  1. 1. Thermo-Acoustic Properties in Combustion Chambers

    Author : Guillaume Jourdain; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Mode Stability Analysis; Computational Aeroacoustics; Screech mode; Arnoldi s Method; Buzz mode; Afterburner; Gas turbine combustor; Combustion instabilities;

    Abstract : Design and analysis methods for gas turbine combustors or afterburners have to be improved in particular regarding the prediction of combustion instabilites. A methodology, which combines the use of a linearized flow solver and an Arnoldi algorithm performing the eigenmode extraction procedure, resolves eigenmodes which are candidates to these instabilities.

  2. 2. Application of Numerical Aerothermal Models on Jet Engine Combustors

    Author : Stefan Olovsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The use of numerical simulations with combustion for predicting the flow field in a gas turbine combustor or afterburner may reduce the required time in the development process. To investigate the performance of numerical simulation codes some different combustor geometries was studied. READ MORE

  3. 3. A Two-Stroke Range Extender Engine For Heavy Duty BEV applications

    Author : Lennarth Zander; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; gas exchange; after burner; single cylinder; Two-stroke engine; Range extender; BEV; Battery electric vehicles;

    Abstract : A back-up range extender (REX) is proposed to support battery electric vehicles (BEV) for heavy duty applications. A single cylinder crank case scavenged two-stroke SI-internal combustion engine (ICE) with a turbocharger system is considered powerful and small enough to be installed directly on the existing electric machine in the electric powertrain.

  4. 4. Laser Spectroscopic Techniques for Combustion Diagnostics Directed Towards Industrial Applications

    Author : Hans Seyfried; Förbränningsfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Teknik; Technological sciences; Fysik; Physics; Combustion; Gas turbine; HCCI; Engine; High-Speed; Thermographic phosphors; PLIF; LIF; Laser Diagnostics; Laser-Induced Fluorescence; Laser technology; Laserteknik; Motors and propulsion systems; Motorer; framdrivningssystem;

    Abstract : In the work presented in the thesis, different laser spectroscopic techniques were utilized for measurement of species concentrations, as well as for surface thermometry. Experiments were conducted in various combustion environments, ranging from laboratory burners to truck-sized internal combustion (IC) engines, gas turbine combustors and a full-size aircraft turbofan engine.

  5. 5. Liquid scintillators as neutron diagnostic tools for fusion plasmas : System characterization and data analysis

    Author : Federico Binda; Göran Ericsson; Michael Loughlin; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The neutrons produced in fusion devices carry information about various properties of the ions that are reacting in the machine. Measurements of the neutron flux and energy distribution can therefore be used to study the behaviour of the plasma ions under different experimental conditions. READ MORE
