  1. 16. Mitigation of Pressure Pulsations in Axial turbine draft tube with jet injection or solid rod protrusion: A Numerical investigation

    Author : Henrik Holmström; Cécile Münch-Alligné; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Vortex rope mitigation; vortex rope; Strömningslära; Fluid Mechanics;

    Abstract : The introduction of intermittent renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar power, to the power grid, demands some hydraulic turbines to operate at unfavorable operating conditions not initially designed for. Strong swirl develops at loads below the best efficiency point, (BEP) due to angle mismatch between the guide vanes and the fixed runner blades typical for Francis and Propeller turbines. READ MORE

  2. 17. Experimental investigation of flows related to gas turbine combustion

    Author : Dragan Stankovic; Strömningsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Mechanical engineering; combusiton; flameless; jets in cross flow; chemiluminescence; POD; LIF; PIV; Spray; Gas Turbine; single digit NOx; Premixed Combustion; hydraulics; vacuum technology; vibration and acoustic engineering; Maskinteknik; hydraulik; vakuumteknik; vibrationer; akustik;

    Abstract : The notion of "global warming" has become a major public-domain concept as an environmental threat to our future on earth. Independently of the accuracy of existing prediction of combustion emissions on the climate on earth, the concept of reducing combustion emissions has been an important political driving force in imposing more and more severe restrictions on harmful emissions from combustion.

  3. 18. Aerothermal Investigation of an Intermediate Turbine Duct

    Author : Carlos Arroyo; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; flowfield measurements; heat transfer measurements.; Intermediate turbine duct;

    Abstract : Intermediate turbine ducts are used to guide the flow in turbofan engines from the short-radius high-pressure turbine to the large-radius low-pressure turbine. The demand for more efficient and silent jet engines and with a reduced environmental impact requires turbofans with increasingly higher by-pass ratios. READ MORE

  4. 19. Experimental Studies of Turbulent Mixing in Impinging Jets

    Author : Rong Ding; Strömningsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; LDV; Gases; fluid dynamics; plasmas; Gaser; fluiddynamik; plasma; PIV LIF; TR- LIF; TR- PIV; perturbed- and swirling- impinging jets; passive control; frequency spectrum; turbulent fluxes; impinging jets; turbulent mixing;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns the experimental study of mixing and flow characteristic in turbulent circular impinging jets without and with jet orifice manipulators (i.e. passive-fixed perturbations atthe nozzle exit), without and with swirl. READ MORE

  5. 20. Turbine Outlet Guide Vane Flows

    Author : Johan Hjärne; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Spalart-Allmaras model; k-ω SST model; linear cascade; secondary flows; turbine exhaust casing; RSM; k-ε realizable model; turbine rear frame; engine mount bump; tail bearing housing; Outlet guide vane;

    Abstract : New design goals on modern jet engines often leads to more highly loaded turbines with fewer stages in order to save weight and cost. This gives higher swirl angles into the outlet guide vane (OGV), implying a more difficult aerodynamic design. READ MORE
