  2. 21. Experimental and numerical studies of the flow of pulp suspensions

    Author : Julia Claesson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Pulp suspension; Laser Doppler Anemometry; Flow behavior; Turbulence; Ultrasound Velocity Profiling; Boundary layer; Local yield stress;

    Abstract : Large amounts of pulp suspensions are handled in the pulp and paper industry daily. In order to produce the final product, paper, a lot of energy is required, e.g. for pumping, mixing and screening the suspensions. READ MORE

  4. 22. Studies of Transient and Pulsating flows with application to Hydropower

    Author : Joel Sundström; Michel Cervantes; Mehdi Seddighi; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Turbulent flows; Pipe flow; Unsteadiness; Friction modeling; Strömningslära; Fluid Mechanics;

    Abstract : The rotational motion of a hydraulic turbine runner makes pulsating flows ubiquitous in different locations of the machine. The cyclic loading thus induced may generate large pressure forces acting periodically on both stationary and rotating parts. READ MORE

  5. 23. Turbulence-resolving Simulations of Swirling Flows

    Author : Ardalan Javadi; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Swirling Flow; URANS; Hydropower; Hybrid URANS-LES; SAS; Flow Control; Turbulence Modeling; Vortex Breakdown; DDES; LES;

    Abstract : A series of numerical investigations is undertaken using a wide range of turbulence mod-els including conventional and non-conventional URANS models, hybrid URANS-LESmethods and LES to capture a large variety of physical mechanisms that produce pres-sure pulsations in the swirling flows. The available knowledge about these pulsations,which are usual in hydropower, are still far from complete. READ MORE

  6. 24. Experimental design and vortex analyses in turbulent wake flows

    Author : Bengt E. G. Fallenius; Jens H. M. Fransson; Henrik Alfredsson; Marianna Braza; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; bluff bodies; wake flow; experimental design; vortex detection; flow control; asymptotic suction boundary layer;

    Abstract : A new experimental setup for studies on wake flow instability and its control that successfully has been designed and manufactured, is introduced and de- scribed. The main body is a dual-sided flat plate with an elliptic leading edge and a blunt trailing edge. READ MORE

  7. 25. Grouting of Fractured Rock with Silica Sol; Grouting design based on penetration length

    Author : Johan Funehag; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Grouting; hydraulic test; sand column; propagation; penetration length; pipe flow; aperture; transmissivity; colloidal silica; silica sol; rheology; gelling liquids; field study;

    Abstract : ABSTRACTRecent grouting projects in Sweden have concentrated on the grout itself. The only grout normally used in Sweden is cement-based. During the past 10 years, the acceptable flow of water into tunnels has been reduced significantly. The current requirements mean that an average fracture aperture of around 0. READ MORE
