  1. 21. Transient growth of disturbances in laminar pipe flow

    Author : Lars Bergström; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mathematics; Matematik;

    Abstract : Transient growth of disturbances is studied theoretically in pipe Poiseuille flow and experimentally both in pipe and plane Poiseuille flow. The theoretical results, based on the initial value problem, show that a large transient amplification occurs for small, angular dependent disturbances in pipe Poiseuille flow although all modes are damped.

  2. 22. Flow and turbulence in the discharge stream of different agitators for stirred tanks

    Author : Tamás Kovács; Livsmedelsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; fluiddynamik; Gaser; plasmas; fluid dynamics; Gases; Livsmedelsteknik; Food and drink technology; Scaba; 6SRGT; pseudo turbulence; Rushton; stirred tank; plasma; Mechanical engineering; hydraulics; vacuum technology; vibration and acoustic engineering; Maskinteknik; hydraulik; vakuumteknik; vibrationer; akustik;

    Abstract : In this thesis, the fluid dynamic properties of the conventional Rushton turbine and another impeller type, the Scaba Radial flow Gas dispersing Turbine (with six concave blades) are compared. For comparison, point-wise velocity measurements were made in the discharge of the two turbine types using Hot-Wire Anemometry in constant temperature mode (CTA) with a split film probe. READ MORE

  3. 23. Wind turbines over a hilly terrain: performance and wake evolution

    Author : Ann Hyvärinen; P. Henrik Alfredsson; Antonio Segalini; Leonardo P. Chamorro; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Fluid mechanics; wind turbines; complex terrain; wind-tunnel measurements; Strömningsmekanik; vindturbiner; komplex terräng; vindtunnelmätningar; Engineering Mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

    Abstract : The aim of this licentiate thesis is to investigate wind-turbines placed in a complex-terrain environment. This is done by studying the flow around small-scale wind-turbine models placed over a landscape model with hills, and by comparing the results with corresponding data obtained over a flat terrain model.

  4. 24. Experimental studies of wind turbine wakes : power optimisation and meandering

    Author : Davide Medici; Henrik Alfredsson; Martin O.L. Lansen; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; wind energy; power optimisation; active control; yaw; vortex shedding; wake meandering; Fluid mechanics; Strömningsmekanik;

    Abstract : Wind tunnel studies of the wake behind model wind turbines with one, two and three blades have been made in order to get a better understanding of wake development as well as the possibility to predict the power output from downstream turbines working in the wake of an upstream one. Both two-component hot-wire anemometry and particle image velocimetry (PIV) have been used to map the flow field downstream as well as upstream the turbine. READ MORE
