2. 1. Numerical experiments - a research method in fire science

   Author : Nils Johansson; Avdelningen för Brandteknik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; experimental uncertainty; accuracy; fire dynamics; compartment fires; models; experiments; Numerical experiments;

   Abstract : Fires are complex and it is hard to derive relationships from theory in fire science. Full-scale and small-scale experiments have been used with great success in order to increase the understanding of fire chemistry and fire dynamics. But, there are shortcomings and difficulties with conducting these traditional fire experiments. READ MORE

4. 2. A numerical study of two-fluid models for dispersed two-phase flow

   Author : Reynir Levi Gudmundsson; Björn Sjögreen; Anders Petersson; KTH; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Numerical analysis; two-phase flow; two-fluid mode; well-posedness; numerical experiments; Numerisk analys; Numerical analysis; Numerisk analys;

   Abstract : In this thesis the two-fluid (Eulerian/Eulerian) formulation for dispersed two-phase flow is considered. Closure laws are needed for this type of models. We investigate both empirically based relations, which we refer to as a nongranular model, and relations obtained from kinetic theory of dense gases, which we refer to as a granular model. READ MORE

   Abstract : This doctoral thesis provides a comprehensive numerical analysis and exploration of several stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs). More specifically, this thesis investigates time integrators for SPDEs with white noise dispersion. READ MORE

6. 4. Numerical and experimental study of turbulent drop breakup in high­-pressure homogenizers

   Author : Peyman Olad; Avdelningen för livsmedel och läkemedel; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; High-pressure homogenizer HPH ; Turbulent drop breakup; Computational fluid dynamics CFD ; Direct numerical simulations DNS ; Experiments;

   Abstract : Emulsification is the process of making stable mixture of two or more immiscible substances (typically oil and water). The product of this process, the emulsion, is found in various applications and industries such as food (milk and other dairy products, non-dairy alternatives, mayonnaise, salad dressing), cosmetics and pharmaceuticals (creams, lotions, intravenous medications), chemical (paints, cleaning products), etc. READ MORE

7. 5. Phosphorus transport and reduction in compact-bed filters : simulations and experiments

   Author : Amir Jourak; Andy George; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Strömningslära; Fluid Mechanics;

   Abstract : Excessive release of phosphorus from the effluent of on-site sanitation facilities to the environment is one source of aquatic pollution. The primary effect of excess phosphorus in the aquatic environment is eutrophication. READ MORE
