  3. 2. Implementation of Dyson equation to accelerate convergence in RS-LMTO-ASA code

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Materialteori

    Author : Elis Uebel; Viktor Frilén; [2024]
    Keywords : Density functional theory; Dyson equation;

    Abstract : First-principle calculations is a key ingredient for us to understand, improve and design new materials. Density functional theory (DFT) [1] has proven to be a very powerful tool and a number of different versions exist depending on the problem at hand. READ MORE

  5. 4. Investigation of fuel and water injection in gas turbine combustion : Evaluate the methodologies available in Star CCM+ for modeling of water injection in simplified combustor using liquid and gas fuels

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Mekanisk värmeteori och strömningslära

    Author : Sanger Shinwari; [2023]
    Keywords : Diesel and Methane fuel combustion; FGM combustion model; Lagrangian multiphase modelling; Inert Stream; Water injection; STAR CCM ;

    Abstract : The negative impact of gas turbine emissions on the environment and human health is a growing concern. Recent studies suggest injecting water into the combustion process effectively reduces emissions and increases power output. However, this approach presents new challenges that need to be thoroughly investigated. READ MORE

  6. 5. Simulation of low frequency acoustic waves in small rooms : An SBP-SAT approach to solving the time dependent acoustic wave equation in three dimensions

    University essay from

    Author : Alva Fährlin; Olle Edgren Schüllerqvist; [2023]
    Keywords : room acoustics; numerical methods; SBP; SAT; acoustic wave equation.;

    Abstract : Low frequency acoustic room behaviour can be approximated using numerical methods. Traditionally, music studio control rooms are built with complex geometries, making their eigenmodes difficult to predict mathematically. READ MORE
