  2. 21. Experimental and numerical investigations of underhood flow for vehicle thermal management

    Author : Randi Franzke; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; CFD; MRF; Laser-Doppler anemometry; Underhood flow; Axial fan; Cooling flow; RBM; Vehicle thermal management; Simplified underhood environment;

    Abstract : Electrified vehicles are an essential part in reducing emissions from the transportation sector. Their development comes with a variety of new challenges. Most of them revolve around the energy efficiency of the vehicles as it directly relates to the range that can be covered with one charge. READ MORE

  4. 22. Effects of Flow Structure on Particle Separation in Dissolved Air Flotation

    Author : Måns Lundh; Institutioner vid LTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; plasma; Environmental technology; pollution control; Miljöteknik; kontroll av utsläpp; Gases; fluid dynamics; plasmas; Gaser; fluiddynamik; Teknik; Technological sciences; modelling; retention time distribution; acoustic doppler velocimeter; flow structure; separation; water treatment; wastewater treatment;

    Abstract : Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF) is a separation process in water and wastewater treatment. The removal function is based on reducing the density of the particle by producing aggregates of the particles and added micro-bubbles of air, thus lifting the aggregates to the water surface, where they can be removed as sludge.

  5. 23. Fluid dynamics and flow structures of wood fibres suspended in gas flows

    Author : Olof Melander; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; two-fluid model; fibres; flocculation; multiphase flow; flow regimes; particle transport; fibre suspensions; Particle Image Velocimetry; Computational Fluid Dynamics; lift force; concentration measurement;

    Abstract : The flow of wood fibres suspended in gas plays a major role in the MDF (Medium Density Fibreboard) production process. Development of machinery in this industry has traditionally been based on experience. Only recently has the use of numerical methods such as CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) become an important part of the development process. READ MORE

  6. 24. A Study of the Swirling Flow Pattern when Using TurboSwirl in the Casting Process

    Author : Haitong Bai; Mikael Ersson; Pär Jönsson; Yogeshwar Sahai; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; flow pattern; swirling flow; TurboSwirl; CFD; turbulence models; water model; flödesmönster; roterandeflöde; TurboSwirl; CFD; turbulensmodeller; vattenmodell; Metallurgical process science; Metallurgisk processvetenskap;

    Abstract : The use of a swirling flow can provide a more uniform velocity distribution and a calmer filling condition according to previous studies of both ingot and continuous casting processes of steel. However, the existing swirling flow generation methods developed in last decades all have some limitations. READ MORE
