  1. 1. Development of HVAC simulations for truck cabins using OpenFOAM

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Mekanisk värmeteori och strömningslära

    Author : Junaid Haider; [2023]
    Keywords : Computational Fluid Dynamics; OpenFOAM; Conjugate Heat Transfer; chtMultiRegionFoam;

    Abstract : In regions with cold climates, a layer of ice often forms on vehicle windshields, whichobstructs the driver’s view. To address this issue, vehicles are equipped with internal defrosters. However, at Scania, the evaluation of defroster design performancecurrently relies on time-consuming and costly physical testing. READ MORE

  3. 2. CFD Analysis of Engine Room Temperature : CFD Analysis of Engine Room Temperature: Case study The Grange Castle Power Plant Project

    University essay from Högskolan i Gävle/Avdelningen för byggnadsteknik, energisystem och miljövetenskap

    Author : William Wanli; [2023]
    Keywords : CFD Computational Fluid Dynamics; ventilation system; temperature; airflow; engine room.;

    Abstract : Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) has emerged as an indispensable tool in various engineering fields, particularly in the design and optimization of HVAC systems in complex environments, such as engine rooms. This paper presents a comprehensive overview of CFD applications and focuses on the engine rooms of the Grange Castle Power Plant in Dublin, Ireland. READ MORE

  4. 3. Development of CFD method to model thermal properties of laminates in a truck cab : Modeling solids and HVAC performance

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Mekanisk värmeteori och strömningslära

    Author : Aniruddh Mohan; [2022]
    Keywords : CFD; Conjugate heat transfer; HVAC; Shell modeling;

    Abstract : The study of Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) system performance is important to understand its energy consumption, especially for electric vehicles. The purpose of this thesis is to develop a methodology to simulate the flow within the Scania S20H cab while also capturing the thermal properties of the fluid and solids within the cab. READ MORE

  5. 4. Multi-scale modelling of fire in accelerator tunnels: a CERN case study

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Author : Melchior Schepers; [2018]
    Keywords : Multi-scale modelling; CFD; tunnel fires; FDS; CERN; particle accelerator; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Multi-scale modellering is een nieuwe benadering in het modelleren van rook en brand in systemen waarbij de grootte van het domein een meer conventionele volledige 3D modellering onmogelijk maakt. Het domein wordt opgesplitst in een 1D en 3D gedeelte om zo de simulatietijd te verminderen. READ MORE

  6. 5. Performance analysis and validation of high-temperature cooling panels in passive geothermal system

    University essay from KTH/Hållbara byggnader

    Author : Carlos JImenez Lopez; [2018]
    Keywords : Heat Transfer; High Temperature Cooling; Cooling Radiant Ceiling Panels; Computational Fluid Dynamics; HVAC Systems; Cooling Capacity.;

    Abstract : High Temperature Cooling, HTC, is a thermal conditioning strategy, which aims to reducemixing and transfer heat losses. Cooling capacity strongly depends on heat transfer coefficientsand offers a great response and several advantages in terms of efficiency and sustainability. READ MORE
