  2. 11. Mitigation of urban storm water runoff through application of computational fluid dynamics

    Author : Kaj Pettersson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; microstructure; infiltration; Green roof; CFD; wind-driven rain; building facade.; lattice Boltzmann;

    Abstract : This thesis covers computational methods for improving the ability of green roofs to mitigate storm water runoff in urban environments. Roofs with living vegetation, known as green roofs, have been used for this purpose however quantification of their ability to slow and stop rainfall runoff has not been undertaken to a large degree.

  4. 12. 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

  5. 13. 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

  6. 14. Fluid and Solid Particle Dynamics in Stirred Vessels

    Author : Mattias Ljungqvist; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; mixing time; pitched blade turbine; impeller modelling; stirred vessels; computational fluid dynamics; multi-fluid model; suspension of solids; phase-Doppler anemometry; laser Doppler anemometry; closed vessels;

    Abstract : The present thesis deals with the fluid dynamics of stirred vessels and particularly those that are to be used in conjunction with solids suspensions. Stirred vessels are very common in the process industry and large amounts of energy can be saved by optimising their operation. READ MORE

  7. 15. Computational fluid dynamics application in indoor air quality and health

    Author : Parastoo Sadeghian; Sasan Sadrizadeh; Sture Holmberg; Ann Tammelin; Olof Sköldenberg; Catherine Noakes; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Ventilation systems; Indoor air quality IAQ ; Bacteria-carrying particles BCP ; Infectious respiratory disease; Operating room OR ; Thermal comfort; Computational fluid dynamics CFD ; ventilationssystem; bakteriebärande partiklar; infektionssjukdomar i luftvägarna; operationsrum; termisk komfort; numerisk strömningsmekanik; Strömnings- och klimatteori; Fluid and Climate Theory;

    Abstract : Indoor air quality directly affects the comfort, performance, and well-being of occupants. Indoor pollution can cause immediate or long-term health effects and has been responsible for 4.1% of global deaths in recent decades. READ MORE
