Experimental and numerical investigation of a small scale storm sewer geyser
The violent nature of storm sewer geysers has been puzzling researchers worldwide for a very long time. This paper investigates the geyser simulation methodology using a small-scale set-up, where important flow structures such as slugs, eruption patterns, and pressure oscillations are compared with experimental results to test the fidelity of the numerical modelling. In this exercise, a geyser-like process is produced using a continuous insertion of air in the horizontal pipe. The established methodology is used to simulate the hypothesized scenario of a finite trapped air pocket in the relatively longer pipe system. A geyser produced from a finitely trapped air pocket shows a different eruption mechanism compared to those found in previous studies. First, no slug is observed in the horizontal pipe, resulting in continuous air release. Second, the interface continuously atomizes in the vertical pipe, creating a churn-slug flow that produces a large number of small eruptions.
