  1. 11. Aeroelastic Analysis of a Morphing Wing for Airborne Wind Energy Applications

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Johannes Hall; [2017]
    Keywords : airborne wind energy; fluid structure interaction; gust wind modelling; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis is to set up a high-fidelity fluid structure interaction (FSI) simulation environment to study the gust load alleviation capability of camber-morphing airborne wind energy (AWE) wings. The simulation environment will enable studying the transient flow phenomena around the wing when encountering wind gusts and gives the possibility of investigating dynamic instabilities. READ MORE

  4. 13. Numerical Investigations of a Partitioned FSI Algorithm for Tetra Pak's Filling Tube

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Leo Andersson; [2016]
    Keywords : fluid-structure interaction; FSI; added mass effect; partitioned implicit scheme; stability; Rayleigh damping; grid flux under-relaxation; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Numerical simulations of fluid-structure interaction of a water-filled tube with a free surface are conducted using an implicit partitioned coupling scheme. Abaqus and STAR-CCM+ are used for the solid- and fluid domains respectively. This application has stability issues, with the most severe turning out to be the added mass effect. READ MORE

  5. 14. Feasibility Study of a 3D CFD Solution for FSI Investigations on NREL 5MW Wind Turbine Blade

    University essay from KTH/Kraft- och värmeteknologi

    Author : Giacomo Bernardi; [2015]
    Keywords : HAWT; CFD; Aeroelasticity;

    Abstract : With the increase in length of wind turbine blades flutter is becoming a potential design constrain, hence the interest in computational tools for fluid-structure interaction studies. The general approach to this problem makes use of simplified aerodynamic computational tools. READ MORE

  6. 15. Investigation of the Lock-in behavior of an eccentrically rotating cylinder in regard to turbomachinery application.

    University essay from KTH/Kraft- och värmeteknologi

    Author : Sina Samarbakhsh; [2014]
    Keywords : Non-synchronous vibration; Vortex-induced vibration; Oscillating cylinder; Vortex shedding; Fluid-structure interaction;

    Abstract : Interaction of fluctuating vortex shedding with blade vibration can lead to a new class of aeromechanical instability referred as Non-synchronous vibrations. Investigating a well-known case that shows similar NSV features such as a circular cylinder can develop the understanding of physics behind NSV. READ MORE
