  1. 21. Experimental Study on Truck Related Power Losses: The Churning Losses in a Transmission Model and Active Flow Control at an A-pillar of Generic Truck Cabin Model

    Author : Erwin Adi Hartono; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Hot wire anemometry; Machine learning; Computational Fluid Dynamics; A-Pillar; Transmission; Flow separation; Churning losses; CFD; Gearbox; Torque measurement; Particle Image Velocimetry; Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics.; Active Flow Control; SPH; Curve fit; Synthetic Jets; Load independent power losses; Aeration; Flow visu- alization;

    Abstract : The fight with global warming constantly forces vehicle manufacturers to innovate, in order to be able to reduce the CO2 emissions of their product. This means that marginal efficiency gains in every component are considered beneficial for total reduction of CO2 emissions. READ MORE

  2. 22. Flow field investigation of rotating wheels on passenger cars

    Author : Christoffer Landström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : The importance of aerodynamics of road-going vehicles on the total driving resistance and hence fuel consumption is well known to vehicle manufactures. At present, upper body aerodynamics of passenger cars is relatively well understood. READ MORE

  3. 23. Towards better understanding of the flow inside industrial processes: a CFD study

    Author : Simon Johansson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Strömningslära; Fluid Mechanics;

    Abstract : Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is a method to numerically pre- dict flow patterns. In this thesis the method is used to predict the flow in a hydrochloric acid regeneration plant located at SSAB EMEA in Borl ̈ange and to investigate the flow in a burner region of a rotary kiln at LKAB in Kiruna.

  4. 24. Predicting flow-generated noise from HVAC components

    Author : Oscar Kårekull; Mats Åbom; Gunilla Efraimsson; Joachim Golliard; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; flow noise; noise prediction; HVAC; flödesalstrat ljud; bullerprediktion; HVAC;

    Abstract : More energy efficient fans, i.e. larger sizes running at lower speeds, in Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems decrease the fan noise and increase the importance of flow generated noise in other system components, e.g. READ MORE
