  1. 41. Forced response numerical investigation of a transonic compressor rotor

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Mariana Pires Gonçalves Toco Dias; [2023]
    Keywords : Compressor; rotor; blisk; aeroelasticity; aerodynamic damping; CFD; transient; forced response;

    Abstract : The present thesis discusses the forced response of a rotor’s bladed-disk when excited by the periodic force produced by a wake generator, or Inlet Guide Vane (IGV),with 8 equally-spaced blades. These components are part of an axial transonic compressor rig, moreover the Transonic Compressor Darmstadt 1 (TCD1), located at the Technical University of Darmstadt. READ MORE

  3. 42. 3D CFD Simulations of Hydrogen Engine Combustion

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Hao Liu; [2023]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : With the trend of decarbonization, the transport sector is exploring possibilities of fossil fuel free solutions. Hydrogen can be a potential fuel for future engine applications. In this work, the concept of H2 HPDI is investigated, where a pilot diesel injection ignites the hydrogen jet. READ MORE

  4. 43. Early Stage Design of a Prefilmer at Siemens Energy : Numerical and Experimental Methodology

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Mekanisk värmeteori och strömningslära

    Author : Jean-Pierre Hamzo; [2023]
    Keywords : CFD; gas-turbine; computational fluid dynamics; atomizer; prefilmer; RANS; LES; multi-phase; experimental; numerical; atomization; spray characteristics; drop breakup; liquid fuels; liquid films;

    Abstract : Design of atomizers for gas-turbine purposes are an important ordeal. The per-formance of the atomizer directly impacts the efficiency of the gas-turbine, andconsequently, the energy extracted from the turbine. Furthermore, the design ofthe atomizer can have an impact on reducing toxic emissions. READ MORE

  5. 44. 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

  6. 45. CFD Analysis of the Flow Around a Paraglider Wing

    University essay from KTH/Teknisk mekanik

    Author : Caterina Gennari; [2023]
    Keywords : Paraglider Wing; CFD; RANS; DES; Aerodynamics; Aerodynamic Hysteresis; FSI; Deformable Structure; Membrane; Shell Elements;

    Abstract : In this study, the characteristics of the flow around a paraglider wing were investigated through the use of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations by solving both Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes equations and Delayed Detached Eddy Simulations were employed. This allowed the observation of how the unique shape of the canopy of a paraglider can influence the behaviour of the flow and how aerodynamic hysteresis can manifest on this sort of wing. READ MORE
