  1. 1. Multiscale & Multiphysics Modelling of Thrust Pad (Air) Bearings

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

    Author : Nipon Roy; [2023]
    Keywords : Finite element modelling; Air bearing; Multiphysics simulations; Air lubrication; surface texture; Topology optimization;

    Abstract : Without lubrication, machines are not imaginable to perform over a long period of time and complete their designated operations. With its omnipresent availability, the air is capable of functioning as a lubricant in long operations very efficiently. Moreover, thrust bearings support axial loads and transmit power at the same time under heavy loads. READ MORE

  3. 2. Aerodynamic Analysis of Reflex Airfoils at Low Reynolds Numbers

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

    Author : Alexander Elliott Meyer Ströborg; [2022]
    Keywords : low Reynolds number; reflex airfoils; CFD; XFOIL;

    Abstract : Low Reynolds number airfoil analysis has become increasingly significant as urban air mobility vehicles and unmanned aerial vehicles surge in popularity. The Green Raven project at KTH Aero aims to use reflex airfoils where little data is available beyond classical analysis. READ MORE

  4. 3. Fluid flow features in swirl injectors for ethanol fueled rocket : - Analysis using computational fluid dynamics

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

    Author : Emil Vejlens; Dylan De Jourday; [2022]
    Keywords : Fluid Mechanics; Rocket Science; Fuel injectors; Computational Fluid Dynamics; Swirling Flows; Fuel Mixing;

    Abstract : A swirl injector for a rocket engine being developed by \emph{AESIR} (Association of EngineeringStudents in Rocketry) was simulated with different geometric parameters. The swirl injector is usedto atomize the ethanol used as fuel and to create a spray that mixes well with the oxidizer withinthe combustion chamber. READ MORE

  5. 4. Modeling and optimisation of a rotary kiln reactor for the processing of battery materials

    University essay from KTH/Kemiteknik

    Author : Danial Khawaja; [2021]
    Keywords : Granular flow; rolling mode; suspension model; two-fluid model; multiphase flow; Granulärt flöde; rullningsläge; suspensions modell; tvåvätskemodell; flerfasmodell;

    Abstract : Roterugnar är cylindriska kärl som används för att höja materials temperaturer i en kontinuerlig process som kallas för kalcinering. Roterugnar kan tillämpas i olika processer såsom reduktion av oxidmalm samt återvinning av farligt avfall. READ MORE

  6. 5. An Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian Finite Element Method for Shock Wave Propagation: Validating Simulations of Underwater Explosions

    University essay from KTH/Numerisk analys, NA

    Author : Sebastian Sandström; [2021]
    Keywords : finite element; applied mathematics; computational mathematics; hydrocode; arbitrary lagrangian-eulerian; LS-DYNA; tillämpad matematik; beräkningsteknik; finita elementmetoden; hydrokod; arbitrary lagrangian-eulerian; LS-DYNA;

    Abstract : Underwater explosions are often modeled with Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) Finite Element Methods. The objective of this thesis is to validate the simulation method, with respect to the propagating shock wave. A two-dimensional axisymmetric model of a spherical TNT charge submerged in water is simulated using LS-DYNA. READ MORE
