  1. 6. Fluid motion analysis in the cryogenic tanks of the upperstage of Ariane 5 during the ascent phase

    University essay from KTH/Aerodynamik

    Author : Christophe Montsarrat; [2017]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In the frame of the improvement of the performances for Ariane 5, an analysis iscarried out to explain the pressure drop observed in the ascent phase of some flights inthe liquid hydrogen (LH2) tank of the upper stage. This stage is mainly idle until therocket is out of the atmosphere but is submitted to important excitation throughoutthe ascent phase in the atmosphere. READ MORE

  3. 7. Numerical & physical modelling of fluid flow in a continuous casting mould : Flow dynamics studies for flexible operation of continuous casters

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

    Author : Henrik Barestrand; Tobias Forslund; [2016]
    Keywords : numerical modelling; physical modelling; fluid flow; continuous casting; casting; mould flow; fluid dynamics; flexible operation of continuous casters; LES; DPM; large eddy simulation;

    Abstract : The current demands on Swedish steel industry to produce low quantity batches of specialized products requires research on steel casting processes. There are several physical processes that need be taken into account for this problem to be viewed in full light such as thermal-processes, solidification and fluid dynamics. READ MORE

  4. 8. Design of a fuel tank in Volvo frontloader L120 : Effects of the baffles on reducing liquid sloshing

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för maskinteknik (MT)

    Author : maría del Mar Diaz del Pino; Jakub sznurowski; [2014]
    Keywords : Sloshing phenomena; baffles; steel tank; front loader; vorticity;

    Abstract : Sloshing phenomena could seriously damage tank structures and reduce its lifetime. On the one hand, studies directly recommend the use of baffles to solve these problems, nevertheless on the other hand the existence of small tanks or plastic tanks without baffles confuse and complicate the case.

  5. 9. FLUID-STRUCTURE INTERACTION : EFFECTS OF SLOSHING IN LIQUID-CONTAINING STRUCTURES

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Paul Thiriat; [2013]
    Keywords : fluid-structure interaction; sloshing; tank; seismic action; hydrodynamic pressure; velocity potential; boundary element method; Housner; resonant sloshing;

    Abstract : This report presents the work done within the framework of my master thesis in the program Infrastructure Engineering at KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm. This project has been proposed and sponsored by the French company Setec TPI, part of the Setec group, located in Paris. READ MORE

  6. 10. Control of Water Content and Retention in Hydropower Plant Cascades

    University essay from KTH/Reglerteknik

    Author : Esbjörn Gullhamn; [2004]
    Keywords : Override Selector; State feedback Control; Saint Venant Equations; Hydropower Plant; Hydraulics Modelling.;

    Abstract : The discharge through a river hydropower plant must be controlled such that the water level at a pre-specified point close to the facility is kept within given bounds. The controllers used today have a somewhat demanding tuning and often create too much amplified, unnatural discharge variations resulting in unsatisfactory control performance. READ MORE
