  1. 1. 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

  2. 2. Computational Analysis of Spray Deflector Designs

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner, marina system, flyg- och rymdteknik, rörelsemekanik

    Author : Osman Gyokhan Ali; [2023]
    Keywords : Planing Hulls; Spray Deflector; Hull Modification; Computational fluid dynamics CFD ; resistance; trim angle; heave; CD-adapco Star CCM ; Numerical Ventilation; Phase Replacement; Modified HRIC Scheme; Volume Fraction Source Term; Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes RANS ; Volume of Fluid VOF ; SST K-Omega Turbulence Modelling; Höghastighetshantverk; modelldesign; spraydeflektor;

    Abstract : Planing hull is a common hull design concept which decreases the resistance while speed is increasing for a specific speed range. It is also suitable for hull modifications to achieve higher efficiency. Spray deflector is a promising hull modification which offers extra resistance decreasing and less vertical acceleration for planing hulls. READ MORE

  3. 3. Verification and validation of the implementation of an Algebraic Reynolds-Stress Model for stratified boundary layers

    University essay from KTH/Teknisk mekanik

    Author : Martina Formichetti; [2022]
    Keywords : Atmospheric boundary layer; turbulence modelling; stratified flows; eddy viscosity; eddy diffusivity;

    Abstract : This thesis studies the implementation of an Explicit Algebraic Reynolds-Stress Model(EARSM) for Atmospheric Boundary Layer (ABL) in an open source ComputationalFluid Dynamics (CFD) software, OpenFOAM, following the guidance provided by thewind company ENERCON that aims to make use of this novel model to improvesites’ wind-field predictions. After carefully implementing the model in OpenFOAM,the EARSM implementation is verified and validated by testing it with a stratifiedCouette flow case. READ MORE

  4. 4. CFD investigation of Plate Channels

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Anton Johannesson; [2022]
    Keywords : Plate Heat Exchanger; Turbulence modelling; Generalized k-omega; GEKO; CFD; Computational Fluid Dynamics; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Alfa Laval has a wide product range for plate heat exchangers that can be applied in most industries. The constant development of new and old heat exchangers drive the need for new and efficient methods that can reliably be used in the development process. READ MORE

  5. 5. Investigation of the wing design and endurance of an ultralight electrical aircraft

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Innovation

    Author : Vanda Ericson; Jonathan Palmgren; [2022]
    Keywords : Aerodynamics; Electrical Aviation; CFD; Endurance; Drag; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The goal of this thesis was to explore the conversion of a propeller driven two-seater combustion airplane to an electrical airplane. Four different wing designs were considered. Two variations of Blackwing Sweden AB’s current Blackwing wing (BW), a longer wing (BW-L) and a shorter wing (BW-S), as well as a new wing with a different airfoil (GW). READ MORE
