  5. 3. Data Assimilation in Fluid Dynamics using Adjoint Optimization

    Author : Johan Lundvall; Vladimir Kozlov; Per Weinerfelt; Matts Karlsson; Anders Szepessy; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Data assimilation; Inverse problem; Adjoint optimization; Burgers equation; nonlinear; Landweber; Initial pressure; Euler flow; Applied mathematics; Tillämpad matematik;

    Abstract : Data assimilation arises in a vast array of different topics: traditionally in meteorological and oceanographic modelling, wind tunnel or water tunnel experiments and recently from biomedical engineering. Data assimilation is a process for combine measured or observed data with a mathematical model, to obtain estimates of the expected data. READ MORE

  6. 4. Computational Fluid Dynamics of Processes in Iron Ore Grate-Kiln Plants

    Author : Per Burström; Xue-Song Bai; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Strömningslära; Fluid Mechanics;

    Abstract : Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) approaches have been developed to studypollution reduction in the manufacturing phase and heat transfer in the packed beds of iron ore pellets. CFD is a versatile tool that can be applied to study numerous problems in fluid mechanics. READ MORE

  7. 5. Aerodynamic Design and Optimization of Intermediate Ducts for High By-pass Ratio Jet Engines

    Author : Fredrik Wallin; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Intermediate transition ducts; vortex generators; S-shaped ducts; response surface methodology; source term model; optimization;

    Abstract : Demands on improved efficiency and reduced noise levels cause a strive toward high by-pass ratio commercial aero engines. This results in multi-spool aero engines with small high-pressure ratio cores and large fans. The low-pressure system has a lower rotational speed and a larger radius than the high-pressure core system. READ MORE
