  1. 21. Numerical simulation and analysis of multi-scale cavitating flows using a hybrid mixture-bubble model

    Author : Ebrahim Ghahramani; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Homogeneous mixture model; Lagrangian bubble model; CFD; Cavitation; OpenFOAM; Multiphase flow; Hybrid model; Multi-scale;

    Abstract : The aim of this research is to model and analyse multi-scale cavitating flows with a certain emphasis on small sub-grid vapour structures. Cavitating flows include vapour structures with different length scales, from micro-bubbles to large cavities. READ MORE

  2. 22. Experimental Studies of Primary Break-up of Diesel Engine Fuel Injector Sprays

    Author : Zachary Falgout; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Water sprays; Sprays; Turbulence; Transparent injectors; Diesel engines; Cavitation; Primary break-up; Orifice flow; Multiphase flows; Transcritical fluids;

    Abstract : This thesis will focus on experimental studies of primary breakup of pressure-atomized sprays. The industrial application that this thesis will address is fuel sprays in modern Diesel engines, and so the focus will be sprays emitting into relatively slow-moving, high pressure, high-temperature gases.

  3. 23. On Numerical Solution Methods for Block-Structured Discrete Systems

    Author : Petia Boyanova; Maya Neytcheva; Oleg Iliev; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Preconditioning techniques; Finite element method; Two-by-two block matrices; Optimal order methods; AMLI method; Cahn-Hilliard equation; Multiphase flow; Inexact Newton method; Beräkningsvetenskap med inriktning mot numerisk analys; Scientific Computing with specialization in Numerical Analysis;

    Abstract : The development, analysis, and implementation of efficient methods to solve algebraic systems of equations are main research directions in the field of numerical simulation and are the focus of this thesis. Due to their lesser demands for computer resources, iterative solution methods are the choice to make, when very large scale simulations have to be performed. READ MORE
