  2. 1. Numerical Investigation of the Aerodynamic Vibration Excitation of High-Pressure Turbine Rotors

    Author : Markus Jöcker; KTH; []
    Keywords : Aeroelasticity; Aerodynamics; Stator-Rotor Interaction; Excitation Mechanism; Unsteady Flow Computation; Forced Response; High Cycle Fatigue; Turbomachinery; Gas-Turbine; High-Pressure Turbine; Turbopump; CFD; Design;

    Abstract : The design parameters axial gap and stator count of highpressure turbine stages are evaluated numerically towards theirinfluence on the unsteady aerodynamic excitation of rotorblades. Of particular interest is if and how unsteadyaerodynamic considerations in the design could reduce the riskofhigh cycle fatigue (HCF) failures of the turbine rotor. READ MORE

  4. 2. Simulation-driven design : Motives, Means, and Opportunities

    Author : Ulf Sellgren; KTH; []
    Keywords : CAD; CAE; FE method; Metamodel; Object model; PDM; Physical behavior; System; Mechanical engineering; Maskinteknik;

    Abstract : Efficiency and innovative problem solving are contradictory requirements for productdevelopment (PD), and both requirements must be satisfied in companies that strive to remainor to become competitive. Efficiency is strongly related to ”doing things right”, whereasinnovative problem solving and creativity is focused on ”doing the right things”. READ MORE

  5. 3. Design, Optimization and Evaluation of a Transonic Aeroelastic Rig

    Author : Simeng Tian; Andrew R. Martin; Mauricio Gutierrez Salas; Dieter Peitsch; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Transonic compressor; Aeroelastic rig; Design; CFD; Unsteady flow; Energiteknik; Energy Technology;

    Abstract : The compressor is one of the most essential components of a modern turbomachinery engine. This component is exposed to vibrations that without proper design can damage structural integrity and lead to failure. READ MORE

  6. 4. Fatigue properties of cut and welded high strength steels : Quality aspects in design and production

    Author : Thomas Stenberg; Zuheir Barsoum; Kenneth Alasdair MacDonald; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Welding; Fatigue assessment; Cutting; Weld quality; Fatigue design; Fracture Mechanics; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik;

    Abstract : This doctoral thesis concerns fatigue of welded structures. Welding is one of the world’s most common joining methods and it is frequently used in several structural applications in many fields. Some examples are construction vehicles, loader cranes, trucks, busses, forestry and agricultural machines, bridges and ships. READ MORE

  7. 5. Methods for Reducing the Complexity of Geometrical Structures Based on CFD Programming : Time Efficient Simulations Based on Volume Forces Coupled with Single and Two-phase Flow

    Author : Kamal Rezk; Lars Nilsson; Jonas Berghel; Erik Dahlquist; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Numerical design cycle; CFD; porous media; volume forces; heat exchanger; vacuum dewatering; time efficient simulations; Miljö- och energisystem; Environmental and Energy Systems;

    Abstract : Throughout recent years, computer based programs have been applied to solve and analyse industrial problems encountered global fields such as automobile design for reduction of CO2-gas, designing wind parks aimed at increasing power output etc. One of these developed programs is Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) which numerically solves complex flow behaviour based on computer power.
