relation to the experimental data can be explained due to the fact that the axial and radial porosity variation was not considered due to the fine accumulation. The proposed model is valid and allows the simulation of air flow systems in silos. The results of the third case demonstrate the good concordance among the experimental results, confirming the proposed model validity. Thus, it was concluded that the proposed thermo fluid dynamic model in porous media to cooling is valid and can be used in another studies of grain cooling systems. |

Foram produzidos em torno de 143,87 milhões de toneladas, com destaques para o milho e soja, que respondem por aproximadamente 84% desse total. A aeração é feita com o objetivo de manter a qualidade inicial dos grãos durante o período de armazenamento, conservando a temperatura dos grãos baixa e inibindo o desenvolvimento de pragas. Entretanto, em locais de clima tropical ou subtropical, muitas vezes, é difícil executar a aeração com ar ambiente com sucesso, sendo necessário resfriar o ar para efetuá-la. Nesse contexto, a mecânica dos fluidos computacional (CFD) surge como técnica importante para predição, manipulação e estudo dos processos de resfriamento em sistemas de armazenamento de grãos. Assim, objetivou-se com este trabalho modelar o processo de resfriamento de grãos armazenados a granelutilizando a técnica de CFD aplicada a meios porosos. Foi modelado um caso advectivo-difusivo unidimensional, em regime transiente, com solução analítica conhecida. As simulações foram xiv realizadas variando-se o número de Péclet (Pe), com o objetivo de averiguar se o programa ANSYS CFX sp1 possui alguma limitação para a solução de problemas desse tipo. O segundo caso foi um estudo do escoamento de ar em um leito fixo poroso, considerando-se a variação da porosidade axial devido à compactação dos grãos, em que as medidas experimentais de Devilla et al. (2005) foram comparadas com os resultados obtidos nas simulações. O terceiro caso estudado foi um problema deresfriamento de grãos de soja em um leito fixo, validado com dados experimentais. No primeiro caso, verificou-se que, quanto menor o valor de Pe, maior o gradiente do escalar entre a entrada e saída da coluna (predomínio do termo difusivo). Observou-se, ainda, que para elevados valores de Pe um refinamento de malha deve ser efetuado para minimizar o efeito da falsa difusão. Entretanto, o programa computacional não apresentou limitações que impeçam a análise de problemas adivectivo-difusivos. Os resultados obtidos pelo modelo proposto no segundo caso apresentam bom ajuste em relação aos resultados experimentais. O erro relativo associado foi baixo (6,86%), e a diferença em relação aos dados experimentais pode ser explicada pelo fato de que neste trabalho não foi considerada a variação da porosidade axial e radial pelo acúmulo de partículas finas. O modelo proposto é válido e possibilita a simulação de sistemas de escoamento de ar em silos armazenadores de grãos. Os resultados do terceiro caso indicam a boa concordância entre os dados experimentais, confirmando a validade do modelo proposto. Desse modo, conclui-se que o modelo termofluidodinâmico em meios porosos proposto para o resfriamento é válido e pode ser utilizado em outros estudos de sistemas de resfriamento de grãos.Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológicoapplication/pdfporUniversidade Federal de ViçosaMestrado em Engenharia AgrícolaUFVBRConstruções rurais e ambiência; Energia na agricultura; Mecanização agrícola; Processamento de produEscoamento em meios porososResfriamento de grãosVolumes finitosFlow in porous mediaCooling grainFinite volumeCNPQ::CIENCIAS AGRARIAS::ENGENHARIA AGRICOLASimulação do processo de resfriamento de grãos usando a mecânica dos fluidos computacionalSimulation of cooling process of grain using the computational fluid mechanicsinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:LOCUS Repositório Institucional da UFVinstname:Universidade Federal de Viçosa (UFV)instacron:UFVORIGINALtexto completo.pdfapplication/pdf1368649https://locus.ufv.br//bitstream/123456789/3548/1/texto%20completo.pdf2be7bf9becd4cf87a8dabf31f2ee8822MD51TEXTtexto completo.pdf.txttexto completo.pdf.txtExtracted texttext/plain92820https://locus.ufv.br//bitstream/123456789/3548/2/texto%20completo.pdf.txtb53deda1e739d08136080e613fa8fd67MD52THUMBNAILtexto completo.pdf.jpgtexto completo.pdf.jpgIM Thumbnailimage/jpeg3647https://locus.ufv.br//bitstream/123456789/3548/3/texto%20completo.pdf.jpg21cf03f2586f2f707ff075e897e321bbMD53123456789/35482016-04-08 23:21:03.973oai:locus.ufv.br:123456789/3548Repositório InstitucionalPUBhttps://www.locus.ufv.br/oai/requestfabiojreis@ufv.bropendoar:21452016-04-09T02:21:03LOCUS Repositório Institucional da UFV - Universidade Federal de Viçosa (UFV)false |
