  1. 1. Numerical investigation of tonal noise sources from centrifugal fan

    Author : Martin Ottersten; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Computational Aeroacoustics; Tonal Noise; Centrifugal Fan; Blade Passing Frequency;

    Abstract : Heating, ventilating, and air conditioning systems (HVAC) are today an important part of many people's life. They provide a sufficient amount of airflow with the correct temperature, quality, and humidity. The negative side is the noise it produces. Many improvements have been made in building development to reduce noise from the environment. READ MORE

  2. 2. Centrifugal compressor flow instabilities at low mass flow rate

    Author : Elias Sundström; Mihai Mihaescu; Håkan Nilsson; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Centrifugal Compressor; Large Eddy Simulation; Internal Com- bustion Engine; Aeroacoustics; Modal Flow Decomposition;

    Abstract : Turbochargers play an important role in increasing the energetic efficiency andreducing emissions of modern power-train systems based on downsized recipro-cating internal combustion engines (ICE). The centrifugal compressor in tur-bochargers is limited at off-design operating conditions by the inception of flowinstabilities causing rotating stall and surge. READ MORE

  3. 3. Flow instabilities in centrifugal compressors at low mass flow rate

    Author : Elias Sundström; Mihai Mihaescu; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Centrifugal compressor; flow instabilities; rotational flows; rotating stall; surge; compressible Large Eddy Simulation; Engineering Mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

    Abstract : A centrifugal compressor is a mechanical machine with purpose to convert kineticenergy from a rotating impeller wheel into the fluid medium by compressingit. One application involves supplying boost air pressure to downsized internalcombustion engines (ICE). READ MORE

  4. 4. Centrifugal microfluidics-based point of care diagnostics at resource limited settings

    Author : Ahmad Saleem Akhtar; Aman Russom; Ines Fernandes Pinto; Nicole Pamme; KTH; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; microfluidics; centrifugal microfluidics; point-of-care; low-cost; diagnostics; agarose beads; immunoassays; colorimetry; fluorescence; cytokines; nucleic acid amplification; isothermal amplification; COVID-19; portable; smartphone; resource limited settings.; Biotechnology; Bioteknologi;

    Abstract : Advancements in medical diagnostics have allowed us to understand the underlying mechanism and treat the root cause for many diseases which had been causing morbidity and mortality up until this point in human history. Furthermore, many of the standard diagnostic procedures have now been transformed to provide answers at or near the point-of-care. READ MORE

  5. 5. Investigation of Tonal Noise Sources from Centrifugal Fan using Detached Eddy Simulation

    Author : Martin Ottersten; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Computational aeroacoustics; Blade passing frequency; Centrifugal fan; Low-frequency rotation; Tonal noise.;

    Abstract : Since we spend the majority of our time indoors, heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems have become a more and more important part of many people´s life. They provide a sufficient amount of airflow with the correct temperature, quality, and humidity. READ MORE
