    Progress in numerical simulation of power ultrasound in metallurgy

    • 摘要: 功率超聲憑借獨特的物理化學作用,在濕法與火法冶金過程強化中展現出顯著優勢. 其作用機理主要包括空化效應、聲流效應及聲化學反應,這些作用不僅能有效改善液固界面的傳質行為、加快反應速率,還可在高溫熔體中促進夾雜物的遷移去除、細化凝固組織,從而優化金屬的綜合性能. 近年來,隨著計算流體力學、多物理場耦合建模以及高性能計算技術的發展,數值模擬已成為揭示功率超聲在冶金體系中作用規律的重要手段. 本文圍繞濕法與火法冶金兩個典型領域,系統綜述了功率超聲在傳質強化、夾雜物凈化及晶粒細化等方面的數值模擬研究進展. 濕法冶金方面,模擬結果表明超聲輻照可在液相中形成高強度空化區與穩定聲流結構,顯著降低擴散阻力、提升金屬浸出率,并在電沉積過程中改善成核行為與鍍層均勻性. 火法冶金中,功率超聲通過改變鋼液流場結構,縮短均混時間并提高夾雜物去除效率,同時在金屬凝固階段產生均勻的溫度場與溶質場,抑制粗大枝晶的生成,實現組織細化與性能提升. 結合有限元、有限體積及多尺度耦合等數值方法,研究者已能夠對聲場分布、空化強度演化及流固熱耦合特征進行定量分析,并在多種超聲參數與反應器構型下進行優化設計. 綜上,功率超聲數值模擬不僅為揭示冶金外場強化機理提供了可視化和定量化依據,也為工業化工藝優化與放大設計提供了理論支撐與參數指導. 未來,需進一步加強模擬與實驗的耦合驗證,發展跨尺度、多場協同的高精度模型,探索復雜工業環境下的聲場調控策略,以推動功率超聲在綠色高效冶金體系中的規模化應用.

       

      Abstract: High-power ultrasound, owing to its unique combination of physical and chemical effects, has emerged as a powerful tool for enhancing both hydrometallurgical and pyrometallurgical processes. The primary mechanisms for such enhancement involve acoustic cavitation, acoustic streaming, and chemical reactions. Collectively, these factors improve mass transfer at liquid–solid interfaces and increase reaction rates, facilitate the migration and removal of inclusions in high-temperature molten systems, and promote the refinement of solidification microstructures, thereby enhancing the overall performance of metallic products. Of late, the advancement of computational fluid dynamics (CFD), multiphysics coupling modeling techniques, and high-performance computing techniques has positioned numerical simulation as a crucial method for elucidating the complex interaction mechanisms of high-power ultrasound in metallurgical systems. This paper presents a comprehensive review of the latest progress made in the field of numerical simulation of high-power ultrasound, focusing on two representative domains: hydrometallurgy and pyrometallurgy. In hydrometallurgical applications, the simulations indicate that ultrasonic irradiation produces localized high-intensity cavitation regions coupled with stable acoustic streaming structures in the liquid phase. These hydrodynamic phenomena significantly reduce diffusion resistance, enhance metal leaching efficiency, and improve nucleation behavior, thereby enabling more uniform coating during electrodeposition. Furthermore, the simulation results suggest that ultrasound can be used to precisely regulate flow patterns within the leaching and plating reactors, affording optimized reaction kinetics and improved product quality. In pyrometallurgical processes, the numerical models show that high-power ultrasound modifies the molten metal flow field, shortens homogenization time, and increases the inclusion removal efficiency. During the solidification stage, ultrasound generates a more uniform temperature and solute distribution, suppresses the formation of coarse dendritic structures, and promotes the formation of finer, more homogeneous grain morphologies, which directly contribute to superior mechanical and service properties. The combined effects of ultrasonic agitation and thermosolutal field uniformity have been quantitatively described using advanced simulation methods, enabling precise prediction of microstructural evolution under various operating conditions. From a methodological perspective, the integration of finite element methods (FEM), finite volume methods (FVM), and multiscale coupling strategies has enabled the quantitative evaluation of spatial acoustic pressure distributions, temporal cavitation intensity evolution, and thermo–fluid–solid coupled interactions in both laboratory-scale and industrial-scale systems. By systematically varying ultrasonic parameters—such as frequency, power density, transducer arrangement, and immersion depth—along with reactor geometry, the simulations provide actionable insights for optimizing acoustic field uniformity, minimizing energy dissipation, and tailoring reactor configurations to the specific demands of metallurgical processes. Such modeling frameworks facilitate the design of high-efficiency ultrasonic reactors and offer predictive capabilities that significantly reduce the costs of industrial process development by trial-and-error. Overall, numerical simulation of high-power ultrasound serves as both a visualization tool and a quantitative analytical framework for elucidating metallurgical field-enhancement mechanisms. The knowledge obtained from the simulation studies lays the foundation for process optimization, energy efficiency improvement, and industrial scale-up design. This knowledge also provides valuable parameter guidance and engineering strategies for the successful integration of ultrasonic technology into green, high-performance metallurgical systems. Future research must focus on closer integration of simulation and experimental validation, the development of high-fidelity, cross-scale, multi-field collaborative models, and the study of robust acoustic field control strategies in complex and variable industrial environments. These advancements should accelerate the large-scale application of high-power ultrasound in sustainable metallurgy, contributing to the development of traditional metallurgical processes towards processes with higher efficiency, lower environmental impact, and stronger competitive advantage.
