21. Design Optimization of Savonius Wind Turbine using CFD Simulations
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för elektroteknikAbstract : This thesis is based on a simulation of the Savonius wind turbine. The Savoniusturbine is a simple vertical axis device, which has half cylindrical blades attached to the main shaft opposite to each other which creates the drag force from incoming wind and generates mechanical torque which drives the generator for electricity generation.

22. Improving Water Droplet Prediction for Vehicle Exterior Water Management: Insights from Experimental and Simulation Studies
University essay from KTH/Väg- och spårfordon samt konceptuell fordonsdesignAbstract : This thesis focuses on the study of water transportation on vehicle surfaces, which is crucial for ensuring the unobstructed operation of sensors and cameras in autonomous vehicles. The research aims to develop and validate experimental and simulation methods to enhance the understanding of water droplet behaviour and to create accurate models for computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations.

23. CFD investigation of a unit cell inside a Plate Heat Exchanger
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaperAbstract : A numerical investigation of the unit cell approach has been done to reduce the computational cost for CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) of plate heat exchangers (PHE) at Alfa Laval. The reduced cost would enable LES (Large Eddy Simulation) to be done which would give a more detailed and accurate insight into the flow and heat transfer processes of the PHE. READ MORE

24. Design of Experiment Based on Full Factorial CFD Spray Modelling
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaperAbstract : Design of experiment is a powerful tool that can reduce the amount of physical testing needed to save resources, time and money. A CFD-setup was constructed in OpenFOAM-8, simulating injection of liquid propane with a standard multi-hole injector. The model was then validated against experimental results. READ MORE

25. MODELLING OF HEAT TRANSFER OF RAILWAY SWITCH HEATING
University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)Abstract : Switches and crossings are vital components of the railway network. Obstacles to the smooth functioning of these components could result in delays and network traffic. Given the geographical location of Sweden, snow is one of the major obstacles for the switches.
