In this study, a modified Pinto-Espinoza (P-E) magnetization model that has a wider range of applications is proposed based on the conventional magnetization model. This model uses the relative reference frame conversion method to determine the magnetization force experienced by ferromagnetic particles when magnetic fields are applied in any direction. The accuracy of the improved P-E magnetization model is confirmed on the basis of this, and a coupled simulation environment between the discrete element method (DEM) and the finite volume method (FVM) is constructed. Simulated is the motion of ferromagnetic particles under various magnetic field directions and magnetic induction intensities. The particle distribution, particle velocity vector, and particle total energy change were all investigated. It is inferred that the chain formation direction of ferromagnetic particles in the magnetic field is consistent with the magnetic field direction, and they attract each other along the magnetic field direction and repel each other along the vertical magnetic field direction. Changing the intensity of the magnetic induction can effectively ease the particle delamination phenomenon. The faster the chain formation speed increases with increasing magnetic induction intensity, the shorter the time necessary to attain a stable condition.

In order to improve the separation efficiency of the large scale industrial cyclone separation filter, a new cyclone separator is designed which combines the principle of inertia separation and centrifugal separation. Based on the theory of particle dynamics, a two fluid model is established, which is used to numerically simulate the gassolid flow characteristics in the cyclone separator. The variation law of fluid velocity, particle trajectory and other parameters is analyzed. The results show that the separation efficiency of the new cyclone separator is improved compared with the traditional cyclone separator.

Nanofluids have attracted more and more concerns own their excellent heat transfer performance in comparison with conventional fluids. In this paper, a reverse non equilibrium molecular dynamics method is presented to analyze the enhanced thermal properties of CuAr nanofluids. It is found that the thermal conductivity of CuAr nanofluids is sensitive to particle size and volume fraction. Meanwhile, the micro-mechanism of the enhancement of thermal conductivity of CuAr nanofluids is analyzed. The results reveal that the nanofluids have some similar microstructure characteristics as crystals. The nanoparticles are more likely to adsorb liquid molecules influenced by the solid-liquid interactions.
Compared with conventional fluids such as water and ethylene glycol, the excellent heat transfer effect of nanofluids has made it one of the hotspots of research in the past decade. In this paper, the heat conduction enhancement mechanism of nanofluids is simulated by a reverse non equilibrium molecular dynamics method. The heat flux density and thermal conductivity of nanofluids change with the addition of Cu nanoparticles in Ar, and the volume fraction of nanoparticles changes the energy transfer process in nanofluids to a certain extent. Furthermore, the microscopic mechanism of the enhancement of thermal conductivity of nanofluids is analyzed. It was found that the addition of nanoparticles made the microstructure of nanofluids similar to that of crystals. Under the condition of smaller particle size, the effect of temperature gradient on the fluid is obvious.
