ABSTRACT
The properties of the fluid is affected by temperature. The presence of a temperature difference changes the mode of motion of the fluid. The macroscopic motion of the fluid causes the relative displacement between the various parts of the fluid, which in turn affects the transfer of temperature in the medium. To investigate the effect of temperature transfer coupled fluid motion on chloride ion transport in concrete, a mesoscopic model of chloride ion transport in non-isothermal flow of concrete was established and compared with experimental data. At the same time, based on the finite element software COMSOL, the influence of temperature transfer on the internal fluid motion and chloride ion transport of concrete was analyzed. And the effect of convective motion of fluid on the temperature transfer in concrete was studied. It is found that when the heating time is the same, the dynamic viscosity of the fluid in the concrete decreases with the increase of temperature; the chloride ion concentration increases with the increase of temperature at the same depth of concrete, and the longitudinal transmission distance increases remarkably; when considering the influence of laminar flow, the temperature is transmitted faster in the concrete and exhibits uneven diffusion from high temperature to low temperature; non-isothermal flow promotes the diffusion of chloride ions in concrete, and the higher the temperature, the more obvious the influence of laminar flow on it.
