Abstract:

This master thesis project consisted of three parts that all were performed through CFD simulations with the purpose to develop Scania's methods in the subject of CFD. All parts included simulations on Scania's SC92T70 centrifugal compressor. Part one consisted of performing a mesh study for the purpose of reliability, to investigate the convergence of different parameters by refining the boundary layer. The method used is an inflation option called First layer thickness. Five different meshes were generated where the Richardson extrapolation method was used to examine the parameters between t

Abstract:

Nel presente lavoro di tesi vengono studiati, per mezzo di simulazioni numeriche di fluidodinamica computazionale, diversi manufatti idraulici, partendo da casi più semplici la cui trattazione teorica e sperimentale è ampiamente conosciuta, come flusso attraverso una soglia e moto uniforme in canale rettangolare, fino a casi complessi di cui non esistono formulazioni teoriche ma solo sperimentali come pozzetti di salto cilindrici. In particolare, come caso conclusivo, si studia il comportamento di un manufatto ripartitore realmente esistente in un impianto di trattamento delle acque reflue.

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) has been around for many years. It is a computer tool that can be used to find the hydrodynamic fluid performances. In ship design it is used in a wide area from smoke propagation to resistance estimations. It is however in resistance estimations that CFD have had most focus and research. There are many tools a designer can make use of nowadays. Most of the tools are computer based. This is optimization algorithms, computer aided design (CAD) and computational fluid dynamics (CFD).

Abstract:

Usually elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) is modelled using the Reynolds equation for the fluid flow and the elastic deformation is calculated following the Hertzian contact theory. In this thesis a CFD approach for modelling EHL is established. The full Navier-Stokes equations are used which enables the entire flow domain to be modelled and which can resolve all gradients inside the contact. Liquid properties are introduced where the viscosity is piezo-viscous, shear-thinning and temperature dependent and where the density is a function of pressure. The phenomenon of cavitation is taken in

It is concluded that Jaguar can use CFD in the evaluation stage of the engine design process, although not in the concept stage of design. The CFD predictions are shown to be useful for detecting flow related faults and determining the general flow trends, but they should not be used as an absolute measure of the flow variables.

Abstract:

Many flow regimes in Nuclear Reactor Safety Research are characterized by multiphase flows, with one phase being a continuous liquid and the other phase consisting of gas or vapour of the liquid phase. In dependence on the void fraction of the gaseous phase the flow regimes e.g. in vertical pipes are varying from bubbly flows with low and higher volume fraction of bubbles to slug flow, churn turbulent flow, annular flow and finally to droplet flow. In the regime of bubbly and slug flow the multiphase flow shows a spectrum of different bubble sizes. While disperse bubbly flows with low gas volu

Abstract:

The aim of this thesis is to provide research into turbocharger regulation, and analyze the force load of vanes in the VNT mechanism of Garrett turbocharger by CFD simulation. In the thesis there is one model with two different mesh densities. It describes the relevance of supercharging vehicle engines and the kinds of supercharging aggregates in the introduction. Then, the thesis is divided into two chapters. The first chapter provides research, describing primary principle of supercharging, turbocharger construction and kinds of air regulation. The practical part of the thesis solves the for

Abstract:

This diploma thesis is focused on CFD analysis of M-601 turboprop engine nacelle mounted on L-410 commuter aircraft. Calibrating exercise is performed at the beginning of the thesis in order to be more familiar with CFD problems. Next parts of the thesis are chronologically divided with respect to project progress, namely suitable geometrical model creation, mesh creation in order to obtain computational model, calculation using CFD methods, results evaluation and proposal of possible construction transformation at the conclusion.

Abstract:

This work is focused on computational modelling of mixing fluids in pipeline with static mixers. Main objective is to analyze several selected static mixers in a particular industrial application, namely dosing of the aluminium sulphate solution in the clarification process for potable water treatment. The analysis focuses on the degree of mixedness and pressure loss of individual mixers. Further, the aim of this work is to process the search of available types of static mixers. The benefit of this work is at least an effort to motivate the reader to deeper understanding of the mixing fluids,

Abstract:

In this paper is carried out basic design and calculation of tube heat exchanger with a straight tube bundle with installed systém of disk and doughnut baffles. The calculation included pressure losses and heat transfer coefficient of tubular space and shell side. Then CFD model was made for parametric study, which was focused on influence of change of the baffles geometry on the heat output of the exchanger and the pressure loses on the shell side.

Includes bibliographical references (p. 67-70).<br>Stirred tanks agitated with Rushton turbines are commonly used in industry, for instance mixing processes and flotation systems. The need for more efficient systems in industries has led to the study of fluid flow within the tanks upon agitation; so that a better understanding of the phenomena can help in the optimisation of the tanks. In the recent years, efforts have been made towards the development of predictive methods using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). Among the various numerical works presented, emphasis was laid mainly on single

Abstract:

A better understanding of turbine performance and its sensitivity to variations in the inletboundary conditions is crucial in the quest of further improving the efficiency of aero engines.Within the research efforts to reach this goal, a high-pressure turbine test rig has been designedby Rolls-Royce Deutschland in cooperation with the Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt(DLR), the German Aerospace Center. The scope of the test rig is high-precision measurement ofaerodynamic efficiency including the effects of film cooling and secondary air flows as well as theimprovement of numerical pred
