  1. 1. On Film Cooling of Turbine Guide Vanes : From Experiments and CFD-Simulations to Correlation Development

    Author : Hossein Nadali Najafabadi; Matts Karlsson; Esa Utriainen; Mats Kinell; Valery Chernoray; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Film Cooling; Gas Turbine; Correlation; CFD; Cylindrical holes; Fan-shaped Holes;

    Abstract : To achieve high thermal efficiency in modern gas turbines, the turbine-inlet temperature has to be increased. In response to such requisites and to prevent thermal failure of the components exposed to hot gas streams, the use of different cooling techniques, including film cooling, is essential. READ MORE

  2. 2. 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

  4. 4. CFD Simulations for Film Cooling : Reduced Models at Engine Like Conditions

    Author : Andreas Bradley; Matts Karlsson; Karl Storck; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In gas turbines some parts are exposed to combustion gases with temperatures well above the melting temperature of the material. Therefore, various cooling techniques are utilized in order to protect the parts exposed to these hot gases. One such technique, film cooling, is a common and well established way to protect the exposed parts. READ MORE

  5. 5. Realistic simulations of delta wing aerodynamics using novel CFD methods

    Author : Stefan Görtz; Arthur Rizzi; Miguel Visbal; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Space and plasma physics; CFD; aerodynamics; flow physics; steady; unsteady; delta wing; vortical flow; Rymd- och plasmafysik; Space physics; Rymdfysik;

    Abstract : The overall goal of the research presented in this thesis is to extend the physical understanding of the unsteady external aerodynamics associated with highly maneuverable delta-wing aircraft by using and developing novel, more efficient computational fluid dynamics (CFD) tools. More specific, the main purpose is to simulate and better understand the basic fluid phenomena, such as vortex breakdown, that limit the performance of delta-wing aircraft. READ MORE
