  1. 1. Environmental Barrier Coatings to protect Ceramic Matrix Composites in next-generation jet engines

    University essay from Högskolan Väst/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap

    Author : Shivang Parmar; [2023]
    Keywords : Environmental barrier coating; ceramic matric composite; atmospheric plasma spray; suspension plasma spray; thermal cyclic fatigue; Barriärbeläggning; keramisk komposit; atmosfärisk plasmasprutning; suspensionsplasmasprutning; termisk cyklisk utmattning;

    Abstract : Gas turbine engine efficiency needs to be raised in order to decrease fuel consumption, greenhouse gas emissions, and expenses. Efficiency may be improved in two ways: by reducing engine weight and raising intake temperatures. READ MORE

  3. 2. Design of Experiment Based on Full Factorial CFD Spray Modelling

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Olle Faritzon; [2023]
    Keywords : CFD; spray; liquid; injection; DoE; Design of Experiment; fuel spray; Propane; LPG; OpenFOAM; Experiment; Fluid dynamics; maritime shipping; engine; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Design of experiment is a powerful tool that can reduce the amount of physical testing needed to save resources, time and money. A CFD-setup was constructed in OpenFOAM-8, simulating injection of liquid propane with a standard multi-hole injector. The model was then validated against experimental results. 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. LES modelling of spray combustion

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Arvid Åkerblom; [2021]
    Keywords : Gas Turbine; CFD; Large Eddy Simulation; Lagrangian Particle Tracking; Chemical Kinetics; Reaction Mechanism; Combustion; OpenFOAM; CHEMKIN; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Computational fluid dynamics is a powerful method for understanding the flow and combustion that occurs inside aircraft engines and will be a key tool in the transition from conventional fossil-based fuel to sustainable alternatives. Because conventional fuels have been more widely researched, an attempt at simulating the combustion of alternative fuels should be preceded by the development of a method that is capable of accurately simulating the combustion of a conventional fuel.

  6. 5. Factors influencing the generation of carbon monoxide in fires partially suppressed through water mist application

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Author : Haydn Lewis; [2020]
    Keywords : Fire safety engineering; water mist; fire suppression; carbon monoxide; water; combustion; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Fires in the built environment typically consist of diffusion flames with inefficient mixing of fuel and oxygen, resulting in a degree of incomplete combustion and the generation of carbon monoxide. Fire suppression systems, used to control the growth and spread of fire, influence the combustion reaction process. READ MORE
