2. 1. Numerical Investigations of Incompressible Turbomachinery Applications using OpenFOAM

   Author : Olivier Petit; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

   Abstract : Swirling flow and unsteady phenomena are common in technical applications, such as turbines, pumps and compressors. The objective of this work is to get a good understanding of the turbulent flow features inside such applications, and to validate the computational techniques used for such applications. READ MORE

4. 2. Towards Full Predictions of the Unsteady Incompressible Flow in Rotating Machines, Using OpenFOAM

   Author : Olivier Petit; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Turbulent Flow; Sliding Grid; Hydro Power; Kaplan Turbine; OpenFOAM; CFD;

   Abstract : The main objective of the present work is to validatemethodologies for accurate numerical predictions of the incompressible flow ofwater in the U9 Kaplan turbine model. The term “prediction” implies that the useof detailed experimental data for boundary conditions should be avoided, andthat all important features of the studied case should be included. READ MORE
