  2. 21. Anisotropy-resolving subgrid-scale modelling using explicit algebraic closures for large eddy simulation

    Author : Amin Rasam; Arne Johansson; Bernard Geurts; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Turbulence; large eddy simulation; explicit algebraic subgridscale model; passive scalar; stochastic modelling; periodic hill flow; Engineering Mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

    Abstract : The present thesis deals with the development and performance analysis ofanisotropy-resolving models for the small, unresolved scales (”sub-grid scales”,SGS) in large eddy simulation (LES). The models are characterised by a descriptionof anisotropy by use of explicit algebraic models for both the subgridscale(SGS) stress tensor (EASSM) and SGS scalar flux vector (EASSFM). READ MORE

  4. 22. Large Eddy Simulation of Turbulent Swirling Flows in Combustor Related Geometries

    Author : Yajing Wu; Strömningsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Swirling flow; swirler; vortex breakdown; precessing vortex core PVC ; large eddy simulation LES .;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with the physics of turbulent swirling flows. Large eddy simulation (LES) method is used to investigate the vortex breakdown process, the precessing vortex core (PVC), and the effect of swirl number and flow field configuration on swirling flows. The study is based on an open source CFD code, \textit{OpenFoam}. READ MORE

  5. 23. Large Eddy Simulation of Turbulent Combustion in PPC and Diesel Engines

    Author : Rickard Solsjö; Strömningsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; large eddy simulation LES ; turbulent spray combustion; Lagrangian particle tracking LPT ; diesel engines; partially premixed combustion PPC engines.;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with large eddy simulations (LES) of turbulent combustion processes in direct injection internal combustion (IC) engines. Modeling of direct injection IC engine combustion involves modeling of turbulent spray/gas two-phase flow, modeling of chemical reactions of large hydrocarbon fuels and coupling of chemistry with turbulent flows.

  6. 24. Explicit algebraic subgrid-scale stress and passive scalar flux modeling in large eddy simulation

    Author : Amin Rasam; Arne V. Johansson; Shia-Hui Peng; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Turbulence; Large eddy simulation; explicit algebraic subgrid-scale model; passive scalar; stochastic modeling; backscatter; Fluid mechanics; Strömningsmekanik;

    Abstract : The present thesis deals with a number of challenges in the field of large eddy simulation (LES). These include the performance of subgrid-scale (SGS) models at fairly high Reynolds numbers and coarse resolutions, passive scalar and stochastic modeling in LES. READ MORE

  7. 25. A Study of Mach 0.75 Jets and Their Radiated Sound Using Large-Eddy Simulation

    Author : Niklas Andersson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Jet noise; CAA; LES; Large Eddy Simulation; Computational Aero-Acoustics;

    Abstract : Large-Eddy Simulations (LES) of a compressible nozzle/jet configuration have been carried out. Two jets were simulated, an isothermal jet and a jet with a higher temperature than the surrounding air. The Mach number was in both cases 0.75 and the jet Reynolds number was 50,000. READ MORE
