2. 1. Fluid Mechanics of Vertical Axis Turbines : Simulations and Model Development

   Author : Anders Goude; Olov Ågren; Carlos Simão Ferreira; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : Wind power; Marine current power; Vertical axis turbine; Wind farm; Channel flow; Simulations; Vortex model; Streamtube model; Control system; Graphics processing unit; CUDA; Fast multipole method; Engineering Science with specialization in Science of Electricity; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot elektricitetslära;

   Abstract : Two computationally fast fluid mechanical models for vertical axis turbines are the streamtube and the vortex model. The streamtube model is the fastest, allowing three-dimensional modeling of the turbine, but lacks a proper time-dependent description of the flow through the turbine. READ MORE

5. 3. A Realizable Hybrid Mixture-Bubble Model for Cavitating Flows

   Author : Ebrahim Ghahramani; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Multi-scale model; Homogeneous mixture model; Cavitation; Disperse multiphase flow; Eulerian-Lagrangian model; OpenFOAM;

   Abstract : Cavitating multi-phase flows include an extensive range of cavity structures with different length scales, from micro bubbles to large sheet cavities that may fully cover the surface of a device. To avoid high computational expenses, incompressible transport equation models are considered a practical option for simulation of large scale cavitating flows, normally with limited representation of the small scale vapour structures.

6. 4. Numerical simulation and analysis of multi-scale cavitating flows using a hybrid mixture-bubble model

   Author : Ebrahim Ghahramani; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Homogeneous mixture model; Lagrangian bubble model; CFD; Cavitation; OpenFOAM; Multiphase flow; Hybrid model; Multi-scale;

   Abstract : The aim of this research is to model and analyse multi-scale cavitating flows with a certain emphasis on small sub-grid vapour structures. Cavitating flows include vapour structures with different length scales, from micro-bubbles to large cavities. READ MORE

7. 5. Heat transfer in ordered porous media with application to batteries

   Author : Amin Moosavi; Staffan Lundström; Anna-Lena Ljung; Tomas Muld; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; battery thermal management system; heat exchanger; cylindrical lithium-ion battery; cross-flow; analytical model; URANS model; thermal evaluation; wall effect; spacing effect; temperature distribution; Strömningslära; Fluid Mechanics;

   Abstract : Environmental concerns, resource depletion, energy security, technological advancements, and global policies are just a few of the variables influencing the global energy perspective. In the case of technological advancement, lithium batteries play a key role in the development of a more sustainable energy infrastructure. READ MORE
