  1. 1. Dynamics of bubbles across scales

    Author : Niklas Hidman; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; DNS; multiscale; lift force; scalar mixing; Bubbly flows; multiphase;

    Abstract : This thesis presents numerical investigations of bubbly flow phenomena across a wide range of relevant spatial and temporal scales. The aim is to increase our understanding of a great variety of underlying phenomena and to facilitate improved predictions of bubbly flows at all relevant scales. READ MORE

  2. 2. Numerical frameworks for small-scale bubble dynamics

    Author : Niklas Hidman; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; multiphase; phase change; DNS; moving reference frame; Bubbly flows; cavitation; laser-induced;

    Abstract : Designing efficient bubbly flow systems requires the prediction of the dynamics of the bubbles, the liquid and how the gas and liquid phases interact. Currently, the complex dynamics in bubbly flows are not yet fully explained, and we rely on incomplete models in our numerical methods. READ MORE

  3. 3. Numerical modeling of deforming bubble transport related to cavitating hydraulic turbines

    Author : Daniel Lörstad; Institutionen för energivetenskaper; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Gases; fluid dynamics; plasmas; Gaser; fluiddynamik; plasma; Energy research; Energiforskning; Direction Averaged Curvature DAC ; Direction Averaged Normal DAN ; Volume of Solid VOS ; Volume of Fluid VOF ; Lagrangian Particle Tracking LPT ; Large Eddy Simulation LES ; bubble; multiphase; turbulent flows; CFD; hydro-turbine;

    Abstract : Cavitation is a problem in many hydroelectric power plants since it can cause adverse effects on performance and damage to nearby solid surfaces. The concerns of this thesis are the numerical aspects of flow simulations in cavitating hydraulic turbines which contain several difficulties: turbulent and complex flows, steady and moving parts of the geometry, bubble transport and cavitation development.

  4. 4. Particulate Flows in Aftertreatment Systems

    Author : Henrik Ström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Modeling; Computational fluid dynamics; Exhaust gas aftertreatment; Particulate matter; Multiphase flow; Particulate flow;

    Abstract : Emissions from internal combustion engines contain many components that have a detrimental effect on the environment and on human health, such as nitrogen oxides (NOx) and particulate matter (PM). In addition, the final product of any combustion of fossil fuel - carbon dioxide (CO2) - contributes to global warming. READ MORE

  5. 5. Ultrasonic characterization of materials and multiphase flows

    Author : Johan Carlson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Signalbehandling; Signal Processing;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with three different applications of ultrasound measurement technology. In process industries like the mining industry, the oil and gas industry, and the paper pulp industry, multiphase flows play an important role. READ MORE
