  2. 21. Optimization of Chemical Kinetic Mechanisms and Numerical Simulations of Industrial Gas Turbine Burners

    Author : Abdallah Abou-Taouk; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAS-SST; LES; Gas Turbine Combustion; Swirling Flow; Global Mechanism; Finite Rate Chemistry; Partially Premixed Flames; Chemistry Reduction; RANS;

    Abstract : Increasing demands on environmentally friendly energy conversion indicate that pollutants need to be reduced. Computational Fluid Dynamics is efficiently used today in turbulent reaction flow simulations to gain a deeper understanding of the combustion process and consequently be able to improve combustor design and reduce emissions.

  4. 22. Turbulence Transport Modelling in Gas Turbine Related Applications

    Author : Andreas Sveningsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; RANS; secondary flow; realizability; V2F; transition;

    Abstract : Computational fluid dynamics is a cornerstone in gas turbine engine design. It is used to optimize shapes of turbine and compressor airfoils, to predict heat transfer to gas turbine hot parts, to reduce the amount of pollutants that form when fuel is burnt, to reduce gas turbine noise and so on.
