    Abstract : A method for simulating the cooled gas turbine is demonstrated. Based on equations and other knowledge found in the literature, a first-law thermodynamic, non-dimensional model is established and implemented in the equation-solving, programmable software IPSEpro. READ MORE

  2. 2. Numerical Simulation of Turbulent Flows for Turbine Blade Heat Transfer Applications

    Author : Jonas Larsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; k-.omega.; k-.epsilon.; explicit Runge-Kutta; finite volume; turbine; numerical method; non-linear; Navier-Stokes; supersonic; two-equation; external heat transfer; stagnation flow; two-dimensional; transition; low-Reynolds; turbulence model; impulse blade;

    Abstract : Turbine blade heat transfer is an important engineering problem characterized by complex flow fields and high turbulence levels. This thesis is focused on using a full Navier-Stokes solver with two-equation eddy-viscosity models to predict external heat-transfer in single-stage, linear, two-dimensional uncooled turbine cascades.

    Abstract : Ocean energy is a field of growing interest when it comes to renewable energy thanks to its high density of energy per unit area, and to the high predictability. Conversion of hydrokinetic energy, found in marine currents, is the utilization of the energy in free-flowing water for conversion to electric energy. READ MORE
