  2. 6. Turbulence modeling of compressible flows with large density variation

    Author : Igor Grigoriev; Arne Johansson; Stefan Wallin; Geert Brethouwer; Stefan Hickel; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Turbulence; DRSM; EARSM; active scalar; compressible flow; reacting flow; supercritical flow; Engineering Mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

    Abstract : In this study we highlight the influence of mean dilatation and mean density gradient on the Reynolds stress modeling of compressible, heat-releasing and supercritical turbulent flows.Firstly, the modeling of the rapid pressure-strain correlation has been extended to self-consistently account for the influence of mean dilatation.

  4. 7. Experimental investigation of flows related to gas turbine combustion

    Author : Dragan Stankovic; Strömningsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Mechanical engineering; combusiton; flameless; jets in cross flow; chemiluminescence; POD; LIF; PIV; Spray; Gas Turbine; single digit NOx; Premixed Combustion; hydraulics; vacuum technology; vibration and acoustic engineering; Maskinteknik; hydraulik; vakuumteknik; vibrationer; akustik;

    Abstract : The notion of "global warming" has become a major public-domain concept as an environmental threat to our future on earth. Independently of the accuracy of existing prediction of combustion emissions on the climate on earth, the concept of reducing combustion emissions has been an important political driving force in imposing more and more severe restrictions on harmful emissions from combustion.

  5. 8. Uncertainty quantification for time varying quantities in turbulent flows

    Author : Donnatella Xavier; Philipp Schlatter; Saleh Rezaeiravesh; Ricardo Vinuesa; David Moxey; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; uncertainty; variance estimator; autoregressive models; turbulence; computational fluid dynamics; Teknisk mekanik; Engineering Mechanics;

    Abstract : Quantification of uncertainty in results is crucial in both experiments and simulations of turbulence, yet this practice is notably underutilized. This thesis project delves into statistical tools within the framework of uncertainty quantification to systematically quantify uncertainties that occur in the time varying quantities of turbulence.

  6. 9. Supersonic flow separation with application to rocket engine nozzles

    Author : Jan Östlund; KTH; []
    Keywords : turbulent; boundary layer; shock wave; interaction; overexpanded; rocket nozzle; flow separation; control; side-load; experiments; models; review;

    Abstract : The increasing demand for higher performance in rocketlaunchers promotes the development of nozzles with higherperformance, which basically is achieved by increasing theexpansion ratio. However, this may lead to flow separation andensuing instationary, asymmetric forces, so-called side-loads,which may present life-limiting constraints on both the nozzleitself and other engine components.

  7. 10. A Lagrangian-Eulerian simulation method for viscoelastic flows applied to adhesive joining

    Author : Simon Ingelsten; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; volume of fluid; computational fluid dynamics; immersed boundary methods; viscoelastic flow; adhesive joining;

    Abstract : Viscoelastic flows are important for many industrial processes, such as adhesive joining, polymer extrusion and additive manufacturing. Numerical simulations enable virtual evaluation and product realization, which can support the design phase and reduce the amount of costly physical testing. However, such applications are challenging to simulate. READ MORE
