  1. 16. Software Benchmark and Material Selection in an Exhaust Manifold : Thermo-mechanical fatigue simulation of an exhaust manifold in AVL Fire M

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap och fysik (from 2013)

    Author : Oskar Rombo; [2018]
    Keywords : thermomechanical fatigue; TMF; simulation; viscoplastic;

    Abstract : Today, there is a great focus on downsizing the engines, this means that the engines are made smaller in size but retain the same power. This in combination with the drive to increase the power of the engines has led to the engine components being exposed to high thermal loads. Today’s engines also use very high cylinder pressure.

  3. 17. Estimation of Engine Inlet Air Temperature in Fighter Aircraft

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Reglerteknik

    Author : Gustav Sandvik; [2018]
    Keywords : system identification; grey box modeling; engine inlet temperature; heat transfer; fighter aircraft;

    Abstract : An accurate estimate of the gasturbine inlet air temperature is essential to the stability of the engine since its control depends on it. Most supersonic military aircrafts have a design with the engine integrated in the fuselage which requires a rather long inlet duct from the inlet opening to the engine face. READ MORE

  4. 18. Compressor CFD simulation method development : A CFD study

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Johan Björk; [2018]
    Keywords : CFD; centrifugal compressor; CFX; CHT; Conjugate Heat Transfer; Surge;

    Abstract : This master thesis project consisted of three parts that all were performed through CFD simulations with the purpose to develop Scania's methods in the subject of CFD. All parts included simulations on Scania's SC92T70 centrifugal compressor. READ MORE

  5. 19. On the Feasibility of Thermochemical Energy Storage for CSP plants : Technology Evaluation and Conceptual Design

    University essay from KTH/Kraft- och värmeteknologi

    Author : Katerine Antil Martini; [2018]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This master thesis focuses on the review of the thermochemical energy storage (TCES) concept and its application in Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) plants. The TCES concept has been reviewed and critically analyzed, highlighting the advantages and digging into the challenges that this technology must overcome to reach commercial scale. READ MORE

  6. 20. Thermal design optimization by geometric parameterization of heat sources

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Avdelningen för beräkningsvetenskap

    Author : Christoffer Eriksson; [2017]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In this master thesis, a thermal design optimization has been performed. By solvingthe two dimensional steady state conduction convection equation using the finiteelement method in a unit square domain with a source term corresponding tocomponents heated by resistive heating, the objective functional was formulated as aminimization of the combination of a low temperature and small temperaturedifferences inside the domain.
