  1. 1. Experimental Studies of Effusion Cooling

    Author : Bernhard Gustafsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; laser-Doppler anemometry; infrared thermography; film cooling; flow visualization; full coverage film cooling; jet in crossflow; effusion cooling;

    Abstract : The desire to increase the efficiency of jet engines, has led to an increase in the temperature in the combustion chambers and in the turbine stage. There is thus an interest in efficient cooling methods. Film cooling and effusion cooling are often used where there is a great heat load. READ MORE

  2. 2. On Tyre Rotation Modelling and Cooling Flow Measurements

    Author : Teddy Hobeika; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; CFD; Aerodynamics; Tyres; cooling flow; air mass flow;

    Abstract : With the technological computer advancements, vehicle development is relying more and more on simulations as an alternative to testing. A similar trend follows in aerodynamic development of vehicles where Computational Fluid Dynamics(CFD) simulations are increasing in complexity and accuracy. READ MORE

    Abstract : Efficiency improvement in turbomachines is an important aspect in reducing the use of fossil-based fuel and thereby reducing carbon dioxide emissions in order to achieve a sustainable future. Gas turbines are mainly fossil-based turbomachines powering aviation and land-based power plants. READ MORE

  4. 4. Experimental and numerical investigations of underhood flow for vehicle thermal management

    Author : Randi Franzke; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; CFD; MRF; Laser-Doppler anemometry; Underhood flow; Axial fan; Cooling flow; RBM; Vehicle thermal management; Simplified underhood environment;

    Abstract : Electrified vehicles are an essential part in reducing emissions from the transportation sector. Their development comes with a variety of new challenges. Most of them revolve around the energy efficiency of the vehicles as it directly relates to the range that can be covered with one charge. READ MORE

  5. 5. Experimental Heat Transfer, pressure drop, and Flow Visualization of R-134a in Vertical Mini/Micro Tubes

    Author : Wahib Owhaib; Björn Palm; Tassos Karayiannis; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Minichannel; microchannel; heat transfer; pressure drop; single-phase; two-phase; flow boiling; flow visualization; dry out; bubble behavior; flow pattern.; Mechanical energy engineering; Mekanisk energiteknik;

    Abstract : For the application of minichannel heat exchangers, it is necessary to have accurate design tools for predicting heat transfer and pressure drop. Until recently, this type of heat exchangers was not well studied, and in the scientific literature there were large discrepancies between results reported by different investigators. READ MORE
