  1. 1. CFD and Experimental Study of Refuelling and Venting a Fuel System

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Mekanisk värmeteori och strömningslära

    Author : Aditya Naronikar; Anton Riström; [2019]
    Keywords : CFD; VOF; multiphase; refuelling; gasoline; ORVR; automotive; volvo;

    Abstract : In 1999, California Air Resources Board (CARB) implemented a regulation that required all gasoline cars sold in California be fitted with an Onboard Refueling Vapor Recovery System (ORVR). The ORVR system is designed to prevent Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) from escaping into the atmosphere during refuelling by storing the gas vapours in a carbon canister. READ MORE

  4. 3. On Flow Predictions in Fuel Filler Pipe Design - Physical Testing vs Computational Fluid Dynamics

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Mekanisk värmeteori och strömningslära; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska högskolan

    Author : Michael Gunnesby; [2015]
    Keywords : Fuel filler pipe; CFD; computational fluid dynamics; VOF; volume of fluid; Volvo; multiphase; refueling; spitback; splashback;

    Abstract : The development of a fuel filler pipe is based solely on experience and physical experiment. The challenge lies in designing the pipe to fulfill the customer needs. In other words designing the pipe such as the fuel flow does not splash back on the fuel dispenser causing a premature shut off. READ MORE
