1. Computational Fluid Dynamics and Modeling of a Free Surface Flow
University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)Abstract : This project deals with the CFD modelling of a free surface flow. The aim is to develop and validate a fast and accurate numerical model for stratified two-phase flows. Volume of Fluid (VOF) multiphase model is employed. The purpose is to use the developed numerical model for the design of an element within a compact nuclear reactor. READ MORE

2. Evaluating the Performance of Propulsion System Elements in an Aerospace Company
University essay from KTH/Kraft- och värmeteknologiAbstract : This paper examines two examples of testing activities of sub-components of a 300kN methalox first-stage rocket engine developed by Pangea Aerospace, namely, theinjectors and the cryogenic pumps. One of the difficulties of these test campaignsis to evaluate the performances of these sub-components without using cryogenicpropellants and in conditions differing from flight conditions. READ MORE

3. Multiscale & Multiphysics Modelling of Thrust Pad (Air) Bearings
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematikAbstract : 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

4. Thermal and flow field validation of lattice Boltzmann method solver
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematikAbstract : Computational fluid dynamics, abbreviated CFD, is a valuable tool for several engineering applications. Applications such as heating, cooling or drying are some examples of areas where CFD is used. READ MORE

5. A coupling method using CFD, radiative models and a surface model to simulate the micro-climate
University essay from KTH/Teknisk mekanikAbstract : The increasing demand for energy, depletion of fossil fuels, rising global warming, and greenhouse gas emissions have stimulated the need for widespread development and adoption of renewable energy sources (RES) worldwide. Among these sources, solar energy has emerged as a major contender to meet the growing demand. READ MORE
