1. Numerical Studies of Flow and AssociatedLosses in the Exhaust Port of a Diesel Engine
Abstract : In the last decades, the focus of internal combustion engine development has moved towards more efficient and less pollutant engines. In a Diesel engine, approximately 30-40% of the energy provided by combustion is lost through the exhaust gases. The exhaust gases are hot and therefore rich of energy. READ MORE

2. Direct numerical simulation of turbulent flow in plane and cylindrical geometries
Abstract : This thesis deals with numerical simulation of turbulentflows in geometrically simple cases. Both plane and cylindricalgeometries are used. The simplicity of the geometry allows theuse of spectral methods which yield a very high accuracy usingrelatively few grid points. A spectral method for planegeometries is implemented on a parallel computer. READ MORE

3. Numerical Simulation of High Reynolds Number Wall Bounded Flow
Abstract : In this thesis, four different numerical methods are used for predictions of high Reynoldsnumber (Re), wall bounded flows; Large Eddy Simulation (LES) with two different subgrid(turbulence) models, the One Equation Eddy Viscosity model (OEEVM) and the MixedModel (MM), Monotone Integrated LES (MILES), Detached Eddy Simulation (DES) andReynolds Averaged Navier Stokes (RANS). The LES calculations are combined with a wallmodel based on the law-of-the-wall and in DES a hybrid RANS/LES method is used forhandling the near wall region. READ MORE

4. Modelling of Bingham Suspensional Flow : Influence of Viscosity and Particle Properties Applicable to Cementitious Materials
Abstract : Simulation of fresh concrete flow has spurged with the advent of Self-Compacting Concrete, SCC. The fresh concrete rheology must be compatible with the reinforced formwork geometry to ensure complete and reliable form filling with smooth concrete surfaces. READ MORE

5. Unsteady Numerical Simulations of Flow around Heavy Vehicles, Trains and Passenger Cars
Abstract : In this thesis several simulations have been carried out aimed at improving the knowledgeof vehicle aerodynamics and improving the flow around vehicles with respect to theaerodynamic drag. Four flows around different simplified vehicles have been considered. READ MORE
