1. Propulsion modelling of a generic submarine propeller
University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)Abstract : Self propulsion modelling is important in order to accurately simulate ships and submarinesusing Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). However, fully resolved simulations of hull andpropeller geometries are computationally heavy and time consuming. As such there is a greatinterest in lower order CFD models of propellers. READ MORE

2. Forced response numerical investigation of a transonic compressor rotor
University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)Abstract : The present thesis discusses the forced response of a rotor’s bladed-disk when excited by the periodic force produced by a wake generator, or Inlet Guide Vane (IGV),with 8 equally-spaced blades. These components are part of an axial transonic compressor rig, moreover the Transonic Compressor Darmstadt 1 (TCD1), located at the Technical University of Darmstadt. READ MORE

3. Correlation of numerical simulation methods and failure criteria to experimental burst test
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaper; Lunds universitet/HållfasthetsläraAbstract : Predicting the burst speed of turbine rotors is a costly and challenging task. Therefore, the scope of this thesis is to perform a correlation study between numerical simulation methods and failure criteria to experimental over-speed burst test of the Prometheus turbine rotor.

4. A simplified vortex method for wind turbine simulation
University essay from KTH/Strömningsmekanik och Teknisk AkustikAbstract : A new vortex model for wind turbines was developed in order to evaluate the loads at the blades and other important characteristics of interest for the wind industry such as power and thrust coefficients. Nowadays, the calculation of these quantaties is done in a reliable and precise manner with LES simulation using actuator line or actuator disk models. READ MORE

5. Partially Parabolic Wind Turbine Flow Modelling
University essay from KTH/MekanikAbstract : Climate change is an evermore urging existential treat to the human enterprise. Mean temperature and greenhouse gas emissions have in-creased exponentially since the industrial revolution. But solutions are also mushrooming with exponential pace. READ MORE
