Abstract:
This thesis is devoted to the study of rotor flows. A literature survey suggested that possible improvements can be achieved via better simulation of turbulence and prediction of the elastic blade de- formation. While the limits of the currently used URANS turbulence models have been shown, accurate predictions can only be achieved if the blade elasticity is taken account due to the large deformations a rotor blade can undergo in flight. An aeroelastic coupling strategy consists in three steps: computing the flow field, computing the structural deformation and transferring data between the CFD

Abstract:
The dynamic response of turbine flowmeters in low pressure gas flows (i. e. where the rotational inertia of the fluid is negligible) is well understood and methods for correcting meter signals for a lack of response are available. For liquid flows there has been a limited amount of experimental work on the response of meters to step changes but no reports have been found of the response of meters to sinusoidally pulsating flows. "Small" turbine meters are expected to behave differently from "large" meters for a number of reasons: a smaller meter would generally have: (1) a larger percentage of

Rotor blade flows occur in numerous physical systems from helicopters to fans, and from propellers to food mixers. Many previous studies have concentrated on the laminar flow generated by a set of rotors but in many practical cases the flow is turbulent, a setting in which previous research appears to be mainly experimental or purely numerical. The thesis examines turbulent rotor flow as its prime feature, before moving on to the impact of the ground and side structures on the flow.
