  1. 16. Automating the CAD to Virtual Reality Pipeline for Assembly Simulation

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Maskinkonstruktion

    Author : Gustav Eriksson; Anton Engberg; [2020]
    Keywords : CAD; Unreal Engine; Virtual Reality; VR; Import; Automation; Assembly; Simulation; VR Training;

    Abstract : Virtual reality is emerging as a valuable tool in the manufacturing industry, as it allows engineers to place themselves in a virtual environment in which they can inspect and evaluate their 3D designs, providing a sense of scale not available through a 2D screen. Siemens Industrial Turbomachinery AB currently uses physical prototypes to assess whether their designs work from an assembly perspective, which can be expensive and time consuming to make and are often downscaled.

  2. 17. Construction of a Heat Transfer Rig based on Energy Balance for Rapid Production of Correlations for Additively Manufactured Geometries

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

    Author : Joaquin Quesada Zeljkovic; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This thesis has set the first milestones towards building a Nusselt number correlation that adapts to the current state of art designing and manufacturing processes at Siemens Industrial Turbomachinery AB, focusing on cooling mini-channels produced with Additive Manufacturing.  Additive manufacturing (AM), also known as 3D printing, is a gamechanger technology that has revolutionised manufacture and design know-how, bringing down production cost, time and waste.

  3. 18. Evaluation of CFD Methods for Prediction of Total Temperature and Total Pressure Distribution in Gas Turbines

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

    Author : Lars Fredrik Wahlgren; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This thesis work was performed as a collaboration between the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm and Siemens Industrial Turbomachinery in Finspång. It was undertaken with the purpose of investigating the use of CFD methods in ANSYS CFX to predict flow mixing in gas turbines. READ MORE

  4. 19. AA-CAES physical modelling: integration of a 1D TES code and plant performance analysis

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad kärnfysik

    Author : Luca Santo; [2018]
    Keywords : energy storage; balancing; grid; AA-CAES; CAES; peaks; energy scenarios; s-function; simulink; simscape; matlab; C ; TES; thermal energy storage; dumping; demand side management; power systems; turbine; compressor; cavern; CAS; compressed air; heat exchange;

    Abstract : The focus of this thesis work was the development of an approachto couple a previosly existing Thermal Energy Storage (TES) modelwritten in C++ with a Simulink/Simscape plant model to simulate anAdvanced Adiabatic Compressed Air Energy Storage (AA-CAES) plant.After the creation and validation of such tool, the complete modelwas used to run simulations, with the aim of assessing the AA-CAESplant's performance under multiple patterns of charge anddischarge.

  5. 20. Crack propagation calculations in non-elastic metals

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Material- och solidmekanik

    Author : Máren Ingá Baer; [2018]
    Keywords : crack propagation; fracture mechanics;

    Abstract : It is important to know the lifespan of a component, thus services can be planed. At Siemens Industrial Turbomachinery AB (SIT AB) develop and produce gas and steam turbines, the turbines are heavily strained by thermal and centrifugal forces during their life span which lead to cracking.
