   Author : Mathieu Gaborit; Peter Göransson; Olivier Dazel; Lucie Rouleau; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; uncertainties; thin layers; numerical methods; simplified models; poroelastic materials; incertitudes; couches fines; méthodes numeriques; modèles simplifiés; matériaux poroélastiques; osäkerheter; tunna lager; numeriska metoder; förenklade modeller; poroelastiska medier; Engineering Mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

   Abstract : The global trend towards quieter environments has been one of the key topics of acoustics research for years. The recent tightening of the regulations on noise exposure as well as the many reports on the impact of noise on human health confirm this situation and stress ever more the need for innovative mitigation strategies.

   Abstract : This thesis covers two main topics. The first is numerical modelling ofcavitating diesel injector flows, focusing on describing suchflows using asingle-phase cavitation model based on a barotropic equation of statetogetherwith a homogenous equilibrium assumption. READ MORE

5. 18. Numerical Modelling of Diesel Spray Injection and Turbulence Interaction

   Author : Fabian Kärrholm Peng; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Computational Fluid Dynamics; Spray; Cavitation; Cavitation; Turbulence Model; AtomizationTurbulence Model; Diesel; Atomization;

   Abstract : It has been established by many authors that numerical simulations ofDiesel sprays, using a Lagrangian description for the liquid phase,are particularly sensitive to the scale of the computational cellscompromising the mesh. There have been many suggestions regardingmeans to reduce the dependency on the mesh by improving the componentsubmodels, but few have addressed the gas phase turbulence modelling. READ MORE

6. 19. Large eddy simulation using linear eddy sub-grid mixing modeling

   Author : Salman Arshad; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Linear Eddy Model; Large Eddy Simulation; LES-LEM; Splicing;

   Abstract : As emissions regulations are getting stricter and efficiency requirements of engines are increasing, different concepts to improve combustion are beinginvestigated. For example lean stratified premixed combustion, homogeneous charge compression ignition(HCCI), use of more exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) to reduce NOx etc. READ MORE
